Filter by:Familial Hypercholesterolemia is a common cause of premature coronary heart disease, it is present in 1 per 500 to 1 per 250 people of the general population. Studies on families of Hypercholesterolemia have shown that children with Hypercholesterolemia have a major increase in risk of coronary heart disease after the age of 20. The difference between Hypercholesterolemia and normal children in their atherogenic profil begin at the age of Nowadays , systematic screening techniques are not well implemented whereas their are clear World health organization guidelines. International studies show treatment must be initiated early as at the age of eight years old. In pediatry, Parents can be reluctant to practice blood test on their children. In order to allow more patients to be diagnosed and treated early enough to prevent major complications we need to find an non invasive test. The main objective is to define the level of detection of cholesterol in saliva with two enzymatic tests. Furthermore we aim to evaluate the performance of salivary detection of cholesterol in children.
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common malignant disease among children. Treatment results have improved over time due to intensive risk-adapted therapy and the 5-year survival rate is now above 90%. However, the burden of therapy has increased proportionally. Many children develop serious acute and chronic side effects, which impact on the patients expected lifespan and impair their quality of life as a result of therapy. Treatment with PEG-asparaginase and dexamethasone increases the levels of triglycerides and total cholesterol. Consequently, the incidence of hyperlipidemia is high during initial ALL therapy. Studies have suggested that hyperlipidemia is a risk factor for development of osteonecrosis, thrombosis and possibly acute pancreatitis. Long-chained marine omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish oil, decrease levels of triglycerides and total cholesterol in hyperlipidemic patients. Due to the high survival rate, it is of great interest to develop methods to reduce treatment related toxicities. The investigators hypothesise that daily intake of fish oil will prevent development of hyperlipidemia during ALL treatment phases with dexamethasone and PEG-asparaginase compared to placebo and that fish oil intake may reduce the incidence of severe adverse events related to ALL treatment.
In this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind parallel study in human participants with elevated LDL-C and elevated BP described here, the clinical benefits of Farlong NotoGinseng™ (Farlong Ginseng Plus® Panax Notoginseng extract), a product made of highly concentrated pharmaceutical grade notoginseng root extract, and containing high potency bioactive components, notoginsenoside, ginsenoside Rb1 and ginsenoside Rg1, will be investigated for its efficacy on LDL-C and blood pressure.
Participants in the intervention group of this study will receive weekly home deliveries of fruit & vegetables for 3 months. The primary objective of this study is to determine if increased access to fruits and vegetables leads to sustained dietary changes, measured through changes in the Healthy Eating Index (HEI). Secondary objectives are to determine whether increased fruit and vegetable access (increased HEI) ultimately leads to improved cardiovascular (CV) health indicators (e.g., body mass index, waist circumference, blood pressure, and levels of blood lipids and hemoglobin A1c).
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of metabolic disorders which increases the risk for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In recent years, research has shown that probiotics may have positive effects on metabolic syndrome components. Although several health-promoting effects of kefir, have been suggested, there is limited evidence for its potential effect on metabolic syndrome. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the effects of kefir on metabolic disorders including obesity, dyslipidemia, diabetes, and hypertension. To address the research gap, this study aimed to investigate the effects of daily kefir consumption on metabolic syndrome components, inflammatory response and gut microbiota composition in adults with MetS. The study was planned as a randomized, controlled, parallel design and completed with a total of 62 individuals who were diagnosed with metabolic syndrome according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) criteria. Participants were randomized into two groups and received daily 180 ml of kefir (n=31) or milk (as control) (n=31) for 12 weeks. Participants were assessed at baseline, week 4, week 8, and week 12 and at all controls dietary records, anthropometric measurements, and blood samples were collected. At baseline and 12th-week fecal samples were also collected in order to analyze gut microbiota composition.
Epidemiological and clinical evidence suggests that high-dose intake of long-chain n-3 fatty acids have a favorable role in altering blood TG and non-HDL cholesterol when combined with statins in hyperlipidemic patients. Their efficacy in altering low density lipoprotein cholesterol particle size and concentration is yet to be confirmed. This study evaluates the effects of adding 4/day eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) + docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to stable statin therapy on blood TG, non-HDL, LDL-C as well as small dense (sdLDL) particle concentration in a group of hyperlipidemic patients. In this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind parallel group study, 44 subjects who were already on statin therapy for > 8 weeks and had non-HDL-C levels above the National Lipid Association Recommendations were randomized into two groups. For 8 weeks, together with their prescribed atorvastatin, the intervention group received 4g/day EPA+DHA (in ethyl ester form) while the control group received 4g/day olive oil (placebo). Baseline measurements of non-HDL-C, TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, VLDL-C and sdLDL were repeated at week 8. Differences in dietary intake were assessed with a weighed 3-day food diary at week 4. Primary outcome measures are the percent change in non-HDL-C and sdLDL particle concentration from baseline to the end.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo- controlled phaseⅠb/Ⅱclinical study. Totally 108 subjects are planned to enrolled with 36 subjects in three low-dose groups (group 1, group 2 and group 3) and 72 subjects in three high-dose groups (group 4, group 5, and group 6).12 subjects with hyperlipidemia who received statin stable treatment for more than 28 days are enrolled in each low-dose group, randomly given SHR-1209 or placebo treatment at a ratio of 5:1. 24 subjects with hyperlipidemia who received statin stable treatment for more than 28 days are enrolled in each high-dose group, randomly given SHR-1209 or placebo treatment at a ratio of 5:1. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of multiple subcutaneous injections of SHR-1209 in hyperlipidemia subjects treated with stabilized dose of statin. Groups detail as follows: 1. SHR-1209 dose 1 /placebo frequence 1 2. SHR-1209 dose 2 /placebo frequence 2 3. SHR-1209 dose 3 /placebo frequence 3 4. SHR-1209 dose 4 /placebo frequence 1 5. SHR-1209 dose 5 /placebo frequence 2 6. SHR-1209 dose 6 /placebo frequence 3
At present,the prevalence of hyperlipidemia in Chinese adults is 40.40%,which is related to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and diabetes independent risk factors,while increasing the risk of cancer.Lipid metabolism affects the nutritional status of the intestinal epithelium,making the intestine Changes in the microenvironment of the intestinal flora affect the distribution of intestinal flora and eventually lead to bile acid metabolism change.Bile acid is a signal molecule that regulates glucose and lipid and energy metabolism in vivo State.The regulation of intestinal flora may be a new way to treat the imbalance of lipid metabolism,but it is currently sensitive to lipid metabolism the microbiome studies are unclear.In this study, newly diagnosed overweight patients with hyperlipidemia were treated with cholesterol absorption inhibition The drug intervention of ezeomab tablet and orlistat capsule for 12 weeks was observed to observe the changes of intestinal flora and bile acid metabolism after excessive cholesterol and triglyceride production.Clinical screening for the treatment of hyperlipidemia the study provides a reference for bacteria species and prevention and treatment,and provides a research basis for further development of drugs or foods that interfere with lipid metabolism by interfering with intestinal flora.
To investigate the proportion, medication use and control rate of metabolic abnormalities such as dyslipidemia in outpatients with hypertension in different levels of hospitals in China. To investigate the gap between guidelines and clinical practices, and analyze the cause. we also set up a continuing medical education program to narrow the gap and the effect of the program will be estimated.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of adding beta-glucan (1.5 g, 3 g or 6 g daily) administered three times a day (TID) in divided doses, to atorvastatin (10 mg - 20 mg) once a day or an equivalent dose of another statin on heart disease lipid risk factors.
