Filter by:Visceral obesity is strongly associated with dyslipidaemia (hypertriglyceridaemia, low HDL-cholesterol and mildly elevated LDL-cholesterol) and insulin resistance, key characteristics of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Recent evidence has clearly established that the risk of CVD is increased in subjects with the MetS. The precise reason for this remains unclear, but appears to be closely related with dyslipidaemia. Effective management of dyslipidaemia is important to reduce the risk of CVD in these subjects. Hypothesis: Inhibition of hepatic cholesterol synthesis by statins and triglyceride synthesis by fish oils improve lipoprotein metabolism in visceral obese men.
This study will assess and compare the efficacy and safety of valsartan and the combination of valsartan and simvastatin in patients with high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
This study will investigate the effects of the combination of fluvastatin and fenofibrate on dyslipidemia in comparison to the combination of simvastatin and ezetimibe.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a combined behavioral and pharmacological intervention provided by a multidisciplinary team will further reduce LDL-C, smoking, BP and Hb-A1C in diabetic patients with A1c between 7% and 9% when compared to usual care.
The purpose of this research is to study whether a multidisciplinary education in Diabetes and intervention for cardiac risk reduction in a group setting to modify patient behavior and adjust medications can achieve diabetes guideline goals for glycemia, blood pressure and lipid control.
The rationale of the study is to clarify whether the supplementation of irbesartan with ciprofibrate could increase the antihypertensive effect, could improve the endothelial functions, and/or could affect the atherogenic small-dense LDL-, oxydized LDL concentrations, onto the paraoxinase activity and on the CRP and insulin levels.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of omega-3-fatty acids in HIV-infected patients with hypertriglyceridemia. In addition, we, the researchers, will evaluate the effect of omega-3 fatty acid administration of markers of bone turnover and inflammation.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the benefits of combination niacin ER/lovastatin in patients receiving standard care who are not at LDL goal per ATP III guidelines.
Primary objective: to assess the effect of AVE1625 on weight loss over a period of 24 weeks in abdominally obese patients with atherogenic dyslipidemia. Secondary objectives: - To assess the dose effect relationship of AVE1625 on HDL-cholesterol and triglycerides plasma levels over a period of 24 weeks - To assess the efficacy of AVE1625 on secondary parameters such as waist circumference and other metabolic parameters over a period of 24 weeks - To assess the safety and tolerabillity of AVE1625 over a period of 24 weeks.
This is a sixteen-week double-blind active-controlled follow-on and 28-week single-blind extension study for patients who participated in study NK-104-305.
