Data on 188 women in a study to determine if using Birth control pills increased blood serum cholesterol levels. The subjects were matched in pairs by age, height, and weight. Within each pair, one was a BC pill user and the other had never used BC pills. The matched pairs are contiguous in the data set: subjects 1 and 2 are matched, subjects 3 and 4, and so forth. Several other blood chemistry measurements were also made. Possible final projects which use this data set: 1) Test for differences in one of the blood chemistry variables between the BC pill users and non-users. 2) Determine if there is a multiple linear relationship between cholesterol (or other blood chemistry variables) and variables such as age and weight. The variables: ID: some kind of ID number Age: in years Height: in inches Weight: in pounds BC: 1 = non BC pill user, 2 = BC pill user Chol: Blood serum cholesterol level, the response for the study Alb: Blood albumin level Ca: Blood Calcium level Uric: Blood level of uric acid Warning: There are several missing values (NA) in the data set.
