The influence of environmental conditions and anthropometric parameters on arterial blood pressure level was studied in 280 healthy Kashmiri subjects, aged 18-50 years (140 males, 140 females) Men in the age group of 18-20 years had higher blood pressure than women and their systolic blood pressure showed significant correlation with height, weight and skinfold thickness. Females (18-20 years) showed association of diastolic blood pressure with weight, skinfold thickness. Females (18-20) years) showed association of diastolic blood pressure with weight, skinfold thickness and mid-arm circumference. After the age of 20 years females had higher blood pressure than males. Height and weight decreased with age in both the sexes. Skinfold thickness and midarm circumference increased with age in females. A comparison between the present study and those reported from Haryana and Delhi revealed a higher diastolic pressure in Kashmiris.

Lower concentrations of protein observed in semen of infertile men were mostly due to absence of vesicular proteins with higher isoelectric pH above pH 8.3. Two to four proteins with lower isoelectric pH showing electrophoretic mobility and originating both from seminal vesicle and prostate were absent in infertile semen samples. Concentrations of such proteins among oligozoospermic and azoospermic samples with complete maturation arrest and Sertoli cell only syndrome decreased mainly towards cathode, whereas, in vasectomized azoospermia the number of protein bands decreased both towards cathode and anode, though the concentration decreased mainly in the anodic proteins.
