Serum Cholesterol and Nigrostriatal R2* Values in Parkinson's Disease
BACKGROUND The occurrence of Parkinson's disease (PD) is known to be associated both with increased nigrostriatal iron content and with low serum cholesterol and PD, but there has been no study to determine a potential relationship between these two factors. METHODS High-resolution MRI (T1-, T2, and multiple echo T2*-weighted imaging) and fasting lipid levels were obtained from 40 patients wi...
متن کاملVariability of Serum Cholesterol Values in Baboons.
• In order to plan efficiently a long term experiment on the effect of dietary factors on serum lipids and arterial lesions in baboons, studies of biological and technical (measurement) variation of serum cholesterol values were conducted. In the major experiment, treatment effects of dietary fat, protein, and cholesterol will be investigated. The limited number of animals that can be maintaine...
متن کاملReference Values for Serum Total Cholesterol Concentrations Using Percentile Regression Model: A Population Study in Mashhad
Background and Purpose: Serum total cholesterol (TC) concentrations are affected by several factors including ethnicity, diet, geographic, and environmental determinants, and are related to another disease, including hypothyroidism, and renal and liver disease. It is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, particularly if associated with high levels of serum low-density lip...
متن کاملAge, serum cholesterol and coronary artery disease.
The question of an age-associated rise in serum cholesterol has been undecided. This communication presents evidence in favor of a rise in serum cholesterol with increasing age between the third and the fifth decades. In a control group of 146 individuals and a coronary disease group of 97 individuals, there was a positive correlation between age and serum cholesterol. In the coronary disease g...
متن کاملSerum biochemical values in rheumatoid disease.
Rheumatoid disease is a systemic disorder, the widespread extra-articular manifestations of which have been reviewed by Dudley Hart (1969, 1970) in his Ellman and Davidson lectures. The tissues clinically involved are those not usually associated with disturbances of metabolism, so that abnormalities of serum chemistry might not be anticipated. Increased use of biochemical investigations in mod...
