aOutline of study protocol. Normal subjects were measured with SWIR-MPI in the morning after fasting for 10 h overnight. A blood draw was taken immediately after imaging. Subjects then consumed a high-fat meal (containing 60 grams of fat). A second SWIR-MPI measurement and blood draw ...
Blood lipid disorder or dyslipidemia is a key component for the medical care of patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Dietary lipids on the risk of CVD have traditionally been revealed by their effects on low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). This is a cross-over study to evaluate...

Blood samples were taken in the morning for every candidate at day −1 (the day before the operation), day 1 (the first day after the operation) and day 8 (the eighth day after the operation). Samples were collected in a preservation solution and stored at −80 °C. Routine blood ...
The relationship between lipid metabolism and bone mineral density (BMD) is still not fully elucidated. Despite the presence of investigations using osteoporotic animal models, clinical studies in humans are limited. In this work, untargeted lipidomics p
A blank was prepared with ultrapure water using the same extraction tube used for blood collection. 2.2.2. Liquid Chromatography Samples were analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF/MS-Orbitrap QExactive Plus MS) following the ...
The predominant SCFA is acetate, which is absorbed into the liver via the blood and may be converted by acetyl-CoA synthetase 2 (ACSS2) into acetyl-CoA for lipid synthesis in the liver [12]. Fernandes et al. [27] show that the F/B ratio is positively correlated with acetate ...
Blood was harvested in procoagulant tubes during bleeding from the jugular vein and carotid artery on the left side of the neck. Serum was collected after centrifuging at 1800×gat 4 °C for 10 min. Four pieces of meat (2.00 ± 0.20 g) were, respectively, taken from the leftPectoralis Ma...
Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDLs) induce oxidative stress in the liver tissue, leading to hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis. Precise information on the role of oxLDL in this process is needed to establish strategies for the preventio
(seminal fluid and blood serum) has not been studied. We hypothesised that altered availability of lipids in blood serum and seminal fluid may affect the lipid composition and progressive motility of sperm. 60 men of age 35 years (median (range 20–45) and BMI 30.4 kg/m2(24–36.5) under...
