We conducted a screening for serum cholesterol levels at 41 locations of a large manufacturing company to determine baseline serum cholesterol levels in a workplace population. Locations were based on volunteerism. We conducted screenings at the worksite with individuals voluntarily participating on company time. Fifty percent of eligible employees participated in the screening. Using National Cholesterol Education Program guidelines, we identified 17.6% of employees as hypercholesterolemic (greater than or equal to 240 mg/dL), and another 30.2% were at borderline high risk. Total serum cholesterol increased with age and was higher in men than in women. Total cholesterol was significantly associated with age, sex, marital status, and education, but not with occupational status.
我们在一家大型制造公司的41个地点进行了血清胆固醇水平筛查,以确定职场人群的血清胆固醇基线水平。地点是基于自愿原则选定的。我们在工作场所对自愿在公司工作时间参与筛查的个人进行了检测。50%符合条件的员工参与了筛查。根据国家胆固醇教育计划指南,我们确定17.6%的员工患有高胆固醇血症(大于或等于240毫克/分升),另有30.2%处于临界高风险状态。血清总胆固醇随年龄增长而升高,男性高于女性。总胆固醇与年龄、性别、婚姻状况和教育程度显著相关,但与职业状况无关。
