What does it measure?
The Triglycerides test measures:The number of Triglycerides within the blood.Triglycerides are a kind of body fat (lipid). Chemically, Triglycerides contain three (‘tri-‘) molecules of carboxylic acid combined with a molecule of alcohol glycerol (‘-glyceride’).The Triglycerides test is typically done as a neighbourhood lipid profile which incorporates other tests like cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL).Atherosclerosis may be a disease in which plaque (made from fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances) builds up inside the arteries (blood vessels), leading to a narrowing of the lumen. This restricts the flow of blood to the organs of the other parts of the body.Increased levels of Triglycerides can also be seen in metabolic syndrome (a cluster of metabolic risk factors for disorders, type 2 diabetes, and stroke). Very high triglyceride values can cause inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis).
