Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether supplement of plant sterol could lower blood cholesterol.
This trial tests the hypothesis that increasing nonverbal affection in romantic relationships will improve blood lipid parameters (total cholesterol, high and low density lipoproteins, triglycerides), blood glucose, and immune parameters (C-reactive protein and antibodies to latent Epstein-Barr virus). 52 healthy cohabiting romantic couples took part. In half of the couples, one partner increased the frequency of romantic kissing with the other partner during the six-week trial. The other couples received no such instruction. Blood tests performed before and after the trial were used to assess the health outcomes.
This is a 20-week clinical trial in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia to demonstrate the effect of MK-0524B compared to MK-0524A + Simvastatin on lipid values.
This is a multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ezetimibe/simvastatin versus rosuvastatin in participants with high cholesterol.
This is a 12-Week clinical trial in patients with Primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia to study the effects of ER niacin/laropiprant on lipids.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of extended dosing of mipomersen in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia on lipid-lowering therapy who have completed either the 301012-CS8 (NCT00280995) or 301012-CS9 (NCT00281008) clinical drug trials.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of the study drug, AEGR-733 alone and in combination with the medication, atorvastatin (Lipitor), on cholesterol in volunteers with moderately high cholesterol.
The aim of our study is to Estimate the reduction of LDL by ezetimibe in hypercholesterolemic patients on simvastatin.Investigate the effect of LDL lowering by ezetimibe on platelet activity and LDL tendency to peroxidation in hypercholesterolemic patients on simvastatin therapy The hypothesis is that: 1. LDL lowering by ezetimibe on-top of simvastatin in patients on fixed dose of simvastatin can reduce platelet aggregation, due to the potential decreasing of cholesterol content in the platelet membranes. 2. LDL lowering by ezetimibe can lower LDL tendency to peroxidation.
Aspirin resistance is the persistent platelet activation, demonstrated by platelet function tests (1). The hypothesis is that:LDL lowering by statin in patients with aspirin resistance can improve the effect of aspirin due to the potential decreasing of cholesterol content in the platelet membranes. Patients and methods:Forty hypercholesterolemic patients with aspirin resistance after 5 days of treatment with aspirin and high LDL and triglycerides<300 mg/dL, will be enrolled. Ten healthy volunteers will be the control group.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABT-335 and rosuvastatin calcium combination therapy to monotherapy in subjects with dyslipidemia.
