AIM:To investigate the effects of Lactobacillus plantarum(L.plantarum) CAI6 and L.plantarum SC4 on hyperlipidemic mice.METHODS:Male Kunming mice were fed a highcholesterol diet for 28 d to construct hyperlipidemic models.Hyperlipidemic mice and normal mice were assigned to 3 groups which were separately treated with L.plantarum CAI6,L.plantarum SC4,and physiological saline through oral gavage for 28 d.Total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) levels were measured by commercially available enzyme kits.FACS Calibur flow cytometry was used to examine hepatic and renal nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2) expression.The morphology of livers was checked by hematoxylin and eosin staining and optical microscope observation.RESULTS:Compared with normal mice,hyperlipidemic mice possessed significantly higher TC(3.50 ± 0.43 vs 2.89 ± 0.36,P < 0.01),TG(1.76 ± 0.07 vs 1.10 ± 0.16,P < 0.01),and LDL-C(1.72 ± 0.20 vs 0.82 ± 0.10,P < 0.01) levels,resulting in an increase of atherogenic index(AI)(2.34 ± 1.60 vs 0.93 ± 0.55,P < 0.05) and LDL-C/HDL-C ratio(1.43 ± 0.12 vs 0.51 ± 0.16,P < 0.05).After treatment with L.plantarum CAI6/L.plantarum SC4,TG(1.43 ± 0.27/1.54 ± 0.10 vs 1.76 ± 0.07,P < 0.01/P < 0.05) and LDL-C(1.42 ± 0.07/1.47 ± 0.12 vs 1.72 ± 0.20,P < 0.01/P < 0.01) in hyperlipidemic mice significantly decreased.In addition,TC,HDL-C,AI,and LDL-C/HDL-C ratio were all positively changed.Meanwhile,the treatment markedly alleviated hepatic steatosis and significantly stimulated Nrf2 expression(73.79 ± 0.80/72.96 ± 1.22 vs 54.94 ± 1.84,P < 0.01/P < 0.01) in hepatocytes of hyperlipidemic mice.CONCLUSION:L.plantarum CAI6 and L.plantarum SC4 may protect against cardiovascular disease by lipid metabolism regulation and Nrf2-induced antioxidative defense in hyperlipidemic mice. 相似文献

Objectives To evaluate the association of coronary artery endothelial function and plasma levels of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Methods We investigated 90 participants from our institution between October 2007 to March 2010: non-DM (n = 60) and DM (n = 30). As an indicator of coronary endothelial dysfunction, we used non-invasive Doppler echocardiography to quantify coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) in the distal part of the left descending artery after rest and after intravenous adenosine administration. Results Plasma level of LDL-C was significantly higher in patients with DM than in non-DM (3.21±0.64 vs. 2.86±0.72 mmo/L, P < 0.05), but HDL-C level did not differ between the groups (1.01 ± 0.17 vs. 1.05 ± 0.19 mmo/L). Furthermore, the CFVR value was lower in DM patients than non-diabetics (2.45 ± 0.62 vs. 2.98 ± 0.68, P < 0.001). Plasma levels of LDL-C were negatively correlated with CFVR in all subjects (r = -0.35, P < 0.001; 95% confidence interval (CI): -0.52 - -0.15) and in the non-DM (r = -0.29, P < 0.05; 95% CI:-0.51 - -0.05), with an even stronger negative correlation in the DM group (r = -0.42, P < 0.05; 95% CI:-0.68 - -0.06). Age (β = 0.019, s = 0.007, sβ = -0435, 95% CI: -0.033 - -0.055, P = 0.008), LDL-C (β = -0.217, s = 0.105,sβ= -0.282, 95% CI: -0.428 - -0.005, P = 0.045) remained independently correlated with CFVR in the DM group. However, we found no correlation between HDL-C level and CFVR in any group. Conclusions Diabetes may contribute to coronary artery disease (CAD) by inducing dysfunction of the coronary artery endothelium. Increased LDL-C level may adversely impair coronary endothelial function in DM. HDL-C may lose its endothelial-protective effects, in part as a result of pathological conditions, especially under abnormal glucose metabolism. 相似文献

