conclusions examination of the fasting lipid profile has clinical importance in predicting the efficacy of peg-ifn-α-2b plus rbv combination therapy for patients with hcv g1b even after the discovery of the il28 genotype as a potent predictive factor. objectives to re-examine the significance of lipoprotein profiles on virological response to peg-ifn plus rbv combination therapy in patients wit...

background: the potential role of lipoprotein (a) changes and also inflammation in coronary artery disease (cad) have rendered these processes one of the most interesting objects of study in patients affected by type 2 diabetes mellitus. the aim of the current study was to evaluate lipoprotein (a) and other lipid profiles and also c-reactive protein (crp) as the predictors of cardiovascular dis...

Because obese children may suffer life long physical and emotional consequences, this imperative to discuss prevention with parents during well- child examinations. The obesity–related cardiovascular and lipid profiles are determi...

The purpose of the present survey was to determine the effects of the chitosan and atorvastatin on serum lipid profile changes and the influence of time on treatment process in cats. For the management of cholesterol induced hyperlipidemia, twenty-one healthy cats were randomly divided into three equal groups. Group A (control) included seven cats that were fed with cholesterol powder (4 g/kg f...

background: the association between the lipid profiles level and the incidence and severity of coronary heart disease (chd) is very pronounced in epidemiological studies, and an inverse relation between physical fitness and the incidence of coronary heart disease has been observed in many studies. the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of a soccer match on lipid parameters of profe...

background: phytoestrogens are a group of plants derived compounds with weekly estrogen effect that appear to have protective effects on metabolic and hormonal abnormalities of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos). so the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of soy phytoestrogens on reproductive hormones and lipid profiles in pcos women. methods: in this quasi-randomized trial...
