Background: Evidence of increased oxidative stress due to endothelial dysfunction in pre‐eclampsia has been well‐established. Increase in the oxidative stress is associated with abnormal lipid profile. Aim: The aim of the study is to compare serum lipids in pre‐eclamptic women and healthy pregnant women. Subjects and Methods: In this case‐control study, blood samples were collected from 40 preg...

OBJECTIVE To study the association between non-fasting serum triglyceride concentrations and mortality in women from coronary and cardiovascular disease and all causes. DESIGN Follow up by ambulatory teams of men and women who underwent cardiovascular screening for a mean of 14.6 years. SETTING National health screening service in Norway. SUBJECTS 25,058 men and 24,535 women aged 35-49 ye...

Single intraperitoneal injections (of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 ml per kilogram body weight) of a solution of sodium pentobarbital (50 mg/mI, in propylene glycol, 40 ml/100 ml) elevated rat serum triglyceride values obtained by the semi-automated fluorometric method of Kessler and Lederer. Increases of 267, 619, and 813%, respectively, were noted within 5 mm. Liver triglycerides and other major lipid f...

purpose: to evaluate the association between hyperlipidemia with severity of diabetic retinopathy in patients with type i diabetes mellitus referred to the eye clinic at imam khomeini hospital, ahvaz, iran. methods: this observational cross-sectional study included 52 patients with type i diabetes mellitus. fasting blood samples for analysis of serum lipids and hba1c were obtained from all pati...

Lipoprotein electrophoresis was performed on serum from subjects with and without coronary heart disease, and the patterns compared with the serum concentrations of triglyceride and cholesterol. The beta- and pre-beta-lipoproteins, expressed as a percentage of the total lipoprotein, correlate strongly with the cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations, respectively. The beta- and pre-beta-lip...

Recent studies have documented the importance of lipids and lipoproteins as determinants of serum total homocysteine concentrations in persons with myocardial infarction, and in healthy subjects. Associations between various biological systems and total homocysteine have also been reported. However, some of these associations are poorly understood. The purpose of our study was to measure serum ...

Glucose tolerance, serum insulin, insulin receptors in epididymal fat tissue, circulating total cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations as well as serum prolactin were studied in obese and lean spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) of both sexes. Obese animals displayed insulin resistance and elevated insulin and triglyceride concentrations. Moreover, in obese rats the increased mass of epi...