A higher ratio of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is associated with a greater risk of cardiovascular events in patients with coronary heart disease. However, the role of this lipid index during early-stage atherosclerosis has not yet been established. This study investigated relationships between LDL-C/HDL-C ratio and carotid plaque score as assessed by ultrasonography in 825 subjects from the general population (527 men, 298 women; mean age, 60.5 years). To identify factors strongly associated with plaque score, stepwise multiple regression analysis was performed using various clinical variables including conventional lipid indices. In both sexes, increased LDL-C/HDL-C ratio was associated with increased plaque score (men: β = 0.132, P = .001; women: β = 0.150, P = .012). This association was maintained in men with normal LDL-C level (<140 mg/dL). The highest quartile of LDL-C/HDL-C ratio (>2.9 in men, >2.6 in women) showed significantly increased plaque score even when adjusted by factors included in the final model of stepwise analysis (P = .007 in men, P = .033 in women). No association was seen between LDL-C and plaque score in the multivariate-adjusted model. These findings indicate that increased LDL-C/HDL-C ratio may also be associated with initiation of atherosclerosis. Assessment of this lipid ratio may thus facilitate early management of atherosclerotic risks better rather than assessment of LDL-C alone. 相似文献

Alterations in plasma lipid levels can influence the composition, content, and distribution of plasma lipoprotein subclasses that affect atherosclerosis risk. This study evaluated the relationship between plasma total cholesterol (TC)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio, triglyceride (TG)/HDL-C ratio, and HDL subclass distribution. The apolipoprotein A-I contents of plasma HDL subclasses were quantitated by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis coupled with immunodetection in 442 Chinese subjects. The particle size of HDL shifted toward smaller size with the elevation of TC/HDL-C and TG/HDL-C ratios. The ratio of large-sized HDL(2b) to small-sized prebeta(1)-HDL (HDL(2b)/prebeta(1)-HDL) was about 4.7 in the subjects with TC/HDL-C of 3.3 or lower and TG/HDL-C of 2.5 or lower, whereas it was only approximately 1.1 in subjects with TC/HDL-C greater than 6 and TG/HDL-C greater than 5. Pearson correlation analysis revealed that the TC/HDL-C ratio was positively correlated with prebeta(1)-HDL and HDL(3a) but negatively correlated with HDL(2a) and HDL(2b), whereas the TC/HDL-C ratio was only inversely correlated with HDL(2b). The TC/HDL-C and TG/HDL-C ratios together may be a good indicator of HDL subclass distribution. When these 2 ratios increased simultaneously, the trend toward smaller HDL size was obvious, which, in turn, indicated that the maturation of HDL might be impeded and the reverse cholesterol transport might be weakened. In addition, the TG/HDL-C ratio might be a more powerful factor to influence the distribution of HDL subclasses. 相似文献

Diabetes mellitus is recognized an independent risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD) and mortality. Clinical trials have shown that statins significantly reduce cardiovascular events in diabetic patients. However, residual cardiovascular risk persists despite the achievement of target low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels with statin. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is an established coronary risk factor that is independent of LDL-C levels. We evaluated the impact of HDL-C on long-term mortality in diabetic patients with stable CAD who achieved optimal LDL-C. We enrolled 438 consecutive diabetic patients who were scheduled for percutaneous coronary intervention between 2004 and 2007 at our institution. We identified 165 patients who achieved target LDL-C <100 mg/dl. Patients were stratified into two groups according to HDL-C levels (low HDL-C group, baseline HDL-C <40 mg/dl; high HDL-C group, ≥40 mg/dl). Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) that included all-cause death, acute coronary syndrome, and target lesion revascularization were evaluated between the two groups. The median follow-up period was 946 days. The rate of MACE was significantly higher in diabetic patients with low-HDL-C who achieved optimal LDL-C (6.9 vs 17.9 %, log-rank P = 0.030). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that HDL-C is significantly associated with clinical outcomes (adjusted hazard ratio for MACE 1.33, 95 % confidence interval 1.01–1.75, P = 0.042). Low HDL-C is a residual risk factor that is significantly associated with long-term clinical outcomes among diabetic patients with stable CAD who achieve optimal LDL-C levels. 相似文献

