[Total serum cholesterol in children 8-15 years of age].
The authors evaluated the difference in the health status of two groups of boys and girls aged 8-15 years, a total of 1037 children. The larger group, 790 children is from Teplice and the other group, a total of 347 children from Roudnice nad Labem. The authors discuss the total serum cholesterol level in the two groups. They provide information on mean serum cholesterol levels in children of comparable age and the significance of differences in relation to age and sex. The assembled values made it possible to calculate percentile values at the 90th and 95th percentile level for children of both areas and thus to examine and evaluate larger groups of children incl. their relatives and to detect critical total cholesterol levels calling for treatment and intervention.
