Resumen
The National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel II (NCEP ATP II) unequivocally advocates an initial trial of dietary modification in both primary and secondary prevention prior to the institution of pharmacotherapy. Perhaps the rationale for this delay rests in the inherent, yet unsubstantiated, fear among clinicians that lifestyle change will be compromised in the presence of concurrent pharmacotherapy. However, the question of adherence to diet and exercise interventions following the initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy has seemingly never been addressed scientifically

Resumen
Plant sterols (PS) lower total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and inflammatory markers, and decrease risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Exercise increases high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and decreases triglycerides (TG) and inflammation, also reducing the risk of CVD. The study objective was to investigate the combined effects of PS and exercise on apolipoproteins (apo) A and B, adiponectin, growth hormone (GH) and ghrelin, in context of previously obtained lipid data.

FH is a common autosomal co-dominant disease characterised by raised cholesterol levels and premature coronary heart disease (CHD). Whilst these features usually are very prominent in homozygotes the clinical diagnosis of heterozygotes is complicated by variable phenotypic expression. Specific founder genes in the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene have increased the prevalence of FH in So

Background. A high ratio of total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, in addition to increased levels of small low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles, are important indicators of cardiovascular disease risk. Therefore, interventions that combine the lowering of total cholesterol and raising of HDL cholesterol concentrations that also increase LDL particle size, may be preventive against cardiovascular disease. Plant sterols decrease total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels by 10-15%, while exercise increases HDL cholesterol levels by 4-22%. In view of their compleme

This thesis describes the physical and biochemical characteristics of heterozygous FH in a large cohort consisting of 208 women and 156 men.

Resumen
Statins are widely used to treat hypercholesterolemia. Statins inhibit cholesterol biosynthesis, thereby activating genes involved in cholesterol homeostasis, which are under the control of the Sterol Regulatory Element (SRE). Statins also have cholesterol-independent beneficial cardiovascular effects mediated through the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K) / Akt signaling pathway and by inhibition of protein prenylation. Because statins inhibit the synthesis of isoprenoids, they can act by inhibiting the small signaling GTPases Ras and Rho, which require post-translational prenylation to become

Atherosclerosis and stroke-related conditions have been identified by the South African Department of Health as priority diseases (South African Department of Health, 1998). Hypercholesterolaemia was estimated to have caused 4.6% of all deaths in South Africa in 2000 and is therefore an important cardiovascular risk factor in all population groups in South Africa (Norman et al, 2007).

The normal group was fed regular rabbit chow and the cholesterol group was fed a chow containing 0.5% cholesterol. 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) is a main index of oxidatively damage DNA. We extracted DNA in the liver tissues and blood vessel of NZW rabbits. Sample analysis was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography /electrochemical detector (HPLC-ECD). These data revealed that 8-OHdG increased signific

Resumen
M.Tech. (Homoeopathy)<br>South Africa is a diverse and multi-cultured country where coronary vascular disease has become a leading cause of mortality among all sub-cultures. According to the South African Dyslipidaemia Guidelines Consensus Statement published in 2012 it is estimated that every day 80 people die of myocardial infarcts and 60 people die of strokes. Hypercholesterolaemia is associated with the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaques which lead to the condensing and restriction of vessel walls. This in turn leads to an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease which can

Resumen
目的:針對心血管初級預防,世界各國均推薦某一年齡段人群全部測量膽固醇以估算心血管病發病風險。此舉耗費高且非必須,本研究旨在建立並驗證一個新型的选择性膽固醇篩查模型,用以篩查需藥物治療之高危人群,并在成本效益方面與其它篩查模型相比較。<br>方法:本模型具體采用兩步法:首先利用一個足夠高的假設膽固醇值代入心血管病風險預測方程,用以系統性的高估絶大多數人的心血管病風險;其次只有假設心血管病風險高於推薦治療閾值時,該個體才需要測量膽固醇,並進行實際心血管病風險分析。<br>英国健康调查和中国营养与健康调查是本次研究的合适数据。我們首先探索最優的假設膽固醇值,尋找到最後膽固醇值之後,我們將繼續測試我們的新型膽固醇篩查模型,在不同的治療閾值下,表現是否穩定。我們以靈敏度,特異度和徐篩查人群為指標,比較我們模型與全民篩查模型和英國NICE 選擇篩查模型相比較。之後我們估算在中英人群中應用該篩查模型,所需耗費的成本和可預防心血管事件數。<br>结果:與全名篩查模型相比,我們的模型靈敏度相若但可以節省80%左右的篩查費用。模型的靈敏度主要取決於所採用的假設膽固醇值,與所用風險預測方程,治療閾值和人群心血管風險分佈無關。當以均數加2 倍標準差作為假設膽固醇值時,靈敏度可達到97.5%左右,特異度可以達到90%左右,符合預期。模型應用於中國人群得到的結果類似。值得註意的是,在中國人群中,即使不測量膽固

Resumen
A total of 146 Chinese patients with various degrees of hyperlipidaemia and high cardiovascular risk, suitable for treatment with rosuvastatin 10 mg daily and in whom it was possible to obtain baseline lipid profiles measured on no lipid lowering drug, were enrolled in to the study. The drug compliance was assessed by personal interview and 9 patients were excluded from the efficacy analysis because they stated their compliance was less than 80%. From the remaining 137 subjects, 62 had a clinical diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolaemia. Data for dietary intake were available in 121 of the

Resumen
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)<br>Obesity increases cardiovascular disease risk and is associated with factors of the “metabolic syndrome” (MetS), a disorder including hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and/or impaired glucose tolerance. Expanding adipose and subsequent inflammation is implicated in vascular dysfunction in MetS. Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) surrounds virtually every artery and is capable of releasing factors that influence vascular reactivity, but the effects of PVAT in the coronary circulation are unknown. Accordingly, the goal of this inves
