From a primary health screening 631 subjects with serum triglycerides greater than or equal to 4.0 mmol/l were investigated for underlying factors for hypertriglyceridemia. Obesity, glucose intolerance, or suspected high alcohol consumption were associated in 84.5% if the definitions were: Actual/ideal weight (A/I) greater than or equal to 1.2 (obesity), blood glucose in the fasting state or after 120 min of an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) greater than or equal to 7.0 mmol/l (glucose intolerance), and gammaglutamyltransferase (GGT) greater than or equal to 1.0 mu kat/l (suspected high alcohol consumption). Ninety-seven percent were associated if also those with positive alcohol anamnesis or with A/I 1.06-1.19, blood glucose after 120 min of an OGTT 6.5-6.99, or GGT 0.8-0.99 were included.
