Background: Iron deficiency, is a common worldwide complication, especially in preschool children. Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is associated with changes in the mental and motor development, defects of immune system, cardiovascular, diseases and disruption of lipid profile. In IDA, the occurrence of dyslipidemia is controversial. We aimed to investigate the association between IDA and serum li...

Background: Radio frequency wave (RFW) generated by mobile phones and wireless communication systems has been reported to cause adverse effects on reproductive function, vision and hematological parameters, possibly through oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of RFW generated bybase transceiver station BTS on oxidative stress in testis, eye and erythrocyte, and th...

background: obesity is associated with increased lipid peroxidation. it has also been suggested that risk of lipid peroxida­tion increases with increasing body iron stores. the aim of this study was to examine the association of body iron status with the concentration of plasma malondialdehyde (p-mda) as a marker of lipid peroxidation in obese and non-obese women. methods: in a case control stu...

conclusions ehp was able to both reduce ldl-ch and to significantly decrease markers of oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation induced by hyperlipidemia. therefore, this herb, as a new pharmacological component, could be used to reduce certain blood lipids, lipid peroxidation, and aminotransferase markers. materials and methods thirty-two male rats weighting 200 ± 10 g were randomly divided in...

Because the ingestion of some types of dietary fibers has been shown to influence on the lipid and lipoprotein levels, it is possible that chitosan influences on lipid metabolism. In the present study, the effects of chitosan on the serum, liver lipid and lipoprotein concentrations in rat were investigated. Serum lipid level in the treatment groups were decreased compared to that of the control...

background: there is abundance of literature delving into whether periodontal infection contributes to changes in serum lipid profi les. whole saliva is an important physiologic fl uid that contains a highly complex mixture of substances. research on salivary lipid profi les and chronic periodontitis remains unexplored and limited. this study was designed with an aim to investigate the associat...

OBJECTIVE: Oxidative stress is a serious complication in diabetic patients. Black tea and also sour tea contained some flavonoids with antioxidant properties and may be helpful in prevention of lipid oxidation. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of sour tea and black tea on in-vitro copper induced serum lipids oxidizability in diabetic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this se...
