Filter by:During dietary fat absorption, the gut packages the majority of the fats into lipid particles that are secreted into blood circulation. The gut is also capable of storing a considerable amount of fats that can be released at a later time upon receiving certain stimulus signals. One of the signals is glucose ingestion. This protocol examines blood lipid responses to a glucose drink. Participants drink a fatty formula and 5 hours later drink either a glucose solution or water (as control), in one of two randomized study visits. Blood lipid levels are monitored throughout the study period.
To investigate the therapeutic effect of ezetimibe on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, the effect of rosuvastatin 5mg monotherapy and rosuvastatin 5mg / ezetimibe 10mg combination therapy n patients with hyperlipidemia and fatty liver will be compared and analyzed. This study included a total of 70 patients (35 per subgroup) for randomized controlled trials with prospective, open label, randomized, single-institution clinical trials. The drug will be maintained for a total of six months. The primary endpoint is the difference of liver fat change measured by MRI-PDFF in colocalized regions of interest within nine liver segments between two groups.
It is well known that medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) and diacylglycerols (DGs) have effects on lowering circulating triglycerides (TGs). In this study, the mixture of MCTs and DGs (MCDGs) examined whether it has beneficial effects on postprandial lipids metabolism compared to long-chain triglycerides (TGs).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether psyllium is effective in reducing flushing due to niacin and also to measure the effect of niacin on cholesterol levels.
This is a single center, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy of AKCEA-ANGPTL3-LRx for reduction of triglyceride (TG) levels in participants with FCS.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Bempedoic Acid (BA) + Ezetimibe (EZE) in a fixed-dose combination (FDC) is effective and safe versus its individual components and placebo in patients with elevated LDL cholesterol treated with maximally tolerated statin therapy.
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of daily supplementation of Citron(Citrus Junos Siebold ex Tanaka) Peel Extract on improvement of Blood Cholesterol.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a preliminary test of the effectiveness of various educational interventions to promote adoption of a whole-food, plant-strong diet and reduce specific cardiovascular risk factors in Veterans, and subsequently perform a preliminary pilot study on whether this dietary approach will change plaque inflammation and endothelial function.
Dyslipidemias are a major risk factor for the onset of cardiovascular disease, while early diagnosis and appropriate treatment approaches significantly reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The aim is to provide revised Greek guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of dyslipidaemias. The lipids of the human body are cholesterol (it is used to synthesize cell membranes, adrenal hormones and gonads and is a component of bile) and triglycerides (used as a fuel and as a storage of energy in adipose tissue). Dyslipidemias are disorders (quantitative or qualitative) of the metabolism of lipoprotein particles [low density lipoproteins (LDL), chylomic, high density lipoproteins (HDL), very low density lipoproteins (VLDL)] that carry lipids into the body. Primary prevention in subjects aged 40-65 years with no known clinical atherosclerotic disease and without diabetes or chronic renal disease should evaluate the likelihood of a fatal cardiovascular event over the next 10 years. For this purpose, it is recommended to use the Greek version of the SCORE of the Hellenic Heart SCORE.
Lipoprotein lipase deficiency (LPLD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder, characterized by loss-of function mutations in the LPL gene, leading to the inability to produce functionally active lipoprotein lipase (LPL). LPL is the key enzyme in the metabolism of triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins (chylomicrons (CM) and very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL)). LPLD results in extremely high concentrations of circulating TG-rich lipoproteins. No drug therapy for LPLD is currently available. Clinical management of LPLD patients consists of severe dietary fat restriction and the use of medium-chain triglycerides to substitute for normal dietary fats. Alipogene tiparvovec (Glybera®) received marketing authorisation from the European commission on 25 October 2012. Glybera® aims to correct lipoprotein lipase deficiency sufficiently to decrease the morbidity and lower the risk of inherent complications of LPLD, in adult patients genetically diagnosed with LPLD. The Glybera Registry is designed to collect the long-term safety and efficacy data of GLYBERA®
