A population sample of 142 men and 148 women aged 40-69 was drawn in Chittenden County, Vermont, and studied for interrelationships among several parameters of obesity, fasting serum cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose and insulin concentrations, and 2-hour post-Glucola glucose and insulin concentrations. No significant sex differences were observed with regard to mean fasting concentrations of glucose, insulin, cholesterol, or triglyceride. Post-Glucola insulin concentrations were higher in women, particularly in the older age groups. Positive correlations were observed between mean log fasting insulin concentration and all parameters of obesity except log triceps skinfold thickness in men. In addition, a positive correlation was present between mean log fasting insulin and fasting triglycerides. There was a positive correlation between fasting triglycerides and ponderal index and estimated percent body fat. Fasting triglycerides correlated with percent ideal weight in women but not in men and with log subscapular skinfold thickness in men but not in women. There was no correlation with either log triceps skinfold thickness or with combined triceps and subscapular skinfold thickness in either men or women. No positive correlations were observed with regard to serum cholesterol. The measurement of glucose and insulin concentrations 2 hours post-Glucola or the calculation of insulin-to-glucose ratios did not provide additional correlations to those observed from the fasting data alone and in some instances correlations which existed in the fasting state were largely obscured following carbohydrate administration.
