title: [Genetic analysis of the structure of relations between certain physiologic traits. II. Analysis of glucose tolerance indices and plasma cholesterol levels].
abstract: A genetic analysis of the characteristics of sugar curve (138 pairs) and cholesterol levels (CS) in the plasma (283) was carried out on a twin sample of 18-40 years old, taken from the Twin Register. Estimation of heritability were 0.66 for the sugar level in the blood before taking breakfast (S0), 0.5 for the sugar level 1 hour after taking 50 g of glucose (S1); 0.43 for the sugar level 2 hours after taking glucose (S2), and 0.38 for CS. There were genetic correlations between all the four characteristics, and they were 0.7 for S0-S1; 0.12 for S1-S2; 0.6 for S0-S2. Genetic correlation between the characteristics of sugar curve and the CS levels were 0.28 for CS-S0; 0.38 for CS-S1; 0.26 for CS-S2.
