background: the present study was conducted in order to evaluate the effects of bilateral uterine artery ligation (bual) on the ovarian follicular fate, and alterations in carbohydrate, lipid, lipase and serum levels of f9sh, lh, prolactin, estrogen and progesterone. methods: twenty-four mature female rabbits divided into two test and control-sham groups. the animals underwent ovariohystrectomy...

OBJECTIVE: Oxidative stress is a serious complication in diabetic patients. Black tea and also sour tea contained some flavonoids with antioxidant properties and may be helpful in prevention of lipid oxidation. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of sour tea and black tea on in-vitro copper induced serum lipids oxidizability in diabetic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this se...

background: a close relationship has been reported between level of serum iron and ischemic heart diseases which is either brought about through direct effect of serum iron on myocardial cells or as an indirect result of elevated serum lipid profile. a widespread use of iron supplements has been observed due to the high prevalence of iron deficiency anemia. yet an elevated serum lipid is strong...

data regarding the effects of dietary protein on modifying serum lipid and lipoprotein levels are controversial. in this study we have investigated the hypothesis whether dietary protein and protein to carbohydrate ratio could be related to subsequent changes in lipid profile in adults.this 3-yaers follow-up_longitudinal study was conducted on a sample of participants (845 men and 1043 women, a...

because the ingestion of some types of dietary fibers has been shown to influence on the lipid and lipoprotein levels, it is possible that chitosan influences on lipid metabolism. in the present study, the effects of chitosan on the serum, liver lipid and lipoprotein concentrations in rat were investigated. serum lipid level in the treatment groups were decreased compared to that of the control...