Background
Current guidelines for managing dyslipidemia qualify patients for treatment based on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and other risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD). However, when LDL-C is the sole lipid criterion for initiating therapy, patients with levels below the treatment initiation threshold who are at high risk because of low levels (<40 mg/dL) of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) might not be identified. Twenty percent of male patients with CHD in the United States fall into this category. The total cholesterol/HDL-C (TC/HDL-C) ratio predicts CHD risk regardless of the absolute LDL-C and HDL-C.Methods
We compared guidelines based on TC/HDL-C and LDL-C with those recommended by the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III). Both sets of guidelines were applied to 9837 adults (>20 years of age) in the Turkish Heart Study, which has shown that 75% of men and 50% of women in Turkey have HDL-C <40 mg/dL.Results
ATP III guidelines identified 14% of Turkish adults, 20 years or older, as candidates for lifestyle treatment only and an additional 18% for drug treatment. In conjunction with ATP III LDL-C thresholds, the TC/HDL-C ratio (>3.5, patients with CHD; ≥6.0, 2+ risk factors, ≥7.0, 0 to 1 risk factor) assigned lifestyle therapy alone to 18% and drug treatment to an additional 36%. Among primary prevention subjects at high risk because of age (men ≥45 years; women ≥55 years), both sets of guidelines prescribed lifestyle therapy for only 5%; however, drug treatment was recommended for an additional 13% by ATP III guidelines and an additional 18% by TC/HDL-C and LDL-C.Conclusions
In populations at risk for CHD caused by low HDL-C, qualification of subjects for treatment based on either the TC/HDL-C ratio or LDL-C thresholds identifies more high-risk subjects for treatment than LDL-C threshold values alone, and use of the ratio, instead of risk tables, simplifies the approach for physicians. 相似文献7.
The positive association between the ratio of serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) to serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and cardiovascular events has recently been receiving much attention. However, the association between the severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and this ratio has not yet been investigated. Accordingly, we sought to clarify this association and the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy on the ratio. We performed polysomnography and LDL-C/HDL-C measurements in 215 patients who were suspected of having OSA. Furthermore, LDL-C/HDL-C was again evaluated 6 months after polysomnography in 30 OSA patients for whom CPAP therapy was initiated and continued, and in 11 age- and sex-matched OSA patients for whom the therapy could not be initiated. The LDL-C/HDL-C correlated positively with apnea-hypopnea index (ρ = 0.28, P < .001) and negatively with the lowest arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation (ρ = -0.30, P < .001). Multivariate regression analysis revealed that ln apnea-hypopnea index (or ln lowest arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation) was independently associated with LDL-C/HDL-C. The LDL-C/HDL-C decreased after 6 months in the CPAP group (2.29 ± 0.67 to 2.11 ± 0.74, P = .02), whereas it did not change in the non-CPAP group (2.65 ± 0.82 to 2.62 ± 0.66, P = .81). The severity of OSA was independently associated with LDL-C/HDL-C, and LDL-C/HDL-C was significantly reduced at 6 months after CPAP therapy. These findings suggest that LDL-C/HDL-C increases in proportion to the severity of OSA, which may contribute partly to an increased risk for cardiovascular events in OSA patients. 相似文献

