Filter by:The findings of previous experiments suggested that polyunsaturated fatty acids(PUFAs) has been linked to anti-hyperlipidemia, and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.This is a randomized double-blind trial, aims to study the effect of PUFAs on blood lipids and human metabolism. Firstly, the investigators will investigate the efficacy of mixed plant oil(echium oil, camelina oil, safflower oil) and pure echium oil on improving the levels of blood lipids. Secondly, next generation sequencing (NGS), ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (UPLC-MS/MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry detection will be conducted to explore the role of PUFAs on gut microbiota as well as metabolites. Thirdly, single nucleotide polymorphism will be genotyped by Time-of-flight mass spectrometry to find the gene-environment interaction effect.
In this study, within the secondary prevention group patients ( diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, who have had events atherosclerotic cerebrovascular ) , statin use requirement , patients compliance and reaching target LDL-cholesterol levels (according to European guidelines ) will be evaluated.
The study examines the effect of hormone replacement in postmenopausal women compared to men, 55 years of age, and in the elderly without hormone replacement of both sexes. The lipid and glucose metabolism is evaluated during treatment and placebo with a meal with mashed potatoes and different types of fat. Glucose, insulin, triglyceride, total cholesterol, LDL and HDL cholesterol, free fatty acids and coagulation parameters are measured. During menopause the women reduce their levels of estrogen and their risk of cardiovascular disease rises to the men's level. This effect on mortality and morbidity can probably be reduced by hormone therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of acupuncture and moxibustion compared with active control, on absolute and percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) among those with hyperlipidemia.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of dietary supplements (BioTurmin, BioTurmin-WD and MaQxan) on cotinine level and oxidative stress marker in chronic smokers having mild to moderate hyperlipidemia after 30 and 60 days of intervention.

Cardiovascular prevention include a class I indication to statins in addition to non-pharmacologic intervention and prevention strategies in patients deemed to be 'high risk' according to current scientific guidelines. In the real world, however, statin treatment is often discontinued due to side effects. In addition, statins are not indicated in those subjects deemed to be 'low risk', in whom only non-pharmacologic intervention and prevention strategies are currently prescribed. Along with non-pharmacologic intervention and prevention strategies, newer approaches to reduce cholesterol blood levels currently include nutraceuticals, which are compounds derived from foods with cholesterol lowering actions. The primary objective of this study is twofold: First, to prospectively compare in the real world clinical practice the efficacy and tolerability of non-pharmacologic intervention vs. the combination of non-pharmacologic intervention with a nutraceutical-based protocol in patients in whom statin treatment is not tolerated or is not indicated. Second, to evaluate gender and race/ethnic differences in the hypolipidemic effects of a nutraceutical-based protocol among European countries.
This is a 12-week, randomized, multicenter, double-blind, active-controlled, non-inferiority study (TATPITA20101005) to compare the efficacy and safety of pitavastatin (Livalo®) and atorvastatin (Lipitor®) in high risk hypercholesterolemic patients.
In this randomized controlled trial, we will provide primary care physicians with free samples of highly effective generic cardiovascular medications. We will test whether this intervention will stimulate cost-effective prescribing, reducing drug costs and improving adherence to essential cardiovascular medications.
