Frequency of dyslipidemia and mean lipid profile in liver cirrhosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aim: To determine the frequency of dyslipidemia in patients of liver cirrhosis and the mean lipid profile in patients of liver cirrhosis. Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted at Department of Medicine, BVH, Bahawalpur from January 2013 to June 2013. In this study, 171 patients with cirrhosis of liver were included. Results and Conclusion: Out of 171 cirrhotic patients, dyslipidemia was found in 143(83.6%) patients. Dyslipidemia was found commonly in liver cirrhotic patients. Dyslipidemia worsens with severity of liver cirrhosis i.e. mild cirrhosis (29.4%) & severe cirrhosis (100%) according to child-Pugh classification.

بررسی ارتباط بین MELD (Model of End Stage Liver Disease) و لیپیدهای سرم در بیماران سیروز جبران نشده (cirrhosis Decompensated)
Background & Aims: The liver plays an essential role in lipid metabolism. For reduced liver biosynthesis capacity, low levels of triglyceride (TG) and cholesterol (TC) is usually observed in chronic liver diseases. We conducted this study to determine the relationship between serum lipids and MELD score level in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Materials & Methods: A checklist was prep...

Background: The liver plays a main role in the production and metabolism of lipoproteins, and then impaired lipid metabolism is often seen in patients with liver cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis (CH). As a result, plasma lipid levels could be as useful indicators of liver function and patient's prognosis especially in liver cirrhosis. Methods: We measured the lipoprotein levels in 77 consecutiv...

متن کاملCurcumin enhances liver SIRT3 expression in the rat model of cirrhosis
Objective(s): Bill duct ligation (BDL) is a representative model of biliary cholestasis in animals. Curcumin has a protective effect on the liver; however, its underlying mechanisms are not completely known. This study explored the hepatoprotective activity of curcumin on hepatic damage via measuring the expression of sirtuin3 (SIRT3), AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), carnitine palmitoyltra...
