Plasma lipid and lipoprotein profiles were compared in elderly female runners (RU: n = 15, aged 66 +/- 5 years, body fat 20 +/- 4%, training distance 35 +/- 15 km week-1, VO2max 36 +/- 4 ml kg-1 min-1, mean +/- SD) and age-matched untrained women (UT: n = 28, 66 +/- 4 years, body fat 26 +/- 6%, VO2max 26 +/- 3 ml kg-1 min-1). There were insignificant differences in total cholesterol (RU: 5.04 +/- 0.60 vs. UT: 5.48 +/- 0.85 mmol l-1), HDL-cholesterol (RU: 1.97 +/- 0.41 vs. UT: 1.91 +/- 0.36 mmol l-1) and LDL-cholesterol (RU: 2.72 +/- 0.59 vs. UT: 3.03 +/- 0.80 mmol l-1) between the two groups. Plasma triglyceride concentration of the runners was significantly lower than that of the untrained women (RU: 0.80 +/- 0.27 vs UT: 1.14 +/- 0.36 mmol l-1, P less than 0.01). No difference was observed in the LDL-cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio between the two groups (RU: 1.45 +/- 0.51 vs UT: 1.64 +/- 0.53 units). These results suggest that regularly performed running of 35 km week-1 in elderly women does not further elevate their HDL-cholesterol level which is already high compared to the levels found in elderly men. However, elderly female runners appear to be protected against age-related increases in the levels of triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol.
对老年女性跑步者（RU：n = 15，年龄66±5岁，体脂20±4%，每周训练距离35±15公里，最大摄氧量36±4 ml·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹，均值±标准差）和年龄匹配的未受过训练的女性（UT：n = 28，66±4岁，体脂26±6%，最大摄氧量26±3 ml·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹）的血浆脂质和脂蛋白谱进行了比较。两组之间的总胆固醇（RU：5.04±0.60 vs. UT：5.48±0.85 mmol·l⁻¹）、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇（RU：1.97±0.41 vs. UT：1.91±0.36 mmol·l⁻¹）和低密度脂蛋白胆固醇（RU：2.72±0.59 vs. UT：3.03±0.80 mmol·l⁻¹）无显著差异。跑步者的血浆甘油三酯浓度显著低于未受过训练的女性（RU：0.80±0.27 vs UT：1.14±0.36 mmol·l⁻¹，P<0.01）。两组之间的低密度脂蛋白胆固醇/高密度脂蛋白胆固醇比值无差异（RU：1.45±0.51 vs UT：1.64±0.53单位）。这些结果表明，老年女性每周进行35公里的规律跑步并不会进一步提高她们本就高于老年男性的高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平。然而，老年女性跑步者似乎能预防与年龄相关的甘油三酯和低密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平升高。
