ABSTRACT
24 cigarette smokers were investigated for their blood cholesterol and HDL cholesterol. They had elevated total cholesterol compared to age and sex matched controls. 21 smokers out of 24 had significant decrease of HDL cholesterol. It is suggested that smoking, which is a major risk factor for coronary heart disease, might act through its effect on total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol.
