Persea americana fruit has been reported to possess anti-diabetic properties. Therefore, this study assessed the lipid profile and likely cardio-protective effects of hydroethanolic extracts of P. americana fruits in alloxan-induced diabetic Wistar rats. Thirty-five male rats (150 ± 30 g) were divided into 5 groups (n = 7) and treated orally as follows;groups I-II were normal animals treated with distilled water (0.3 ml/day) and P. americana (300 mg/kg) only respectively. Animals in groups III-V were made diabetic using alloxan monohydrate (100 mg/kg i.p.) and treated orally with distilled water (0.3 ml/day), P. americana (300 mg/kg) and glibenclamide (5 mg/kg) respectively for 21 days. Fasting blood glucose level was monitored prior to, after induction of diabetes mellitus, and on day 21 post-treatment, respectively. Thereafter, retro-orbital blood samples were collected after anaesthesia and analysed for insulin, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL) levels, apolipoproteins A1 and B, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase activities, reduced glutathione (GSH), Vitamin C and malondialdehyde levels, respectively. VLDL, atherogenic index (AI) and ApoB/A1 ratio were estimated mathematically. Pancreatic and cardiac structures were also investigated using Haematoxylin and Eosin stains. Treatment with P. ameriacana extracts reduced (p P. americana treated diabetic group. The hydro-ethanol fruit extract of Persea americana attenuates diabetes induced dyslipidaemia and reduces the susceptibility to cardiac impairment in experimental diabetes mellitus.展开更多

This is a case-control study aimed to assess the role of hyperhomocysteinemia in obesity and its associated illnesses, including hypertension, dyslipidemia, and hyperglycemia in Gezira state, Sudan. Two hundred and eleven participants were included in the study, 140 were obese (117 females and 23 males) and 71 were normal weight control, the obese median age was 49.49 ± 12.2 years. The control group consisted of 71 individuals with an average age of 45.78 ± 17.67 years. Among those who were already known to be obese, 67 (47.9%) reported having type II diabetes mellitus, 71 (50.7%) reported having hypertension, and 35 (25%) were obese without having either diabetes or hypertension. Three mls of venous blood from each participant were collected in the morning after a 12 h overnight fasting in Lithium heparin containers then the plasma was separated and stored at -80°C for analysis. Serum Hcy and lipid profile were measured using the enzymatic method by Cobas C 411 analyzer. In comparison to obese non-hypertensive, the results showed that obese hypertensive with Hcy levels > 15 mol/L had a considerably increased risk (OR 1.12). When Hcy levels > 15 mol/L were compared to obese diabetics and obese non-diabetics, insignificant difference was shown (P: 0.345). Males had a higher likelihood of having hyperhomocysteinemia than females did (OR 1.2). Homocysteine, cholesterol triglyceride, LDL, and HDL mean values were compared between case and control groups using the independent sample t-test, and the results revealed statistically significant (P: <0.05). Relationships between hyperhomocysteinaemia and cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, and HDL in the group of obese individuals were not statistically significant (P: 0.574, 0.265, 0.748, and 0.14), respectively. Obesity and Hcyconcentrations were shown to be substantially correlated. However, there was no statistically significant association between baseline plasma Hcy levels and hyperglycemia, hypertension, or dyslipidemia.展开更多

Even though several lipid parameters are used, currently apolipoprotein B (apoB) is considered as the best predictor of CVD. Thus this study was carried out to find out the association between conventional lipid parameters and apoB in apparently healthy subjects. A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in 170 apparently healthy volunteers who were not diagnosed with dyslipidaemia. After 12 hours overnight fast venous blood was obtained and Total cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG), High density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were measured by enzymatic kit method. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was calculated by Friedewald formula and apoB was analyzed by immune turbid metry using a Konelab<sup>®</sup> auto analyzer. Among the participants, majority (63.5%) were females. The mean value of apoB concentration of the population was 103 ± 42 mg/dL which was similar and not significantly different between the genders (Males, 102 ± 37 mg/dL and Females, 104 ± 45 mg/dL). All lipid parameters showed a positive correlation with apoB concentration whereas HDL-C had a negative correlation (r = -0.165). HDL-C significantly (p < 0.05) decreased with increase in apoB concentration while LDL-C, TC/HDL-C and non-HDL-C significantly (p < 0.05) increased with an increase in apoB concentration. Present study suggests that serum apoB has better correlations and associations with the parameters that are used in conventional lipid profile and with markers recommended for diagnosing dyslipidaemia. Hence apoB could be used as a single marker for screening dyslipidaemia in apparently healthy people.展开更多

