the lipid accumulation product is a novel, safe and inexpensive index of central lipid over accumulation based on waist circumference and fasting concentration of circulating triglycerides. this study was designed to investigate the ability of lipid accumulation product to predict cardio-metabolic risk factors in postmenopausal women. in this cross-sectional study, 264 postmenopausal women by u...

background: microalgal lipid is a promising feedstock for biodiesel production. the aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of cultivation temperature on the growth and lipid accumulation properties of nannochloropsis oculata microalgae. methods: nannochloropsis oculatacan grow in a wide range of temperatures (5 ~ 35°c). late in the stationary growth phase of microalgae, biomass...

abstract background: in this study we aimed to evaluate the impact of chronic exposure to the gly-phosate (gp) on rat’s testicular tissue and sperm parameters. objective: testicular tissue, morphology of sperms and testosterone level in serum of mature male rats were analyzed. materials and methods: animals were divided into two test and control-sham groups. the test group was subdivided into 4...

OBJECTIVE To analyze the cardiovascular risk of non-obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) by the LAP index (lipid accumulation product). SUBJECTS AND METHODS 283 patients (18-34 years) assigned at the University Hospital of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal-RN, were divided into four groups: 1) lean PCOS (n = 35); 2) healthy lean (n = 162); 3) overweight PCOS (n...
