The European Consensus Conference has classified persons with hyperlipidemia into 5 groups on the basis of cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Plasma cholesterol concentration alone is not sufficient for the assessment of myocardial infarction risk; other risk factors must be considered for a more

In the new European clinical guidelines on dyslipidemias, screening of the risk for cardiovascular diseace is recommended by using lipid assays for all patients who are at high risk due to their clinical characteristics, and for men over 40 years of age and women of over 50 years of age. The

Since the introduction of fenofibrate to European clinical practice in 1975, some 6.5 million patient-years of experience in the treatment of hyperlipidemia have been accumulated. A review of results of clinical trials shows fenofibrate to have a broad spectrum of lipid-lowering activity, reducing

BACKGROUND Insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and abnormal nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) metabolism are features of the 'metabolic syndrome', but the mechanisms of these relationships are uncertain. METHODS We studied associations between insulin resistance and lipoprotein concentrations by

In the spring of 1986, the authors studied the relation between body mass index and anthropometric indicators of fat distribution to cardiovascular risk factors (serum lipids and blood pressure) in approximately 450 women aged 38 years randomly selected from population registers in five European

To investigate the "metabolic" syndrome in different European populations, samples of 38-year-old healthy men were randomly selected from six centers: Gothenburg (Sweden), Warsaw (Poland), Deinze (Belgium), Verona (Italy), Lumiar (Portugal), and Ede (The Netherlands). In total, 515 men were studied.

Digestive system functionality of fish larvae relies on the onset of genetically pre-programmed and extrinsically influenced digestive functions. This study explored how algal supplementation (green-water) until 14 days post hatch (dph) and the ingestion of food [enriched rotifer (Brachionus

OBJECTIVE To measure the prevalence of low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol (men < 1.03 mmol/l; women < 1.29 mmol/l) in European Type 2 diabetic patients receiving treatment for dyslipidaemia. METHODS The pan-European Survey of HDL-cholesterol measured lipids and other cardiovascular risk

The European Atherosclerosis Research Study was based on the comparison of offspring having a paternal history of premature myocardial infarction with age- and sex-matched control subjects. Case (n = 635) and control (n = 1259) subjects aged 18 through 26 years were recruited from 14 universities of

High serum levels of triglycerides have been found associated with increased risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Cross cultural comparisons between populations with different cardiovascular mortality do not demonstrate significant differences in serum triglycerides. Lipoprotein analysis

Samples of 38-year-old women were randomly selected from five European centers: Ede (The Netherlands), Warsaw (Poland), Gothenburg (Sweden), Verona (northern Italy), and Afragola (Naples-southern Italy). In total, 452 healthy women were studied. Anthropometric measurements were taken by one operator

A study on 512 38-year-old European men selected from 6 different towns was conducted. There were significant differences between the centers in averages of anthropometric variables (except for thigh circumference), serum lipids (except for LDL-cholesterol), and blood pressure. In the pooled

The European Consensus on Primary Prevention of Coronary Heart Disease has recommended that providing care for individuals at particular risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) requires case finding through medical examinations in primary care, hospital and employment health examination settings.

The aim of our research was to investigate the contents of lipids and fat-soluble vitamins in blood plasma of aboriginal adolescents of Russian European North (komi, n=104). It was established that there are specific Lipemic index at aboriginal adolescents: low level of the general cholesterol,
