background thyroid hormones play an important role in lipid metabolism. overt hypothyroidism is known to be associated with increased lipid profiles, but the effect of subclinical hypothyroidism (sch) on lipid profile remains controversial. objectives the aim of this study was to assess the association between thyroid disorders and serum lipid levels. materials and methods the present study was...

A 56 days grow-out experiment with three protein levels (35, 40 and 45%) and three lipid levels (5, 10 and 15%) was conducted to evaluate the optimum protein to lipid ratio for oriental river prawn (Macrobrachium nipponense). Four hundred and five prawns, with mean (± SD) weight of 1.40 ± 0.04 g were distributed in 27 glass aquaria and were fed four times daily. Results showed tha...

research background approved weight loss would result in improvement of lipid profile. nowadays, weight management is attained by modifying psychological mediators, as well as dieting and making individuals do more physical activity. hence, this research was performed to compare effectiveness of different psychological interventions on lipid profile improvement among individuals with overweight...

background: we studied the effects of high protein (hp) and balanced diets (bds) on lipid profiles, and high‑sensitive c‑reactive protein (hs‑crp) levels in obese and overweight women. methods: in a parallel designed randomized controlled clinical trial, 60 healthy women with body mass index ≥25 kg/m2, aged 20–46 years, enrolled in an 8‑week investigation at aerobic clubs. they were categorized...

tilmicosin (tlm) is an important antibiotic in veterinary medicine with low bioavailability and safety. this study aimed to formulate and evaluate physicochemical properties, storage stability after lyophilization and antibacterial activity of three tlm-loaded lipid nanoparticles (tlm-lnps) including solid lipid nanoparticles (slns), nanostructured lipid carriers (nlcs) and lipid-core nanocapsu...

background: cancer has the highest disease-related mortality rate in iran. reduced activity of paraoxonase reported in patients with cancer may be due to a reduction in its antioxidant properties and a subsequent increased risk of developing cancer. we aimed to assess antioxidant and oxidative status in patients with cancer through measuring the activity of pon1 as an antioxidant enzyme and det...

background and aims. oral lichen planus is a common chronic inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa with malignant potential, pathogenesis of which is not still well known. free radicals and reactive oxygen species can play an important role in the pathogenesis of oral lichen planus. the aim of this study was to investigate salivary oxidative stress and antioxidant systems in patients with oral...

background: bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in women may lead to metabolic consequences in patients. this study was performed to determine the glucose tolerance and lipid profile after menopause resulting from bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. methods: from september 2011 to march 2013, 31 women participants aged 46-52 years who underwent hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for beni...

background: multiple sclerosis (ms) is one of the most prevalent of nerves system disease. ms is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder. nutrition and diet are effective factors for prevention and treatment in ms, however finding are controversial. the aim of this study was investigation of dietary pattern of fat consumption and its relationship with lipid profiles crp level in ms patient.  metho...

conclusions in a current study based on increasing maternal age, the hdl-c level in cord blood was decreased which is an independent risk factor for cvds in adulthood. results a statistically significant negative correlation was observed between cord blood hdl-c and maternal age (r = -0.18, p <0.01). there was no relationship between other lipids and lipoproteins with maternal age. our findings...
