Overview

For 2009–2010, 21.3% of adults aged 20 and over had low HDL cholesterol (less than 40 mg/dL). The percentage of adults with low HDL cholesterol was higher for men (31.4%) than for women (11.9%). Percentages among men were also higher than those among women of the same racial and ethnic group. For men, the percentage with low HDL cholesterol was lower among non-Hispanic black men than non-Hispanic white or Hispanic men. No racial or ethnic differences were found among women in the percentage with low HDL cholesterol.[1]

Low HDL Epidemiology and Demographics

Prevalence

  • In 2009–2010, 21.3% of adults aged 20 years and over had low HDL cholesterol level (less than 40 mg/dL) in the United States.
  • In Europe, the prevalence of low HDL-cholesterol was estimated to be approximately 33% among men and 40% among women, with very low HDL-cholesterol present in 14% (both genders combined). A higher prevalence was reported among diabetic patients compared to the general population.[2]

Gender

  • During 2009–2010, approximately 31% of men and 12% of women had low levels of HDL cholesterol. Percentages among men were also higher than those among women of the same racial and ethnic group.[3]

Shown below are diagrams depicting the prevalence of low HDL cholesterol by age group and sex in the United States between 2009 and 2010 (Source:CDC.gov).

  • In Europe, the prevalence of low HDL-cholesterol was estimated to be approximately 33% among men and 40% among women.[4]

Race

  • For men, the percentage with low HDL cholesterol was lower among non-Hispanic black men than non-Hispanic white or Hispanic men.[3]
  • No racial or ethnic differences were reported among women with low HDL cholesterol.[3]

Age

The percentage of adults with low HDL cholesterol declines with age for men and women.
