Mother & Child Jan ;35(4):148-154.

Two hundred children of hypertensive and normotensive parents belonging to middle income group were studied for cholesterol, HDL - cholesterol, serum triglycerides values and their association with blood pressure. The mean serum cholesterol concentrations within the two groups revealed no significant difference. In the sex matched 5 - 7 and 8 - 10 years age subgroups, mean cholesterol values showed a significant difference (p<0.05). The mean values of HDLcholesterol on comparison between the two groups were statistically significant (p<0.01). The mean values of serum triglycerides were found to be significantly higher when compared in two groups (p<0.0001) and when compared male to male and female to female in each groups the mean differences again were significant (p < 0.02) and (p < 0.01). A significant association (p < 0.002) was observed between systolic blood pressure and serum triglycerides.
