Evaluation of non-HDL-c and total cholesterol: HDL-c ratio as cumulative marker of cardiovascular risk in diabetes mellitus.
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD), is the primary cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with diabetes and have approximately--two to four times higher CVD rate than adult without diabetes. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is primarily used as the marker of cardiovascular risk in diabetes despite its several limitations. Although several newer markers of CVD are emerging,...
متن کاملDiagnostic and Prognostic Markers in Liver Cirrhosis
Liver cirrhosis is the final stage of all chronic liver diseases. Although cirrhosis is a pathological concept, the diagnosis of this entity is frequently based on clinical criteria that mainly reflect the consequences of increased portal pressure. Once the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis is performed, the time to reach a clinical situation of end-stage liver disease and a need for liver transplan...

متن کاملSerum and ascitic fluid bacterial DNA: a new independent prognostic factor in noninfected patients with cirrhosis.
UNLABELLED We tested the hypothesis that the presence of bacterial DNA (bactDNA) in ascitic fluid and serum is associated with decreased survival in patients with cirrhosis. In a prospective, multicenter study, we analyzed the clinical evolution of 156 patients with cirrhosis and ascites (first or recurrence) with lower than 250 polymorphonuclear cells (PMN)/muL, negative ascites bacteriologica...
متن کاملMulti-frequency bioelectric impedance measurements for predicting body water compartments in patients with non-ascitic liver cirrhosis.
We assessed total body water (TBW) and extracellular water (ECW) in thirty-four non-ascitic cirrhotics and twenty healthy controls by 2H2O and Br dilution. In the same subjects, bioelectric impedance (BI) was recorded at multiple frequencies. Body hydration was similar for controls (mean 55.6 (SD 6.7)), less-severe cirrhotics (Child-Pugh classification A; CPA; n 21, mean 56.2 (SD 6.2)) and mode...