Background There is a paucity of data about the best lipid ratio predicting the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with diabetes mellitus. We determined the relationship between five conventional lipid ratios and the extent of coronary artery lesions in Chinese Type 2 diabetics with stable angina pectoris (SAP). Methods A prospective cohort study within 373 Type 2 diabetic patients diagnosed with stable CAD by coronary angiography was performed. All patients were classified into three groups according to the tertiles of Gensini scores (GS, low group < 8 points n = 143; intermediate group 8–28 points, n = 109; high group > 28 points, n = 121). Association between the ratios of apolipoprotein (apo) B and apoA-1, total cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (TC/HDL-C), triglycerides and HDL-C (TG/HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol and HDL-C (LDL-C/HDL-C), Non-HDL-C/HDL-C and GS were evaluated using the receivers operating characteristic (ROC) curves and multivariate logistic regression models. Results The ratio of apoB/apoA-1, TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C, and Non-HDL-C/HDL-C were correlated with Gensini scores. Area under the ROC curves for predicting high Gensini scores in the ratios of apoB/apoA-1, TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C and Non-HDL-C/HDL-C were 0.62, 0.60, 0.59 and 0.60, respectively (P < 0.005 for all). According to multivariate logistic regression analysis after adjusted with demographic characteristic and other lipid parameters, the ratio of apoB/apoA-1 is qualified as an independent discriminator for the severity of CAD. However, after further adjusting different baseline variables, such as left ventricular ejective fraction, hemoglobin A1c, leukocytes count and serum creatinine, none of the above lipid ratios remained. Conclusion Compared with other lipid parameters, the ratio of apoB/apoA-1 appears to be more significantly correlated with the extent of coronary artery lesions in Chinese diabetics, but it was not an independent predictor in these settings. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Total cholesterol (TC)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)/HDL-C ratios are used to predict ischemic heart disease risk. There is, however, no consensus on which of these 2 indices is superior. The objective of the present study was to present evidence that the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio may underestimate ischemic heart disease risk in overweight hyperinsulinemic patients with high triglyceride (TG)-low HDL-C dyslipidemia. METHODS: A total of 2103 middle-aged men in whom measurements of the metabolic profile were performed in the fasting state were recruited from 7 suburbs of the Quebec metropolitan area. RESULTS: The relationship of LDL-C/HDL-C to TC/HDL-C ratios was examined among men in the Quebec Cardiovascular Study classified into tertiles of fasting TG levels. For any given LDL-C/HDL-C ratio, the TC/HDL-C ratio was higher among men in the top TG tertile (>168 mg/dL [>1.9 mmol/L]) than in men in the first and second TG tertiles. Adjustment of the TC/HDL-C ratio for LDL-C/HDL-C by covariance analysis generated significant differences in average TC/HDL-C ratios among TG tertiles (P<.001). Greater differences in features of the insulin resistance syndrome (insulinemia, apolipoprotein B, and LDL size) were noted across tertiles of the TC/HDL-C ratio than tertiles of the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio. CONCLUSION: Variation in the TC/HDL-C ratio may be associated with more substantial alterations in metabolic indices predictive of ischemic heart disease risk and related to the insulin resistance syndrome than variation in the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio. 相似文献

Background
Historically, sub-Saharan Africa has reported low levels of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). However as these populations undergo epidemiological transition, this may change.Methods
This was an observational cohort study performed at Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital in Soweto, South Africa. As part of the Heart of Soweto study, a clinical registry captured detailed clinical data on all de novo cases of structural and functional heart disease presenting to the Cardiology unit during the period 2006 to 2008. We examined fasting lipid profiles in 2 182 patients (of 5 328 total cases) according to self-reported ethnicity. The study cohort comprised 1 823 patients of African descent (61% female, aged 56 ± 16 years), 142 white Europeans (36% female, aged 57 ± 13 years), 133 Indians (51% female, aged 59 ± 12 years) and 87 of mixed ancestry (40% female, aged 56 ± 12 years).Results
Consistent with different patterns in heart disease aetiology, there were clear differences in total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglycerides across ethnicities (p < 0.001): patients of African descent had the lowest TC and LDL-C levels and Indians the highest. However, there were no significant differences in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels between ethnicities (p = 0.20). Adjusting for age, gender and body mass index, patients of African descent were significantly less likely to record a TC of > 4.5 mmol/l (OR 0.33, 95% CI: 0.25–0.41) compared to all ethnic groups (all p < 0.001).Conclusions
These data confirm important blood lipid differentials according to ethnicity in patients diagnosed with heart disease in Soweto, South Africa. Such disparities in CVD risk factors may justify the use of specialised prevention and management protocols. 相似文献11.

