The differences in mortality and incidence rates of ischaemic heart disease between the Polish and the Czechoslovak population prompted undertaking a study on the differences in risk factors. The presented paper deals with the problem of lipid disturbances. The study in Warsaw covered 2944 males aged 49-54 years from 14 Warsaw factories (response rate--88.4%) whereas the study in Bratislava covered 698 males in the same age group from four Bratislava factories (response rate--64.5%). The mean value of the total cholesterol and triglycerides level as well as the prevalence of elevated cholesterol of triglycerides was found to be higher in Bratislava than in the Warsaw population (p < 0.05). Hyperlipoproteidaemia was found in 24.6% of the studied males in Warsaw and in 43.8% of the Bratislava population (p < 0.05). Pure hypertriglyceridaemia prevailed in both populations. Phenotyping of hyperlipoproteinaemia according to Fredricksen additionally performed in Warsaw indicated the predominance of type IV; types, I, III and V were not found in the studied male group.
