SERUM LIPID AND LIPOPROTEIN CONCENTRATIONS IN MILITARY ACADEMY GRADUATES-TRENDS FROM 1952 THROUGH 1960

Abstract

Biennial measurements of serum cholesterol, phospholipid, low and high density lipoprotein concentrations, and body weight are recorded for a group of more than 400 men who have been followed from average age 19.6 through 27.5 years. In general, serum lipid and low density lipoprotein concentrations increased between 1952 and 1958, and either remained unchanged or decreased slightly between 1958 and 1960. The high density lipoprotein concentration decreased in each sample year since first measured in 1956.
