Abstract The survey was conducted to determine total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol levels in 990 adults (473 men and 517 women) in Yonaguni Island. The data obtained were compared with those in normal subjec...ts in Japan cited from the reference reported on Japanese Circulation Journal 47 ; 1351-1358, 1983. Total cholesterol (TC) levels significantly increased with age in female, but not significantly in male. The mean value in any age was significantly lower than that of Japan, cited from the reference, by 19.5-29.8 mg-dl. HDL cholesterol (HDL) levels were highest at 20-29 years group and gradually decreased with age in female, however those in male showed no significant decrease with age. TC was well correlated to body weight, %Fat, and blood pressures. HDL showed reverse correlation with body weight and %Fat, but no correlation with blood pressures.show more
