Association of Dietary Fat Pattern and Incidence of Cardiovascular Disease, Hypertension and Chronic Kidney Disease: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), hypertension (HTN) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are chronic conditions of recent decades, and dietary intakes play an important role in their prevention. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between dietary fat pattern and incidence of these conditions. Materials and Methods: Participants of the third phase (2006-2008) of the T...
متن کاملRelationship Between Lipid Profile and Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Lumbar Degenerative Disease in Adult Surgical Candidates
Background and Aim: There is no research consensus on the relationship between lipid profiles, atherosclerosis risk factors, and lumbar disc degeneration. The present study examined the relationship between lipid profile and some risk factors of cardiovascular diseases and lumbar disc degeneration in patients undergoing surgery. Methods and Materials/Patients: The study was conducted on ...
متن کاملLipid-related markers and cardiovascular disease prediction.
CONTEXT The value of assessing various emerging lipid-related markers for prediction of first cardiovascular events is debated. OBJECTIVE To determine whether adding information on apolipoprotein B and apolipoprotein A-I, lipoprotein(a), or lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 to total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) improves cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk p...
متن کاملLipid Measures and Cardiovascular Disease Prediction
Traditional lipid measures are the cornerstone of risk assessment and treatment goals in cardiovascular prevention. Whereas the association between total, LDL-, HDL-cholesterol and cardiovascular disease risk has been generally acknowledged, the rather poor capacity to distinguish between patients who will and those who will not develop cardiovascular disease has prompted the search for further...
متن کاملLipid-altering drugs: decreasing cardiovascular disease at the expense of increasing cancer?
To the Editor: The interesting paper by Cao et al. (1) exposes a disturbing paradox in preventive medicine that has significant implications. They demonstrated that expression of a mutant receptor for high-density lipoprotein (HDL) on breast cancer cell line MCF-7 inhibited the proliferation and attenuated the antiapoptotic effect of HDL on the breast cancer cells. This supports previous data s...
