Abstract
In a study of 1426 males and 1391 females at birth the mean concentrations of cholesterol in total serum, in the sum of very low density and low density lipoproteins and in high density lipoprotein were significantly higher in females than in males. No sex difference was present in the concentration of triglycerides either in total serum or in the lipoprotein fractions.Keywords
