Abstract
Statistical analysis of the data indicated a significant effect of gender and age on all the study groups. A significant effect (P < 0.05) of age on total cholesterol level of both the genders was noted. Females less than 50 years of age had significantly (P < 0.05) lower serum total cholesterol level than their male counterparts. Likewise, females above 50 years of age had significantly higher (P < 0.05) serum total cholesterol than their male counterparts. Mean cholesterol level in angina patients with coexistent diabetes mellitus indicated a nonsignificant effect of age on total cholesterol level of males and a significant effect (P < 0.05) on females. Females above 50 years of age had significantly (P < 0.05) higher serum total cholesterol level than males below 50 years of age. All other comparisons were nonsignificant statistically.
