This study was undertaken to find out the importance of HDL-cholesterol in assessing coronary risk in our pilots. We related cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, and the cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio in blood to the BROCA-Index, smoking, and relative PWC 150 in 589 individuals. We found positive correlations between the cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio to the BROCA-Index and to smoking. We did not find any correlation between cholesterol alone and the BROCA-Index or smoking. Moreover, we failed to find any correlations to physical fitness calculated from PWC 150. That may be due to the higher physical fitness standard in our pilots in comparison with the normal population. It is concluded, that a HDL-cholesterol determination is a more relevant parameter than cholesterol alone in borderline and elevated cholesterol levels.
本研究旨在探究高密度脂蛋白胆固醇（HDL-胆固醇）在评估我们飞行员冠心病风险中的重要性。我们将589名个体血液中的胆固醇、HDL-胆固醇以及胆固醇/HDL-胆固醇比值与布罗卡指数、吸烟情况和相对PWC 150进行了关联分析。我们发现胆固醇/HDL-胆固醇比值与布罗卡指数以及吸烟之间存在正相关。我们未发现单独的胆固醇与布罗卡指数或吸烟之间存在任何关联。此外，我们未能发现与根据PWC 150计算出的身体素质之间存在任何关联。这可能是由于与正常人群相比，我们的飞行员身体素质标准更高。得出的结论是，在临界和升高的胆固醇水平下，测定HDL-胆固醇比单独测定胆固醇是一个更相关的参数。
