[Effect of vibration and noise on the fat balance in exposed workers].

In 265 workers exposed to local vibration of low and medium frequencies and to industrial noise, the level of total lipids, phospholipids, beta lipoproteins and total cholesterol in the blood serum was examined. The level of all those substances, except cholesterol, was found to be increased. Based on the discussion, the possibility is assumed of the influence of the neurohormonal system upon the disturbances in lipometabolism.
