Atherosclerosis risk factors in the inhabitants of the nascent Coal Basin of Lublin region.
There were examined 222 men and 253 women over 18 years of age, selected at random from among country people living in the area of the nascent Coal Basin of Lublin district. There was determined their height and body weight, degree of overweight, general fat content in the body, arterial systolic and diastolic blood pressure as well as blood serum cholesterol concentration, concentration of triglicerides, glucose and uric acid in the blood. It was found out that the level of studied vascular atherosclerosis risk factors in the population under study was lower than the level found by the Polish Experiment in other populations.
