Relationship between serum vitamin E levels and serum cholesterol in normal adults in rural regions of Yamagata Prefecture, Japan.

Abstract
Serum vitamin E and cholesterol levels were determined for the residents in rural regions of Yamagata Prefecture, Japan. The average serum vitamin E were 0.99 +/- 0.25 mg/100ml in 166 men, and 1.06 +/- 0.26 mg/100ml in 178 women. Only 0.6% of the subjects were below 0.5 mg/100 ml. There was a significant difference between the serum vitamin E levels of men and women. However there were no statistically significant differences among serum vitamin E of various age groups. The best correlation for serum vitamin E was found with serum cholesterol.
