objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of good glycemic control on serum lipids levels and lipid peroxidation, and to find out the relationship between the level of malondialdehyde and hba1c in type 2 diabetes. materials and methods: fifty type 2 diabetic patients aged 40-60 years with the history of diabetes for more than 10 years were studied. glycemic control was stable ...

hypokalemic disease is a disorder in which the amount of serum’ s potassium declines and the patient faces limbs weakness. in this disease, eye muscle and respiratory muscles rarely become involved and death may follow due to respiratory paralysis and heart conducting disturbances. since this disease is treatable and progressive weakness can be prevented, therefore in the study conducted we att...

a 42-day study was conducted to evaluate the influence of full-fat flaxseed (fs) and canola seed (cs) on broiler performance, fatty acid (fa) profile of meat, serum lipid content and antibody response to sheep red blood cells antigen (srbc). a total of 324 one-day-old chicks were attributed to 6 experimental groups. c: control (soybean-corn); cs1:7.5% cs; cs2:15% cs; cs-fs:10% fs + 10% cs; fs1:...

the aim of the study was to investigate the preventive effects of dietary garcinia cambogia extract onlipid metabolism and serum activities of alanine aminotransferase (alt), aspartate aminotransferase (ast)and gamma-glutamyle transferase (ggt) in rats fed high-lipid diet. thirty female, one-year-old sprague-dawley rats were used and separated into three equal groups. group 1 (control group) wa...

BACKGROUND Although the alterations of lipid profile in lung cancer have been documented, the prognostic value of serum HDL-C level and its correlation with inflammation in NSCLC remain unknown. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Levels of preoperative serum lipid concentrations (including HDL-C, LDL-C, TC, and TG) and the inflammatory biomarker C-reactive protein level (CRP) were retrospectively analyzed ...

conclusions sch is associated with increased level of pla2-iia, which is independent of bmi. the stronger association of sch with pla2-iia than with hs-crp indicates that pla2-iia is an inducer of inflammation while hs-crp is not. results serum levels of tg, cholesterol, and ldl were higher in the sch group than the control group. however, there was no significant difference between the two gro...
