A data of serum lipid profile such as total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, very low density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride from 100 patients in the age range of 15-65 years of both sex having subclinical hypothyroidism were compared with euthyroid controls to observe that whether subclinical hypothyroidism is associated with abn...

conclusions it can be concluded that tempol can improve dyslipidemia and may decrease hyperglycemia in diabetes. it seems that antioxidants such as tempol can improve dyslipidemia and may decrease hyperglycemia in diabetes. results the blood glucose level increased following diabetes induction. the level of blood glucose in the diabetic receiving tempol group decreased compared to the control d...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Elevated low density lipoprotein and reduced high density lipoprotein cholesterol may increase the risk of atherothrombotic brain infarction, but the metabolic mechanisms accounting for this relation are poorly understood. METHODS The kinetic parameters of low density and high density lipoprotein were studied in nine subjects with atherothrombotic brain infarction or id...

Cholesterol concentrations in serum high-density and low-density lipoproteins are simultaneously determined simply, specifically, and rapidly by use of the precipitation method with heparin, Ca2+, and an anion-exchange resin. The isolation of lipoproteins is reproducible, selective, and complete, as judged by electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel and by immunoelectrophoresis, with use of sample...

Background: Splenectomy is a common treatment for beta thalassemia. It not only eliminates many complications by reducing the need for blood transfusion, but also causes new complications that threaten the patientschr('39') health. The aim of this study was to determine if splenectomy could alter the lipid profile and glucose metabolism in beta thalassemia major patients. Methods: In this case-...

1. Concentrations of high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol and of glycosylated haemoglobins [HbA1(a+b+c)] were measured in non-fasting blood samples taken from 171 diabetic patients. 2. Mean concentrations of high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol were lower in men, and in patients not requiring insulin. 3. There was no correlation between concentrations of high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol and...

OBJECTIVE It has been reported that the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is significantly elevated in patients with low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (<35 mg/dL). But in this study, some patients had hypertension that may have affected the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio. This study consisted of 1274 asymptomatic healthy young men. In contrast with the previous study, we investigated the neutroph...

in order to determine the lipids and lipoproteins profiles in iranian khouzestanian arab horses, blood samples were collected from the jugular vein of 77 horses(47 female, 30 male) from different age groups(< 6, 7-12, 12-36, 37-60, 61- 69 and > 96 months). serum cholesterol and triglyceride were measured by enzymatic methods and lipoproteins by precipitation methods. the results were analyzed b...