A case-control study involving 72 T2D patients and 75 non-diabetic (ND) patients (control) ofIgbo ethnicity was conducted. Demographic and anthropometric data were obtained followed by blood collection for the determination of fasting blood sugar (FBS), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL). Obesity based on waist circumference (WC) was significantly higher (p 〈 0.001) in T2D patients compared to their non-diabetic counterparts. Similarly, TC, TG and LDL levels were significantly (p 〈 0.001) higher in T2D patients while HDL was significantly lower (p 〈 0.001) in T2D patients compared to the control. The proportion of dyslipidaemia characterized by high TC, high TG, high LDL and low HDL was significantly higher (p 〈 0.001) in T2D patients. BMI correlated positively (p 〈 0.05) with WC, TC, and LDL while FBS correlated positively (p 〈 0.05) with TG but negatively with HDL. In conclusion, dyslipidaemia characterised by hypercholesterolaemia, hypertriglyceridaemia, elevated LDL and reduced HDL, as well as obesity were associated with T2D and correlated with FBS in this population.展开更多

However, the causal dynamics between MDD and dyslipidaemia remain elusive.Aims To comprehensively disentangle the genetic causality between MDD and various phenotypes of blood lipids, thereby facilitating the advancement of management strategies for these conditions.Methods We conducted a two-sample univariable Mendelian randomisation (MR) analysis using different models, including the inverse variance weighted (IVW) method and causal analysis using the summary effect (CAUSE) estimates, as well as a multivariable MR analysis. This analysis used summary statistics from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of MDD and five lipid traits: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol and triglycerides (TG), encompassing 5 237 893 individuals of European and East Asian ancestries. For MDD, a total of 598 701 individuals were included, with 500 199 individuals of European ancestry (Ncase=170 756, Ncontrol=329 443) and 98 502 of East Asian ancestry (Ncase=12 588, Ncontrol=85 914). Lipid data were collected from 4 639 192 individuals through the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium (European, N=4 096 085;East Asian, N=543 107). Next, we used the two-step MR to explore the mediating factors between MDD and TG, and the risk factors affecting TG through MDD. Finally, we conducted a GWAS meta-analysis and enrichment analysis.Results In univariable MR, we observed a negative causal effect of low-density lipoprotein on MDD in both European populations (IVW: odds ratio (OR): 0.972, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.947 to 0.998, p=0.037) and East Asian populations (IVW: OR: 0.928, 95% CI 0.864 to 0.997, p=0.042). Additionally, we identified a bidirectional causal relationship between TG and MDD, with TG having a causal effect on MDD (IVW: OR: 1.052, 95% CI 1.020 to 1.085, p=0.001) and MDD having a causal effect on TG (IVW: OR: 1.075, 95% CI 1.047 to 1.104, p<0.001). Multivariable MR analysis further supported the role of TG in MDD (OR: 1.205, 95% CI 1.034 to 1.405, p=0.017). CAUSE estimates indicated that the causal model of MDD on TG provided a better fit than the sharing model (p=0.003), while the association of TG on MDD was more likely due to horizontal correlated pleiotropy than causality. Mediation analyses revealed that waist-hip ratio (WHR) mediated 69% of the total causal effect of MDD on TG, while other identified risk factors exhibited lower mediating proportions either mediated through MDD (≤17%) or originating from MDD (≤29%). The GWAS meta-analysis highlighted potential pathways related to lipid processes and nucleosome assembling, with significant cell types identified in brain regions and liver tissues.Conclusions The findings indicate that genetic proxies of MDD are associated with elevated levels of TG, with WHR serving as a clinical indicator of the association. This suggests that interventions targeting WHR may be effective in reducing TG levels in patients with MDD.展开更多

