Regional serum cholesterol differences in Belgium: do genetically determined cardiovascular risk factors contribute?

International journal of epidemiology - 1 Aug 1998

Cobbaert C, Mulder P

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Differences in serum lipid distribution and mortality from ischaemic heart disease have repeatedly been reported between Belgian northerners and southerners. We investigated whether serum lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) and apolipoprotein (apo) E polymorphism were involved. METHODS: Fasting serum lipids, apo A-I and B, and Lp(a) levels were examined in randomly selected, 20-39 year old Belgian males and...
