Background: Arguments have continued for long concerning low carbohydrate diet and calorie restriction (calorie-restricted diet). Authors have reported clinical studies of low carbohydrate diet on ketone bodies, glucose variability and Morbus value so far. Subjects and methods: Subjects are 28 patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus, which were 20/8 (M/F) with 48.3 ± 13.9 years old with serum tr...

The values of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol obtained according to the Friedewald formula (Clin Chem 1972; 18:499-502), or by the De Long transformation (J Am Med Assoc 1986;256:2372-7), were compared with the values obtained when the individual cholesterol/triglyceride ratio of very-low-density lipoprotein was used for estimating the contribution of this lipoprotein to the total cholester...

teucrium polium is an analgesic, antidiabetic and antilipeidemic herbal medicament. the aim of this survey was to evaluate the effect of aqueous extract t. polium on liver enzymes linked to liver dysfunction, serum lipids and glucose, in diabetic male rats. methods: a total of 20 sprague-dawly male rats became diabetic by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (60 mg/kg). the animals were ...

the present study was conducted to investigate the effect of corn substitution with triticale in grower diets (zero, 50 and 100%) with/without exogenous enzyme supplementation on growth performance, digestive organs relative weight, jejunal morphology and blood lipids of quail chicks. two hundred and forty one-day-old unsexed japanese quail chicks were randomly assigned to a completely randomiz...

in order to determine the lipids and lipoproteins profiles in iranian khouzestanian arab horses, blood samples were collected from the jugular vein of 77 horses(47 female, 30 male) from different age groups(< 6, 7-12, 12-36, 37-60, 61- 69 and > 96 months). serum cholesterol and triglyceride were measured by enzymatic methods and lipoproteins by precipitation methods. the results were analyzed b...

Introduction Contraception is a method of avoiding unplanned pregnancy. Combined oral contraceptives (COCs) have become prominent birth control due to their contraceptive efficacy and acceptability profile. The use pills (OCPs) linked several health advantages as well problems. Oral can alter carbohydrate lipid metabolism, including increased in blood glucose, triglyceride, low density lipoprot...

The dyslipidemia associated with hypopituitarism may contribute to increased vascular mortality. The atherogenic potential of lipoproteins is determined not only by concentration but also by their composition. We therefore studied very low-density lipoprotein composition and apolipoprotein B kinetics in 16 hypopituitary subjects and 16 controls. Hypopituitarism was associated with reduced high-...
