OBJECTIVE: To assess the clinical data of hyperlipidemia patients of urban male workers at the annual health examination, and to ascertain a suitable dietary education program to reduce plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels in Japanese male patients. METHOD: Subjects were 273 males (mean age 47 years), who visited a medical examination center in Tokyo between April 2002 and March 2003 for an annual health examination. The subjects were diagnosed according to the guidelines of Japan Atherosclerosis Society for Diagnosis. The subjects fall into 6 hyperlipidemia groups: TC≧220mg/dl, LDLC≧140mg/dl, HDLC<40mg/dl, TG≧150mg/dl, TC≧220mg/dl & LDLC≧140mg/dl, TC≧220mg/dl & TG≧150mg/dl. RESULT: High cholesterol group (TC≧220mg/dl) were 48.7%, High triglyceride group (TG≧150mg/dl) were 36.3%, High LDL cholesterol group (LDLC≧140mg/dl) were 10.6%, Low HDL cholesterol group (HDLC<40mg/dl) were 4.4%. 38.1% belonged to the High cholesterol group and High LDL cholesterol group as well, 16.1% belonged to the High cholesterol group and High triglyceride group as well. Good correlations were found between TC and LDLC (r=0.87), TC and HDLC (r=0.39) and negative correlations were between TG and LDLC (r=-0.42), TG and HDLC (r=-0.39). CONCLUSION: This study pointed towards the acquisition of a dietary education program to reduce plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels in Japanese male patients
