MURATA, K. and NAKAZAWA, K. Lipid Changes in Serum Following Drug Shock and Intoxication. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1971, 104 (3), 225-232 Serum lipid changes were investigated following a drug shock and 16 intoxication cases. Analyses of serum lipid fractions showed that both drug shock and intoxication resulted in a demonstrable decrease of triglyceride and a trend of increase of phospholipid. The...

Hypercholesterolaemia has been predicted as a possible complication of chenodeoxycholic acid treatment for gall stones. To exclude this, fasting serum lipids were measured in patients with stones before and at monthly intervals for six months after starting chenodeoxycholic acid. Before treatment half of a group of 36 patients with presumed cholesterol gall stones had serum cholesterol levels e...

Mean serum cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations were higher for two groups of sedentary middle-aged and elderly men than for a group of physically-active, middle-aged farmers, all from rural Puriscal, Costa Rica. The mean serum cholesterol, triglyceride, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-risk factor levels of the three groups were all higher than the comparable US means. Dietary fat and...

Studies of serum lipids in adults and children receiving most of their dietary fat as medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) have given variable results. Uzawa et al. (1964) showed that significant and maintained hypertriglyceridaemia occurred in individuals in calorie balance, whereas in hypocaloric states no such change was found. A slight fall in serum cholesterol levels was observed in 8 adults wh...

Early detection of feline hepatic lipidosis (FHL) with appropriate treatment can increase prognosis significantly. This study looks into the serum biochemistry and lipid composition liver samples in a group stray cats (N=18) collected from pounds Klang Valley, Malaysia. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) blood was used to detect for damage possibly due FHL, confirmed through light microscopy, (trig...

Background and Objective: Lowering serum glucose and lipid levels in diabetic patients by using natural materials is of great importance. In this study, the effect of oral consumption of Fumaria Parviflora Lamwas was assessed on serum glucose and lipid levels in streptozocin diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 32 male Wistar rats were divided into four groups of co...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A previous study showed that low triglyceride concentration predicts higher mortality after stroke. The aim of our study was to determine whether serum triglyceride level is associated with stroke severity on admission. METHODS 863 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke were included. Serum triglyceride level was measured within 36 hours after stroke onset. Str...