ObjectiveTo study the correlation of lipid ratios and individual lipid indexes of patients with type 2 diabetes with glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c).MethodsSamples were collected from 128 type 2 diabetic patients (aged 19–90 years; male 72, female 56). The sera were analyzed for HbA1c, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). According to the HbA1c level, the patients were divided into three groups, group A (HbA1c <7%, n=31), group B (7%?HbA1c?10%, n=48), and group C (HbA1c >10%, n=49). The correlation of HbA1c with lipid ratios &; individual lipid indexes were analyzed.ResultsWith the increased level of HbA1c, LDL-C had a significantly increasing trend (P<0.05); whereas TC went up with the increased HbA1c, without any significant differences between three groups. There was no significant correlation between HbA1c and TG or HDL-C. With the increased level of HbA1c, TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C ratios were gradually increased, with significant differences among groups (P<0.05). The lipid ratios, especially LDL-C/HDL-C ratio was more susceptible to impaired lipid metabolism in T2DM patients than individual lipid.ConclusionsLDL-C/HDL-C ratio is helpful in assessing and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease caused by impaired lipid metabolism in type 2 diabetic patients. 相似文献

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common complications of pregnancy and associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes of lipoprotein-associated phospholipaseA2 (Lp-PLA2) level and its correlation with biochemical indexes in patients with GDM.This observational cross-sectional study was performed among 52 GDM and 48 healthy pregnant women. Automatic biochemical analyzer was employed to test the biochemical indexes, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). The lipoprotein-associated phospholipaseA2 (Lp-PLA2) level was evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated.The levels of FPG, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, TG, TC and LDL-C were significantly increased while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level was significantly decreased in the GDM group when compared with those in the control group. Lp-PLA2 level in maternal blood in the GDM group was significantly higher than that in the control group (199.125 ± 23.494 vs165.825 ± 15.576 ng/mL, P < .05) and logistic regression analysis further confirmed the association of Lp-PLA2 levels with GDM. Furthermore, Lp-PLA2 positively correlated with HOMA-IR, TC, and LDL-C.Our results confirmed the association of Lp-PLA2 with GDM. This broadens our knowledge on the pathophysiology of GDM and provides insights into the development of new targets for the prevention and treatment of GDM. 相似文献

The distribution of the ratios of plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) to total cholesterol (TC) and of HDL-C to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) are presented for 6900 white and 495 black examinees greater than 4 years old. Measurements were obtained during the visit 2 survey of the Lipid Research Clinics (LRC) Program Prevalence Study, and correspond to a 15% random sample of 60,502 participants screened during the LRC visit 1 survey. Age-specific means, medians, and selected percentiles are given by sex and by gonadal hormone use in white women. Apparent in these cross-sectional data was a consistent age-related decline in the ratio of HDL-C to TC for white male participants, from a mean of 0.360 in the age group 5 to 9 to a mean of 0.211 in the age group 50 to 54. Thereafter the mean ratio increased slightly. In white women not using gonadal hormones the age-related decline in the ratio was only evident starting at the age group 35 to 39, from which it declines from 0.329 to 0.258 in the age group 55 to 59. White women using gonadal hormones showed very minor age-related changes in the HDL-C/TC ratio, varying around a mean of 0.300. The number of blacks examined was low and thus the racial comparisons must be interpreted with caution. For each gender, age-related trends were similar in black and white study participants. Black men, however, had a higher percentage of TC carried as HDL-C than white men in all age groups examined. Black women had a higher percentage of TC in HDL-C than white women only below age 20; in the adult age range no appreciable differences were seen. Pearson correlation coefficients between the lipid, lipoprotein, and lipoprotein ratios are presented. The ratio HDL-C/TC correlated highly with the ratio HDL-C/LDL-C (greater than 0.92 for all groups) and the former may be a more conveniently determined surrogate for the latter. Although not exhaustive regarding the information it conveys about a lipid pattern, the ratio HDL-C/TC has the advantage of summarizing complex associations into a single numerical approximation. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of polypoid lesions of gallbladder (PLG) among the health examinees in the Shanghai region, China.METHODS: A total of 11 816 subjects who underwent health examinations in our hospital between August 2010 and February 2011 were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, there were 7174 men and 4642 women. PLG was diagnosed by the real-time ultrasonography. Those with the body mass index (BMI) ≥ 28 were considered to be obese. Blood biochemical indices were detected with the fully automatic biochemical analyzer and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was tested by the automated enzyme immunoassay. The correlations between the prevalence of PLG and age, sex, BMI, serum cholesterol (T-Cho), triglycerides (TG), blood sugar, HBsAg, high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), gallstone and fatty liver were investigated. After univariate analysis of 11 variables, stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the risk factors of PLG.RESULTS: There was a significant difference in sex, T-Cho, HBsAg, HDL-C, LDL-C and fatty liver between the PLG-positive group and the PLG-negative group (332/163 vs 6842/4479, P = 0.003; 22/473 vs 295/11 026, P =0.013; 92/403 vs 993/10 328, P = 0.001; 47/448 vs 332/10 989, P = 0.001; 32/463 vs 381/10 940, P = 0.001; 83/412 vs 3260/8061, P = 0.001). No significant difference was found in the age, BMI, TG, blood sugar and gallstone between the two groups (47.3 ± 26 vs 45.1 ± 33, P = 0.173; 59/436 vs 1097/10 224, P = 0.102; 52/443 vs 982/10 339, P = 0.158; 17/478 vs 295/11 026, P = 0.26; 24/471 vs 395/10 926, P = 0.109). Logistic regression analysis showed that the sex, HBsAg and HDL-C were independent risk factors for the development of PLG in a descending order of HDL-C > HBsAg > sex.CONCLUSION: In healthy people, the male gender, positive HBsAg, and low HDL-C confer higher risks of PLG development. 相似文献

