title: [Relation of arterial pressure, blood cholesterol and glucose tolerance to body weight (based on data from a population preventive study)].
abstract: The relationship of arterial blood pressure and blood levels of cholesterol and glucose (1 hour after a 75 g glucose load) to body weight was assessed. Body weight can be used as an easily-measurable indicator of the efficacy of preventive measures with respect to the above-mentioned coronary risk factors. The data were derived from a study of 6109 males, aged 40-59, carried out within a cooperative multifactorial coronary disease prevention program in Kaunas. The degree of correlation was assessed on the basis of single examinations, and the variation of the levels of the risk factors in question was examined in relation to changes in body weight over a period of time. Quantitative estimates of change in blood pressure and blood cholesterol and glucose levels corresponding to a weight change of 1 kg were obtained.
