  • Title: [Metabolic risk factors in the very old].
    Author: Kinner B, Sauer I.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1981 Mar; 36(5):155-9. PubMed ID: 7245814.
    Abstract:
    55 patients well advanced in years of the vitality group I after Franke were examined according to clinical and laboratory-chemical criteria as well as by means of ECG in rest. The particular relations between metabolic risk factors and the occurrence of diseases of heart and circulation in persons well advanced in years were explained. Here could be established that persons who advanced in years, on the one hand, from the epidemiologic point of view show favourable laboratory parameters for the metabolic risk factors, on the other hand, however, slightly increased serum values of the risk factors may also be connected with old age. In a similar way the finding from the ECG in rest could be interpreted.
