Differences in LDL oxidizability by glycemic status: the insulin resistance atherosclerosis study.
OBJECTIVE To investigate differences in LDL oxidizability by glycemic status within the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study cohort. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS LDL oxidizability (lag time and oxidation rate) after exposure to copper was compared among 352 subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes, and known type 2 diab...
متن کاملThe metabolic syndrome, LDL particle size, and atherosclerosis: the Atherosclerosis and Insulin Resistance (AIR) study.
An operative definition of the metabolic syndrome has been suggested by a working group associated with the World Health Organization in 1998. The aim of this study was to examine whether small, low density lipoprotein (LDL) particle size was associated with the metabolic syndrome and with subclinical atherosclerosis as measured by ultrasound in the carotid and femoral arteries. The study was p...
متن کاملLipoprotein concentrations and carotid atherosclerosis by diabetes status: results from the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study.
OBJECTIVE Lipoprotein concentrations are associated with the development of atherosclerosis in people with and without diabetes. The relative strength of these associations could differ by diabetes status as a result of diabetes-related lipoprotein modifications. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The associations between lipoprotein concentrations and internal and common carotid artery intimal-medi...
متن کاملThe Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study
The association between insulin resistance and insulinemia and hypertension is controversial. We examined the relation between insulin resistance and hypertension in 564 non-Hispanic whites (NHW), 505 Hispanics (H), and 413 African Americans (AA) who participated in the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study (IRAS). Insulin sensitivity was measured with a frequently sampled intravenous glucos...
متن کاملLDL size in African Americans, Hispanics, and non-Hispanic whites : the insulin resistance atherosclerosis study.
The prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and atherosclerosis varies among several minority ethnic groups in the United States. Recently, small, dense low density lipoprotein (LDL) particle size has been recognized as a risk factor for CVD. We examined LDL size as a possible explanation for differences in CVD rates in 1571 subjects from the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study (IRAS), ...
