Thus, the present invention provides a method for the determination of triglycerides by enzymatic saponification by means of a lipase and measurement of the liberated glycerol, which process comprises carrying out the saponification in the presence of carboxylesterase and of an alkali metal or alkaline...
What it means is that you are more likely to get cancer if you’re obese or diabetic than if you’re not, and you’re more likely to get cancer if you have metabolic syndrome than if you don’t. Cancer Is Rare in Non-Western Diets. The second observation was that malignant cancer...
Following multiple doses of 60 mg olezarsen (every 4 weeks for 4 doses), plasma concentrations peaked at approximately 2 h, were quantifiable in all participants up to Day 141, and declined in a biexponential manner (Supplementary Fig. 2B, C). The AUC(0-24h) geometric means (CV%) were...
We used maximum-likelihood methods to simultaneously estimate the phenotypic means and SDs, heritabilities (h2), effects of sex, age-by-sex, eight dietary and medical covariates, and genetic and environ...
Categorical variables are presented as numbers (percentage), continuous variables as mean ± standard deviation (SD). No normally distributed data were Ln transformed. For descriptive purposes, we compared means ± SD or percentages, as appropriate, across the TG/HDL-C ratio quartiles, an...
The quartiles of lipid ratios and TG were calculated in women and men respectively, and subjects were split up into groups based on corresponding quartiles (Supplemental Table 3). Categorical variables were presented as frequencies (percentages). Continuous variables were expressed as means ± ...
One sample t-tests were used to compare means of the deltas of the endpoints. ANCOVA was used for comparison of the change in the endpoints between the groups after adjustment for predetermined baseline variables including age, sex, race, body fat percent, BMI, diastolic blood pressure, HbA1c...
Because cholesterol is a fatty substance, aka a lipid, it can't dissolve or mix into the blood. That means it can't travel through the bloodstream on its own. So, the liver packages cholesterol along with other fats into little protein-covered particles called lipoproteins, according to Harva...
Triglycerides are an important means for the storage of food, not only fats, but also excess carbohydrates and proteins. This can be found in the adipose tissue in the body. When broken down into fatty acids and metabolized by the cell, triglycerides can release large amounts of energy which...
However, it should be noted that AUROC for the TyG index was about 0.71, which means only approximately 70% individuals with low testosterone could be accurately identified. Meanwhile, some clinical pathological conditions, such as dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome, might influence the values of TyG ...