The two groups were matched by gender, age and diabetes duration. Lipid and lipoprotein profile were measured. Serum level and control of lipids were assessed and classified according to American Diabetes Association (ADA) guidelines and an intensified low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) target recommended in Chinese dyslipidaemia control criteria. Results Diabetic patients suffering stroke displayed not only poorly-controlled lipid and lipoprotein profiles, including the significantly lower proportion of patients achieving intensified LDL-C target of 〈2.07 mmol/L (80 mg/dl), and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) target (14.4% vs 21.0%, P=0.005; 45.8% vs 51.9%, P=0.048 respectively), but also less adherence to therapy prescribed for dyslipidaemia (30.8% vs 41.0%, P=0.001), when compared with diabetic patients without stroke. For the diabetic women with stroke, situation of dyslipidaemia was worse, with significantly lower serum level of HDL-C and apoA1, higher LDL-C level and higher ratio of apoB/apoA1 when compared with diabetic counterparts without stroke. Conclusions Many diabetic patients with ischemic stroke remain uncontrolled for dyslipidaemia. Intensified LDL-C and overall lipid lowering clinical goals are potential precautions taken against ischemic stroke among diabetic patients in China.展开更多

文摘Diabetes-induced dyslipidaemia has been associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis and coronary heart diseases. Persea americana fruit has been reported to possess anti-diabetic properties. Therefore, this study assessed the lipid profile and likely cardio-protective effects of hydroethanolic extracts of P. americana fruits in alloxan-induced diabetic Wistar rats. Thirty-five male rats (150 ± 30 g) were divided into 5 groups (n = 7) and treated orally as follows;groups I-II were normal animals treated with distilled water (0.3 ml/day) and P. americana (300 mg/kg) only respectively. Animals in groups III-V were made diabetic using alloxan monohydrate (100 mg/kg i.p.) and treated orally with distilled water (0.3 ml/day), P. americana (300 mg/kg) and glibenclamide (5 mg/kg) respectively for 21 days. Fasting blood glucose level was monitored prior to, after induction of diabetes mellitus, and on day 21 post-treatment, respectively. Thereafter, retro-orbital blood samples were collected after anaesthesia and analysed for insulin, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL) levels, apolipoproteins A1 and B, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase activities, reduced glutathione (GSH), Vitamin C and malondialdehyde levels, respectively. VLDL, atherogenic index (AI) and ApoB/A1 ratio were estimated mathematically. Pancreatic and cardiac structures were also investigated using Haematoxylin and Eosin stains. Treatment with P. ameriacana extracts reduced (p P. americana treated diabetic group. The hydro-ethanol fruit extract of Persea americana attenuates diabetes induced dyslipidaemia and reduces the susceptibility to cardiac impairment in experimental diabetes mellitus.

After 12 hours overnight fast venous blood was obtained and Total cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG), High density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were measured by enzymatic kit method. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was calculated by Friedewald formula and apoB was analyzed by immune turbid metry using a Konelab<sup>®</sup> auto analyzer. Among the participants, majority (63.5%) were females. The mean value of apoB concentration of the population was 103 ± 42 mg/dL which was similar and not significantly different between the genders (Males, 102 ± 37 mg/dL and Females, 104 ± 45 mg/dL). All lipid parameters showed a positive correlation with apoB concentration whereas HDL-C had a negative correlation (r = -0.165). HDL-C significantly (p < 0.05) decreased with increase in apoB concentration while LDL-C, TC/HDL-C and non-HDL-C significantly (p < 0.05) increased with an increase in apoB concentration.

文摘Obesity is known to be a major risk factor of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and responsible for most lipid abnormalities associated with the disease but limited data on such association are available for diabetic patients of Igbo ethnicity in the South East region of Nigeria. A case-control study involving 72 T2D patients and 75 non-diabetic (ND) patients (control) ofIgbo ethnicity was conducted. Demographic and anthropometric data were obtained followed by blood collection for the determination of fasting blood sugar (FBS), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL). Obesity based on waist circumference (WC) was significantly higher (p 〈 0.001) in T2D patients compared to their non-diabetic counterparts. Similarly, TC, TG and LDL levels were significantly (p 〈 0.001) higher in T2D patients while HDL was significantly lower (p 〈 0.001) in T2D patients compared to the control. The proportion of dyslipidaemia characterized by high TC, high TG, high LDL and low HDL was significantly higher (p 〈 0.001) in T2D patients. BMI correlated positively (p 〈 0.05) with WC, TC, and LDL while FBS correlated positively (p 〈 0.05) with TG but negatively with HDL. In conclusion, dyslipidaemia characterised by hypercholesterolaemia, hypertriglyceridaemia, elevated LDL and reduced HDL, as well as obesity were associated with T2D and correlated with FBS in this population.

