Effects of Statin Therapy on Endothelial Function in Asymptomatic Metabolic Syndrome
Context: Endothelial dysfunction is an early predictor of adverse cardiovascular events. The present study evaluated asymptomatic metabolic syndrome (MS) patients with brachial artery endothelial dysfunction to determine whether a reversal of endothelial dysfunction occurs with statin treatment. Aim: To evaluate the short term effects of statins on endothelial function in asymptomatic metabolic...
متن کاملA Disease Classifier for Metabolic Profiles Based on Metabolic Pathway
This thesis presents Pathway Informed Analysis (PIA), a classification method for predicting disease states (diagnosis) from metabolic profile measurements that incorporates biological knowledge in the form of metabolic pathways. A metabolic pathway describes a set of chemical reactions that perform a specific biological function. A significant amount of biological knowledge produced by efforts...
متن کاملStatin-Associated Side Effects.
Hydroxy-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors or statins are well tolerated, but associated with various statin-associated symptoms (SAS), including statin-associated muscle symptoms (SAMS), diabetes mellitus (DM), and central nervous system complaints. These are "statin-associated symptoms" because they are rare in clinical trials, making their causative relationship to sta...
متن کاملEffects of vitamin D on plasma lipid profiles in statin-treated patients with hypercholesterolemia: A randomized placebo-controlled trial.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Lipid abnormalities are regarded as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Low vitamin D status has been shown to be associated with hyperlipidemia. We planned to research the effects of vitamin D supplementation as an adjuvant therapy for patients with hypercholesterolemia. METHODS Patients with hypercholesterolemia were enrolled in this single-center, double-blind, plac...
متن کاملEffects of leptin receptor gene 3'-untranslated region polymorphism on metabolic profiles in young Japanese men.
We investigated the effects of leptin receptor gene 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) polymorphism on clinical and metabolic parameters in 221 young Japanese men aged 21 to 28 years. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method was used to identify a pentanucleotide (CTTTA) insertion in 3'-UTR of the leptin receptor gene. Body mass index, blood pressure, plasma gl...
