Increased oxidative stress in obese diabetes may have causal effects on diabetic complications, including dyslipidemia. Lipopolysccharides (LPS) along with an atherogenic diet have been found to increase oxidative stress and insulin resistance. Cranberry has been recognized as having beneficial effects on diseases related to oxidative stress. Therefore, we employed obese diabetic animals treate...

In the present study, we examined the antioxidative activities of Satureja khuzestanica essential oil (SKE) and possible protective effect of SKE on lipid profile, atherogenic index and liver enzyme markers in Alloxan-induced Type 1 diabetic rats. Thirty male rats were randomly divided into three groups; group one as control, group two diabetic untreatment, and group three treatments with SKE b...

In this paper, the nutritional quality of cheese samples and analogues was assessed throughout fatty acid profile lipid indices. The research included in which milk fat completely replaced by vegetable with addition palm coconut oil, as well mixed products, whose production based on use protein cheese. Fatty analysed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), while atherogenic index, thrombo...

To clarify the significance of increased blood sialic acid in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, we investigated the relationship between serum sialic acid level and atherosclerotic risk factors such as serum uric acid, fasting blood glucose, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, atherogenic index, and white blood cell count. By simple regression analysis, the serum sialic acid level was ...

BACKGROUND Lipid disorders are common worldwide and contribute to a significant proportion of the burden of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVES To determine the prevalence of lipid disorders among patients reporting at Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), Kumasi, Ghana. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Directorate of Medicine and Polyclinic outpatient clinics of KAT...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to explore oxidative stress status, especially the enzyme myeloperoxidase in children with end-stage renal disease. Also, we investigated possible associations between the atherogenic index of plasma and these parameters. METHODS Lipid status parameters, oxidative stress status parameters, and myeloperoxidase concentration were measured in the sera of 20 c...

In order to clarify the significance of obesity in atherosclerotic risk at different ages, the relationship between the body-mass index, serum sialic acid concentration, and various atherosclerotic risk factors were investigated for healthy subjects in three different age groups, 35-39, 40-49 and 50-59 years old. The body-mass index correlated significantly with mean arterial blood pressure, fa...
