Beta-blockers, lipoproteins and non-insulin dependent diabetes.

fl-Blockers, lipoproteins and non-insulin dependent diabetes

In a study on 138 hypertensive non-insulin dependent diabetic subjects, factors influencing lipoproteins were assessed. Multiple regression analyses were carried out in order to assess the influence of f-blocker antihypertensive therapy while making allowances for other confounding variables. In males, but not in females, on a ,B-blocker for hypertension, total high density lipoprotein(HDL-) an...

Thiazides, beta blockers and lipoproteins.

Some of the more important recent studies on the effect of thiazides and beta-adrenoceptor blocking agents is conflicting, possibly because of differences in patient compliance and in lipoprotein methodology and quality assurance between studies. It is likely that in the short-term, thiazide diuretics produce an increase in plasma triglyceride and cholesterol and in LDL-cholesterol. No consiste...

Dental damages in non-insulin dependent diabetes patients

Introduction: Changes in saliva and its biochemical content in diabetic patients can effect on supportive dental tissues and cause dental damage. Low carbohydrate diets, and good control of disease can reduce dental damage in diabetics. The aim of this study was to compare dental damage in patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) patients and healthy individuals. Methods: ...

lipoproteins in insulin dependent diabetes mellitus

Patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus who develop proteinuria may die prematurely, whereas those who do not develop this complication have a comparatively normal life span. The excess mortality in diabetics with proteinuria is from cardiovascular as well as renal disease, but the reason is unclear. Risk factors for vascular disease were therefore assessed in 22 insulin dependent dia...
