Explain the health implications of LDL and HDL and the factors that raise or lower these lipoproteins.Lipids:These are organic molecules composed of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. Sometimes they contain phosphorous and nitrogen too. Examples are fat, wax, oil, choleste...
LDL cholesterolHDL cholesterolThis article discusses the results of six randomized trials that examined the effects of fibrates and gemfibrozil on the prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). The trials showed inconsistent results, and the authors sought to understand the...
The main lipoproteins in blood include high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels and plasma concentrations of total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides (TG). These traits have moderate to high heritability: 40–60% for HDL, 40–50% for LDL, 35–48% for TG (...
Avocados are enjoyed by everyone in every corner of the world. Here is what scientists say will happen to your body when you eat an avocado every day.
aMetabolic profiling on days -28, -21, -14, and -7 for the following parameters: glucose, insulin, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides and FFA 新陈代谢描出在几天-28, -21, -14和-7为以下参量: 葡萄糖、胰岛素、总胆固醇、LDL、HDL、甘油三酸酯和FFA[translate] ...
Moreover, we only had access to data on total cholesterol levels which was why we could not analyze ORs of low HDL- or high LDL-cholesterol levels. Studies have indicated that lifestyle choices such as exercise and low-sodium high-potassium diet can lead to decreased blood pressure[20] and...
Total serum cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, and triglyceride levels were similar. Among fatty acids, stearic acid was high and arachidonic acid was low in the high mortality area. The levels of other traditional risk factors were the same. After taking these differences into account...
In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), cardiovascular risk is associated with paradoxical reductions in total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C). Concentrations of small LDL (LDL-P) and HDL (HDL-P) particles are also reduced with ...
This is not explained by triglycerides (TG), LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) or HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C). We examined whether a loss of the sex difference in lipoprotein panicle size explains the altered sex difference in CAC in type 1 DM. Electron beam CT scanning...
The most prevalent CVD risk factors among participants were elevated low density lipoprotein- cholesterol (LDL-C) (69.8 %) and systolic blood pressure (SBP) (68.2 %), followed by central obesity (57.1 %), low levels of high density lipoprotein-Cholesterol (HDL-C) (56.3 %), ...
