Cardiovascular disease risk factors in 6-7-year-old Danish children: the Copenhagen School Child Intervention Study

Mean BP in 6-7-year-old Danish children has decreased since 1979 and BMI has increased modestly since 1986/1987. The lipid profile was similar compared with data from 1973 and 1978 in Danish children. Weak relationships were found between CVD risk factors, fitness and fatness.
