Fetuin-A levels in hyperthyroidism
OBJECTIVE Fetuin-A is a protein secreted from the liver that inhibits arterial calcification deposition and can contribute to insulin resistance. Hyperthyroidism is also associated with insulin resistance. It is not known whether hyperthyroidism has an effect on fetuin-A levels. METHODS We measured fetuin-A levels and homeostasis model of assessment-insulin resistance before hyperthyroidism t...
متن کاملFetuin-A levels determine cardiovascular risk in young diabetic patients
Objective: Young adults with type 2 diabetes were demonstrated to have increased cardiovascular disease risk. Fetuin-A levels are associated with insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance, hepatosteatosis, subclinical inflammation and increased cardiovascular risk. Apolipoprotein (Apo) B/Apo A1 ratio is a well-defined cardiovascular risk assessment marker. In this study, we aimed to invest...
متن کاملSerum fetuin-A levels in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
BACKGROUND/AIM One of the functions of fetuin-A is the restriction of formation and expansion ofextraosseous hydroxyapatite crystals. TIhe exact correlation of fetuin-A with bone mineral density (BMD) has not been clearly elucidated yet. In this study, we aimed to assess the relationship between BMD and fetuin-A in postmenopausal women. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty postmenopausal women (25 wit...

rapid half-life of DXL (about 4min) causing no accumulation of the drug in the central compartment after repeated administration. So these differences in DXL plasma concentrations looked accidental. The observed transient increase of DXL plasma concentrations during HD is probably due to altered protein binding of the drug. To evaluate DXL toxicity, blood-count controls were taken in periodic i...
متن کاملAssociation of mitral annular calcification with fetuin-A levels
We read the article, entitled “Association of mitral annular calcification with endothelial dysfunction, carotid intima-media thickness, and serum fetuin-A: An observational study,” by Ziyrek et al. (1) in Anatolian J Cardiol 2013; 13: 752-8, in which they reported that their findings might reflect a close association between mitral annular calcification and cardiovascular risk factors in patie...
