Distribution of High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol According to Relative Body Weight, Cigarette Smoking and Leisure Time Physical Activity
ABSTRACT. The relationship between HDL cholesterol and relative body weight, cigarette smoking and leisure time physical activity were examined in 7 338 healthy men and 6 768 healthy women aged 20–53 years, living in Finnmark County, Northern Norway. The independent effects of the three factors were...
