background: serum lipids abnormalities have been observed in various forms of cancers including acute leukemia. investigators report decreased total cholesterol and hdl, and elevated triglyceride in leukemic patients. limited studies had been performed to discover the correlation between abnormal lipids profile and disease activity in leukemic patients in iran. this study was done to evaluate t...

abstract probiotic products highly affect the health of consumers by reducing the risk of heart attacks and improving of desirable microflora in intestinal tract. in this study the effect of yogurt (500g/d for 3 wk) enriched with either bifidobacterium bifidum or lactobacillus acidophilus on the level of cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (ldl) and high density lipoprotein (hdl) of serum and ...

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...

introduction: abnormal lipid profile causes maternal mortality and impairs fetal development. this study investigated the effect of ramadan fasting on plasma lipid profile in pregnant women. material and methods: this self-control, cohort study was performed in healthy volunteer fasted pregnant women. serum cholesterol, triglyceride (tg), low density lipoprotein (ldl), high density lipoprotein ...

background: coronary artery disease (cad) is one of the leading causes of death and disability around the world. interaction between genetic and environmental factors determines susceptibility of an individual to develop coronary artery disease . lipoprotein lipase (lpl) play an important role in the metabolism of hdl-c ( high density lipoprotein cholesterol ), ldl-c (low density lipoprotein ch...

Background: Dyslipidemia is considered an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD). In the present study, we examined lipid profiles and paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity and atherogenic indexes status and the relationship of PON1 activity by high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and atherogenic indexes in CHD patients and healthy people. Methods: The aim of the study was to compare PON...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The role of lipoprotein abnormalities in the development of ischemic cerebrovascular disease has not been sufficiently clarified. The aim of this study was to identify the lipoprotein profile in ischemic cerebrovascular disease and the possible role of apolipoprotein E polymorphism. METHODS The relation between the concentrations of lipoprotein(a), intermediate density ...

Six hundred 1-d-old male broilers (Ross 308) were assigned to four experimental groups; each was composed of 5 floor pen replications of 30 birds including control (no enalapril), 15, 30 and 60 ppm enalapril in the drinking water. From d 21 to 49, all the chicks were exposed to low ambient temperature to induce ascites. Mortalities were inspected to determine the cause of death and diagnose of ...

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein is known as an important factor in the development of atherosclerosis. The introduction of a sensitive procedure for the determination of oxidized low-density lipoprotein in human circulating plasma using a monoclonal antibody recognizing oxidized phosphatidylcholines has opened new fields of research based on in vivo oxidized low-density lipoprotein. The plasma...
