High density lipoprotein apoprotein variability in a biracial population.
High density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is a sensitive index for coronary disease in affluent societies. We have measured plasma apoprotein A-I levels (the major HDL protein) in randomly selected groups of urban and rural Fijian Melanesians and Indians. Despite higher prevalence rates of coronary disease and diabetes mellitus in Indians, Indian men and women had significantly higher A-I leve...
متن کاملApoprotein exchange between human high-density-lipoprotein subfractions (high-density-lipoprotein subfractions 2 and 3) [proceedings].
centrifugation restored these increases when included in the heparin-containing medium at concentrations of 10-8Opg of protein/ml. The ability of heparin to stimulate the release of lipoprotein lipase from human adipose tissue in vitro has been demonstrated by several groups of workers (Elkeles, 1974). That this release can be closely correlated with triacylglycerol clearance provided further e...
متن کاملTriglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholestrol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratios are predictors of cardiovascular risk in Iranian adults: Evidence from a population-based cross-sectional study
Background: The superiority of TG/HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C ratios in predicting CVD risk is a matter of debates. Thus, the objective of this study was to compare TG/HDL-C and LDL-C to HDL-C ratios in predicting the risk of CVD events. Methods: In a population-based cross-sectional study, 567 representative participants aged 40 years or older were entered in the study in Babol, North of Iran. The...
متن کاملHigh -density lipoprotein cholesterol as a predictor for diabetes mellitus
Background: Diabetes is a prevalent chronic disease around the world. To evaluate risk of diabetes comprehensively, we developed a score model for the risk prediction with HDL-C as a protective factor. Methods: We extracted physical examination data of 2728 individuals. The data contain 18 demographic and clinical variables. To identify the statistical significant feature variables, the backwa...
متن کاملHigh-density lipoprotein cholesterol and phospholipids, and apoprotein A in serum of patients with liver disease.
Concentrations of apoprotein A in whole serum, and cholesterol and phospholipids concentrations in the high-density lipoprotein fraction of serum were measured after the precipitation of low-density and very-low-density lipoproteins with sodium phosphotungstate-Mg2+ in 23 patients with liver cirrhosis, 19 patients with extrahepatic biliary obstruction, and 20 healthy control subjects. Patients ...
