Abstract

Lipids and Stability of Menopausal Status in Middle-Aged Women within Two Years by C. Mix, S. Bergmann, K. Kocis, P. Richter, W. Jaross

In the whole population total cholesterol (TC) was unchanged within two years. The triglyceride (TG) level increased signiflrcantly, but HDLC increased too between 1996 and 1998. The increase of TG concentration was signifîcantly in the stable group only, whereas the increase of HDLC concentration was observed in both groups. "Depressed mood" and "anxiety" seem to have a positive influence on the TC levels.
