Consider the blood cholesterol levels of the first 100 students in the data set presented in App. A. Divide these students by gender groupings, and construct a class relative frequency table for each. Plot, on the same chart, separate class relative frequency polygons for the female and male...
RESULTS: Cholesterol level varied significantly with both age (P < .001) and pubertal status (P < .01) with children aged 9 to 12 years; prepubertal children had the highest levels. Visit-to-visit consistency of NCEP classification was poorer for younger children than for older children (...

So, to evaluate the impact of malaria on lipid parameters at the population levels in different age groups, studies are needed to explore the relevance of this finding in different patterns of hyperendemic regions.
