title: [Lipid parameters in a homogeneous population sample in relation to age and sex].
abstract: The authors have examined the total cholesterol, the HDL cholesterol, the LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and the HDL cholesterol/total cholesterol ratio on 313 men and 305 women divided into groups in relation with age (40 years, 40-60 years, 60 years). Significant differences have emerged comparing these different subgroups as regards the considered parameters. About examined population, we have observed higher value of all principal seric lipids than national media. Implications of these data in the evaluation of cardiovascular disease are discussed.
