Excessive meat consumption, particularly of red and processed meat, is associated with increased risk of developing a range of chronic diseases. Meat production also significantly contributes to the production of global greenhouse gasses (GHG). Given the predicted global increase in the human population, coupled with the rise in demand for meat within emerging economies, it has been suggested that strategies to alter dietary patterns and reduce meat intake should be devised. With the provision of appropriate non- or reduced-meat alternatives, this study aims to investigate whether free living subjects can significantly reduce their meat intake, and whether such dietary changes positively impact on a range of health measures
The effect of a diet free from animal-sourced nutrients on a variety of risk factors for chronic non-communicable diseases in weight reduction programs is not well established. In this non-randomised interventional study, the investigators will document the effects of a low-fat, plant-based diet supplemented with two daily plant-based meal replacements on serum LDL cholesterol as a primary end-point and total cholesterol, triglycerides, serum fasting glucose, serum urate, serum insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and body fat mass as secondary end-points. These end-points will be measured at baseline, after 10 weeks and after 36 weeks of intervention. Participants will be enrolled in the interventional arm with prescribed low fat plant-based diet from the group of all applicants to a free living population-based diet optimising program. The choice to participate in the study will be made by participants themselves. The investigators hypothesise that low-fat plant based diet supplemented with plant-based meal replacements eaten ad libitum allows a significant reduction of serum LDL cholesterol concentration.
A phase 3 study to evaluate efficacy and safety of Co-administered HGP0904, HGP0608 and HGP0816 in Patients with Hypertension and Dyslipidemia
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of irbesartan/atorvastatin fixed-dose combination comparing to each irbesartan and atorvastatin on flow mediated dilation change in type 2 diabetic patients diagnosed with hyperlipidemia, hypertension. Secondary Objective: To evaluate efficacy of blood pressure and hyperlipidemic factors of irbesartan/atorvastatin fixed-dose combination in type 2 diabetic patients diagnosed with hyperlipidemia and hypertension, with adequately controlled blood glucose levels in groups.
The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of 8-week treatment with omega-3-acid ethyl esters on the lipid and lipoprotein profile in the blood in hyperlipidemic patients receiving a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor by use of HPLC in comparison with the control group of patients not treated with omega-3-acid ethyl esters.
The purpose of this project is to build capacity for quality improvement (QI) in small primary care practices across Washington, Oregon and Idaho by improving risk factors for heart attacks such as blood pressure, cholesterol and smoking. The Northwest Coalition for Primary Care Practice Support will assist practices by providing them with a QI coach, creating group learning opportunities, and conducting educational outreach activities. An innovative study design will be used to determine what levels and types of support are most helpful and effective.
The study is divided into 2 parts. The first part of the study will be double-blinded and will last for 24 weeks. During this time, participants will be randomized in a ratio of 2:1 to receive either evolocumab once monthly (QM) or placebo QM. The second part of the study is a 24-week open label extension period. During this time all participants will receive evolocumab QM. The clinical hypothesis is that subcutaneous evolocumab QM will be well tolerated and will result in greater reduction of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), defined as percent change from baseline at Week 24, compared with placebo QM in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive participants with hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia.
The aim of present study is to investigate any relationship between hyperlipidemia and periodontal disease regarding the periodontal parameters and plasma lipid parameters, along with age, gender, brushing habit, body mass index, dietary habit, physical activity, alcohol consumption. In this cross sectional study, a total of 160 individuals were divided into two groups based on their metabolic status: hyperlipidemic group (n=97) and normolipidemic group (n=63). Plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL) clinical parameters and community periodontal index of treatment needs (CPITN) scores were measured. Triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels had been determined previously during individuals routine systemic examinations. Daily brushing habits and interdental cleaning together with dietary habits, alcohol consumption and physical activity levels were also recorded.
Given preliminary data in animal (proprietary data) have shown that XXS (a mixture of natural polyphenolic extracts of edible plants) has a significant and favourable effect on oxidative stress notably with a decrease in certain markers of oxidative stress and on plasma lipid parameters, the investigator proposes to study the effect of 6 months of treatment with XXS in a controlled study against placebo in a population of persons presenting a lipid profile at the upper limit of normal.
