title: [Characteristics of the lipid spectrum in miners].
abstract: Serum lipids were studied in workers of a mining enterprise situated in mid-altitude areas who were affected by some unfavourable occupational factors (noise, vibration, dustiness, psychological and physical stresses). They were compared with those in a number- and age-matched group of employees of an instrument-making plant who resided in the plain and were unexposed to the above adverse factors. The miners were found to have greater mean levels of triglycerides and potentially atherogenic lipoprotein cholesterol. The mean lipid levels were higher with the miners' age and length of occupation whereas the duration of residence in mid-altitude areas had no noticeable influence on lipid levels.
