title: [Chromium and diabetes. Relationships to serum levels of cholesterol, triglycerides and lipoproteins].
abstract: The authors examined 91 adult diabetic subjects to evidence any possible correlation between the levels of serum chromium and those of cholesterol, triglycerides and lipoprotein. The calculation of Bravais Galton's correlation coefficient did not reveal any correlation between these parameters. However the authors confirmed that the levels of serum chromium in adult diabetic subjects were significantly lower than in normal subjects, although there was no correlation between rate of glycemia and chromium.