Background: To evaluate distribution and prognostic value of total cholesterol and lipoprotein fractions in essential hypertension. Methods: In a prospective cohort study, 2649 initially untreated subjects with essential hypertension (aged 51, 46.5% women) were investigated at entry and followed for a mean of 5.6 years (range: 1-16). Results: At entry, subjects with total cholesterol (TC) ≥240 mg/dl (≥6.22 mmol/l) or high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (HDL-C) 6 were 47.7%. TC, HDL-C, LDL-C and triglycerides (TG) did not show any association with office or 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (BP). During follow-up there were 167 first cardiac events and 122 first cerebrovascular events. TC, HDL-C, LDL-C and TC/HDL-C ratio showed an association with cardiac events, but not with cerebrovascular events. TG did not show any association with cardiac or cerebrovascular events. After adjustment for age, sex, diabetes, smoking, left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and 24-h pulse pressure, the hazard ratio for cardiac events was 1.83 (95% CI 1.23-2.71) in association with a TC ≥6.22 mmol/l, 2.23 with a HDL-C 6.0 (95% CI 2.23-6.81). When forced in the same model, HDL-C and LDL-C showed an independent association with cardiac events. Conclusions: Abnormalities of TC and lipoproteins are common in essential hypertension. HDL-C and LDL-C independently predict the risk of cardiac, but not cerebrovascular, events. Their predictive value is independent of several confounding factors including LV hypertrophy and ambulatory BP. 相似文献

This paper aims to review the guidelines on the importance given to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) as a risk factor or as threshold and target level in the treatment of dyslipidemia. We developed a strategy with cholesterol-related key words to search for guidelines in the major databases. The Appraisal of Guidelines Research Evaluation (AGREE) instrument was used for the evaluation and inclusion of the guidelines. In total nine guidelines were selected. Almost all selected guidelines consider low HDL-C as a marker of an increased risk for coronary heart disease. However, only few guidelines use the level of HDL-C as a threshold or target level for the treatment of dyslipidemia. The guidelines provide only little information on the management of patients with treatment-induced low HDL-C. Instead of using total cholesterol (TC) or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) we consider the use of the ratios of TC to HDL-C or LDL-C to HDL-C as a threshold as well as a target for treatment. 相似文献

