Correlation between fatty acids intake, serum lipid and lipoproteins with serum creatinine and kidney function in patients with renal failure has been suggested by other investigators. This relationship has not been reported for all types of fatty acids. This study was conducted to determine the association of the consumption of different type of fatty acids, serum lipids and lipoproteins with ...

Biomarkers will play important roles in disease diagnosis, drug development, and the proper use of drugs. Blood is considered the best biofluid for biomarker research because it is easy to access and a wealth of data are available. However, previous studies revealed that several ionic metabolites showed different levels (including presence or absence) in plasma and serum. Thus, attention should...

objective: the lipid composition of a mammal’s spermatozoa and seminal plasma vary in both structure and function. evidence exists to suggest that dietary supplementation with the appropriate polyunsaturated fatty acids (pufas) affects spermatogenesis, semen quality and sperm motility. therefore, this study has been conducted to evaluate the correlations between serum lipid profile and histolog...

Background: High concentrations of serum inflammatory and oxidative stress markers and lipid abnormities are important risk factors for cardiovascular diseases in hemodialysis patients. This study aims to investigate the effects of Nigella sativa oil on serum levels inflammation and oxidative stress markers and lipid profile in hemodialysis patients. Methods: Fifty hemodialysis patients partici...
