7.Heart: An apolipoprotein B (apoB) blood test, the best indicator of heart-attack risk. 8.Mutations in the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) are one of the strongest risk factors for late-onset Alzheimer’s. 9.The bacteria-slaying, soap-like protein is an apolipoprotein called APOL3. 10.To...
features in the mid IR spectrum that make it identifiable within blood serum leads to the invented use of a statistical correlation between a concentration of apolipoprotein-B (apoB) in a sample of blood serum and infrared spectral features of the blood serum sample to produce a test for ap...
Excess apolipoprotein B and cardiovascular risk in women and men. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2024;83(23):2262-2273. doi:10.1016/j.jacc.2024.03.423 Grundy SM, Stone NJ, Bailey AL, et al. 2018 AHA/ACC/AACVPR/AAPA/ABC/ACPM/ADA/AGS/APhA/ASPC/NLA/PCNA Guideline on the Management of Blood...
Blood tests were taken at the first time when the patients were hospitalized, and on participants fasting for at least four hours and the blood samples were collected into tubes containing 0.1% EDTA for immediate serum lipid analyses. Using fasting venous blood samples, we measured total ...

Subjects were allowed to walk during the test and to drink water. No food or smoking was permitted until the end of the study. Blood samples were obtained through an intravenous catheter that had been inserted into a forearm vein. Samples were taken just before (baseline) and at 2, 4, 6...
Comparisons of categorical variables were assessed using χ2 tests or Fisher's exact test. P < 0.05 was considered as significant. Results: Analysis showed that obese subjects had significantly higher value of the waist-to-hip ratio, blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), and lipid profile. ...
We studied the effect of acarbose on blood sugar parameters, and on the levels of lipids, apoprotein AI (apo A) and B (apo B), lipoprotein lipase activity (LpL) and composition of the main lipoproteins in 12 type II diabetic subjects, suboptimally controlled with diet and sulphonylureas. ...
