there are many evidences that human serum paraoxonase activity modifies plasma lipid profile and paraoxonase has an antiatherogenic property. non-selective beta-blockers affect plasma lipid profile too, but they have atherogenic property when patients take these drugs in long term. in this study the effect of propranolol, a non-selective beta-blocker, on paraoxonase activity was investigated. l...

objective: dietary changes playmajor risk roles in oxidative stress andcardiovascular disease and modulate normal metabolic function. the present study was designed to investigate the ameliorative potential of different extracts of hemidesmus indicus to experimental high-fat diet in wistar rats, and their possible mechanism of action.  materials and methods: male wistar rats were divided into 6...

Objective: There are controversial reports about biological effects of the Melia Azedarach Linn. (MA). In the present study, the effect of MA fruit extract on lipid profile, cardiac and hepatic functions of diabetic rats was investigated. Materials and Methods: Thirty male Wistar rats were divided into five groups. Group 1 as the control group, Group 2 as the diabetic group, Group 3 and 4 as t...

background: stroke is one of the most frequent causes of death and disability worldwide and has significant clinical and socioeconomic impact. hyperlipidemia and inflammation play major roles in atherothrombosis and in stroke. this study is conducted to compare the high sensitive c-reactive protein (hs-crp) levels and the lipid profile parameters between stroke patients and control group and de...

introduction considering the high prevalence of vitamin d deficiency in our country and the importance of blood lipid profile as a protective factor, aim of this study was to investigate the effect of vitamin d supplementation on lipid profile in children 10 to 14 years.materials and methods in this controlled clinical trial study, 40 children who were studying on 2014 in birjand elementary sch...
