The epidemiological study on the correlation between serum lipids and cerebro-cardiovascular disease

Jpn Circ J. 1975 Mar;39(3):293-8. doi: 10.1253/jcj.39.293.

Abstract

1. There were significant correlation between hyperlipidemia and obesity, hypertension, abnormal ECG and abnormal eyeground. 2. The incidence of cerebral hemorrhage was closely associated with hypertension but not with hyperlipidemia. 3. It was proved that hypertension with both hyper-Ch and hyper-TG was highly related to the development of cerebral infarction. 4. It seemed that the incidence of myocardial infarction and angina pectoris was related to hypertension with hyper-Ch. 5. Therefore, the present study suggested that the control of hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia was useful for the prevention of cerebro-cardiovascular disease.
