Abstract
Previous studies established that cardiovascular disease can be predic ted early in life. Active modification of risk factors in the general population should include screening as the first step. For this reason , lipoproteins and apolipoproteins were measured in newborns and adole scents. Almost all lipids and apolipoproteins were much lower at birth than at adolescence. Based on these results, reference ranges were ca lculated.
