Background: Cirrhosis is a common hepatological disorder seen in clinical practice. Liver plays an essential role in lipid metabolism, several stages of lipid synthesis and transportation. It is reasonable to expect an abnormal lipid profile in those with severe liver dysfunction Aim: To assess the lipid profile abnormalities in patients with cirrhosis of liver correlate with the severity of ci...

background: leptin has been implicated in the differentiation and proliferation of hematopoietic cells. leukemia inhibitory factor (lif) may play an important role, along with interleukin-6 (il-6) and granulocyte colony stimulating factor (g- csf), in the regulation of early hematopoietic stem cells. the aim of the study was to evaluate serum level of leptin, lif, and il-6 in myeloid leukemia p...

research background approved weight loss would result in improvement of lipid profile. nowadays, weight management is attained by modifying psychological mediators, as well as dieting and making individuals do more physical activity. hence, this research was performed to compare effectiveness of different psychological interventions on lipid profile improvement among individuals with overweight...

background: we studied the effects of high protein (hp) and balanced diets (bds) on lipid profiles, and high‑sensitive c‑reactive protein (hs‑crp) levels in obese and overweight women. methods: in a parallel designed randomized controlled clinical trial, 60 healthy women with body mass index ≥25 kg/m2, aged 20–46 years, enrolled in an 8‑week investigation at aerobic clubs. they were categorized...

background: cancer has the highest disease-related mortality rate in iran. reduced activity of paraoxonase reported in patients with cancer may be due to a reduction in its antioxidant properties and a subsequent increased risk of developing cancer. we aimed to assess antioxidant and oxidative status in patients with cancer through measuring the activity of pon1 as an antioxidant enzyme and det...

background: bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in women may lead to metabolic consequences in patients. this study was performed to determine the glucose tolerance and lipid profile after menopause resulting from bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. methods: from september 2011 to march 2013, 31 women participants aged 46-52 years who underwent hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for beni...

abstract:introduction: racial and environmental differences in communities leading cause of differences in serum lipids. it can be said this study aimed in assessing percentile curves of serum lipid profile about 6-18 years old students of birjand.method: the present cross-sectional study was done on 4168 students of birjand aged 6-18 years. they were classified into three age groups 6-10 and 1...

We have studied the effect of simultaneous oral treatment of aqueous garlic extract (Allium sativum) on heavy metal (nickel II and chromium VI) induced changes in serum lipid profile. Nickel sulfate and potassium dichromate treated rats showed a significant increase in serum low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), very low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (VLDL-C) and triglyceride (TG) leve...

Diabetes mellitus has been suggested to be the most common metabolic disorder associated with magnesium deficiency, having 25% to 39% prevalence. This deficit could be associated with the development of late diabetic complications, especially macroangiopathy.We aimed to evaluate the status of serum Mg in children with type 1 diabetes and assess its relation to glycemic control and lipid profile...
