Serum Cholesterol and Triglyceride

An Epidemiological and Pathogenetic Interpretation

FRED J. SCHILLING M.D.1, GEORGE CHRISTAKIS M.D.1, ABRAHAM ORBACH M.S.1, and WILLIAM H. BECKER M.D.1

Serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels were determined in 875 male and 989 female urban office workers. The means and standard errors for these lipids are presented by age and sex.

Correlation coefficients between serum cholesterol and serum triglyceride indicate a positive relationship for 8 of 10 age categories for male subjects and in 3 of 10 age categories for the female, all 3 occurring after the 5th decade.

The relationship of relative weight to each of the lipids is presented. No trend appears to exist.

The rate of increase in serum cholesterol and triglyceride by age are interpreted in the light of their possible pathogenetic influence on coronary heart disease.
