background: some coincidental disorders with migraine have been introduced that may have role in its pathogenesis or aggravation. in this study we determined the relative frequency of hyperlipidemia as a coincidental disorder in patients affected by migraine. methods: a total of 102 migraine-affected patients according to international headache society (his) criteria and 103 control subjects ad...

background: serum lipids abnormalities have been observed in various forms of cancers including acute leukemia. investigators report decreased total cholesterol and hdl, and elevated triglyceride in leukemic patients. limited studies had been performed to discover the correlation between abnormal lipids profile and disease activity in leukemic patients in iran. this study was done to evaluate t...

abstract probiotic products highly affect the health of consumers by reducing the risk of heart attacks and improving of desirable microflora in intestinal tract. in this study the effect of yogurt (500g/d for 3 wk) enriched with either bifidobacterium bifidum or lactobacillus acidophilus on the level of cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (ldl) and high density lipoprotein (hdl) of serum and ...

background: the association between the lipid profiles level and the incidence and severity of coronary heart disease (chd) is very pronounced in epidemiological studies, and an inverse relation between physical fitness and the incidence of coronary heart disease has been observed in many studies. the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of a soccer match on lipid parameters of profe...

introduction: abnormal lipid profile causes maternal mortality and impairs fetal development. this study investigated the effect of ramadan fasting on plasma lipid profile in pregnant women. material and methods: this self-control, cohort study was performed in healthy volunteer fasted pregnant women. serum cholesterol, triglyceride (tg), low density lipoprotein (ldl), high density lipoprotein ...

the intake of antioxidants intake has been reported to be inversely associated with the incidence of coronary artery disease. to clarify the possible role of lipophilic antioxidants in prevention of atherosclerosis, we investigated the effects of lycopene on the susceptibility of low-density lipoprotein (ldl) to oxidative modification. in this study, “lycopene” was added to plasma and incubated...

abstract   background: irregular working hours, including night work and shift work, have been found to be associated with alteration in various levels of biochemical factors. and some studies have showed association between shift work and blood biochemical disturbances in blood. in this epidemiological study we investigated, whether regular schedule of working hours can minimize the associated...

probiotic products highly affect the health of consumers by reducing the risk of heart attacks and improving the desirable microflora in the intestinal tract. in this study the effect of yogurt (500g/d for 3 wk) enriched with either bifidobacterium bifidum or lactobacillus acidophilus on the level of cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (ldl) and high density lipoprotein (hdl) of serum and ...

the non-enzymatic glycation of low density lipoprotein (ldl) is a naturally occurring chemical modification of apolipoprotein b as a result of condensation between lysine residues and glucose. glycated ldl is poorly recognized by ldl receptors and initiates different processes that can be considered proatherogenic. thus, ldl glycation may contribute in the increased atherosclerotic risk of pati...

objective(s):resveratrol (res) is a polyphenol compound that has been shown a promising cardioprotective effect. however, some reports have yielded conflicting findings. herein, we investigated the anti-atherosclerotic effects of res in apolipoprotein e (apo e)-deficient mice on a high cholesterol diet. materials and methods: firstly, atherosclerosis was induced by feeding a high cholesterol di...
