Blood Serum Lipoproteins: A review

Relation between blood lipids, lipoproteins, and cerebrovascular atherosclerosis. A review.

Although blood lipids and lipoproteins are strongly related to coronary atherosclerosis, their association with cerebrovascular atherosclerosis is less clear. A review of more than 20 publications in which a relation was sought between plasma lipid and lipoprotein concentrations and cerebrovascular atherosclerosis leads to the general conclusion that such a relation exists and that it is strong...

Serum Lipids and Lipoproteins

men at comparable ages. Hyperlipoproteinemia, cholesterol, and triglyceride elevations were more common in MI patients than in men in the random sample, occurring with greatest frequency in the younger patients. There was a trend toward higher mortality among patients with hyperlipoproteinemia. Types II A and B were very common in young patients. Serum cholesterol values were significantly high...

Autoantibodies to Serum Lipoproteins

couraged generalization from them. For instance, M. Levine and R. P. Olson" studied three cases, and W. M. Wolff and L. A. Morrisl2 studied seven cases. Nevertheless it is interesting to note that both of these research groups concluded that parental personality profiles generally reflected normality rather than deviancy and did not consider their findings consistent with the specific personali...

effects of a calcium supplement on serum lipoproteins, apolipoprotein b, and blood pressure in overweight men

Topical timolol and serum lipoproteins.

Oral timolol taken for the treatment of systemic hypertension has been shown to affect adversely serum lipoprotein levels. In a 15-week study on 19 patients topical timolol therapy for raised intraocular pressure was found to have no significant adverse effect on serum lipoprotein levels. This is reassuring in view of the large number of patients on this form of long term therapy, and selection...