The two groups were matched by gender, age and diabetes duration. Lipid and lipoprotein profile were measured. Serum level and control of lipids were assessed and classified according to American Diabetes Association (ADA) guidelines and an intensified low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) target recommended in Chinese dyslipidaemia control criteria. Results Diabetic patients suffering stroke displayed not only poorly-controlled lipid and lipoprotein profiles, including the significantly lower proportion of patients achieving intensified LDL-C target of 〈2.07 mmol/L (80 mg/dl), and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) target (14.4% vs 21.0%, P=0.005; 45.8% vs 51.9%, P=0.048 respectively), but also less adherence to therapy prescribed for dyslipidaemia (30.8% vs 41.0%, P=0.001), when compared with diabetic patients without stroke. For the diabetic women with stroke, situation of dyslipidaemia was worse, with significantly lower serum level of HDL-C and apoA1, higher LDL-C level and higher ratio of apoB/apoA1 when compared with diabetic counterparts without stroke. Conclusions Many diabetic patients with ischemic stroke remain uncontrolled for dyslipidaemia. Intensified LDL-C and overall lipid lowering clinical goals are potential precautions taken against ischemic stroke among diabetic patients in China.
文摘目的了解我国中老年高血糖、血脂异常、高血压人群健康体检服务利用现状并分析其影响因素,为优化“三高共管”策略和卫生服务体系改革提供依据。方法依托中国健康与养老追踪调查(China health and retirement longitudinal study,CHARLS)于2020年开展的第五轮调查数据,共筛选中老年高血糖、血脂异常、高血压患者8227人作为研究对象,基于安德森模型框架,采用χ2检验和多因素Logistic回归分析影响我国中老年高血糖、血脂异常、高血压人群健康体检服务利用的主要因素。结果研究对象体检服务利用率为54.13%。多因素Logistic回归分析结果显示年龄(≥65岁:OR=2.024,95%CI=1.831~2.236,P<0.001)、受教育程度(高中及以上:OR=1.303,95%CI=1.123~1.511,P<0.001)、个人收入(有:OR=1.440,95%CI=1.285~1.614,P<0.001)、养老保险类别(企业职工养老保险:OR=0.655,95%CI=0.516~0.833,P<0.001;城镇居民/城乡居民养老保险:OR=0.633,95%CI=0.493~0.813,P<0.001;新型农村居民社会养老保险:OR=0.602,95%CI=0.466~0.778,P<0.001;其他养老保险:OR=0.549,95%CI=0.390~0.772,P<0.001;无养老保险:OR=0.473,95%CI=0.361~0.619,P<0.001)、医保类别(新农合、其他医保、无医保:OR=0.834,95%CI=0.726~0.959,P=0.011)、抑郁症状(是:OR=0.885,95%CI=0.804~0.975,P=0.014)、慢性病患病数量(2种:OR=1.158,95%CI=1.004~1.337,P=0.045;3种:OR=1.273,95%CI=1.099~1.475,P=0.001;≥4种:OR=1.282,95%CI=1.117~1.472,P<0.001)、社交情况(有:OR=1.396,95%CI=1.274~1.530,P<0.001)、住院服务利用(利用/需求:OR=1.207,95%CI:1.080~1.348,P<0.001)、饮酒(是:OR=1.127,95%CI=1.019~1.246,P=0.020)及吸烟(是:OR=0.761,95%CI=0.681~0.849,P<0.001)是影响我国中老年高血糖、血脂异常、高血压人群健康体检服务利用的主要因素。结论我国中老年高血糖、血脂异常、高血压人群体检服务利用率有待提高,建议将45~64岁人群纳入弹性体检补贴范围,推动体检费用医保报销,减轻贫困人群经费负担;深化医防融合机制,创新技术赋能,简化体检流程;加强慢性病防控政策及健康宣教,提升居民健康素养水平和健康管理依从性;针对低收入、低教育水平、有抑郁症状等人群,制定定向干预方案,实现慢性病防控关口前移,促进健康老龄化。