This study aimed to investigate the differential effects of hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) on lipid profiles and lipid ratios between patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and without CAD. The data of 872 CAD patients and 774 non-CAD controls were extracted from the information system of hospitalized patients. Serum homocysteine (Hcy), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TGs), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), apolipoprotein (Apo) AI, and ApoB concentrations were detected. HHcy was defined as a serum level of Hcy ≥ 15 μmol/L. The CAD patients had lower levels of HDL-C and ApoAI and higher levels of Hcy than the controls (P < .05). Serum TGs and HDL-C were negatively correlated with Hcy in controls. Serum HDL-C and ApoAI were negatively correlated with Hcy, and the ratios of TC/HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, LDL/HDL-C, and ApoB/ApoAI were positively correlated with Hcy in the CAD patients (P < .05). Although the trends for HHcy to decrease the lipid profiles were not different between the CAD and controls (Pinteraction > 0.05), CAD with HHcy had lower HDL-C and ApoAI levels than those of subjects with normal Hcy; controls with HHcy had lower TC, LDL-C, and ApoB levels than those of subjects with normal Hcy (P < .05). There were different HHcy trends affecting the ratios of TC/HDL-C and LDL/HDL-C between the CAD patients and controls (Pinteraction for TC/HDL-C = 0.025; Pinteraction for LDL/HDL-C = 0.033). CAD patients with HHcy had a higher ratio of TC/HDL-C (P = .022) and LDL/HDL-C (P = .045) than those of patients with normal Hcy, but in the controls, the subjects with HHcy exhibited a trend toward a decreased ratio of TC/HDL-C (P = .481) and LDL/HDL-C (P = .303). There were differential effects of HHcy on the lipid ratios between CAD and non-CAD patients. HHcy was related to higher ratios of TC/HDL-C and LDL/HDL-C in patients with CAD. 相似文献

OBJECTIVETo investigate the associations between the blood concentrations of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and the clinical features of haemorrhagic stroke.METHODSThis study analysed the data from patients with acute haemorrhagic stroke at a comprehensive stroke centre from 2013 to 2018. Patients were stratified into three groups according to their baseline LDL-C levels: < 70, 70 to < 100 and ≥ 100 mg/dL. We used multivariate logistic regression models to analyse the associations between LDL-C and the risks of having severe neurological deficits (National Institute Health Stroke Scale [NIHSS] scores ≥ 15) and unfavourable outcomes (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] scores>2) at discharge.RESULTSSix-hundred and six patients were analysed. Their median age was 58 years. Among the patients, 75 (12%) patients had LDL-C levels < 70 mg/dL, 194 (32%) patients had LDL-C levels between 70 to < 100 mg/dL and the other 337 (56%) patients had LDL-C levels ≥ 100 mg/dL. Patients with higher LDL-C levels were less likely to suffer severe neurological deficits (LDL-C: 70 to < 100 vs. < 70 mg/dL, adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 0.29, 95% CI: 0.15–0.57; LDL-C: ≥ 100 vs. < 70 mg/dL, adjusted OR = 0.27, 95% CI: 0.15–0.51) and to have unfavourable outcomes at discharge (LDL-C: 70 to < 100 vs. < 70 mg/dL, adjusted OR = 0.50, 95% CI: 0.29–0.87 and LDL-C: ≥ 100 vs. < 70 mg/dL, adjusted OR = 0.46, 95% CI: 0.28–0.78). CONCLUSIONSAn LDL-C level < 70 mg/dL was independently associated with severe neurological deficits of haemorrhagic stroke and may increase the risks of unfavourable outcomes at discharge.Hyperlipidaemia, especially increased levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), is an independent risk factor for acute ischaemic stroke (AIS).[1, 2] In a cohort study with 27,937 healthy women, subjects with LDL-C ≥ 151 mg/dL had a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.85 to experience an AIS within 11 years relative to those with an LDL-C < 96 mg/dL, where the 95% confidence interval (CI) was 1.22 to 2.80. [3]Lipid-lowering therapy is one of the critical strategies for both primary and secondary prevention of AIS.[4,5] A meta-analysis of the AIS prevention studies indicated that lipid-lowering therapy was associated with lower risks of AIS in the primary (risk ratio (RR): 0.70, 95% CI: 0.60–0.82; P < 0.001) and the secondary (RR: 0.80, 95% CI: 0.70-0.90; P < 0.001) prevention settings. [6] Additionally, a meta-analysis in the setting of atherosclerosis coronary heart disease (CHD) also showed that with every 39 mg/dL decrease in the LDL-C levels, the risks of major adverse cardiovascular events (including CHD death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, AIS or unstable angina requiring hospitalization) appeared to be 24% lower (adjusted HR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.63–0.91; P = 0.0025).[7] Our prior study found that achieving an LDL-C < 70 mg/dL may be effective in inhibiting the progression of carotid atherosclerosis plaques in patients with AIS. [8]However, lower LDL-C levels might increase the risks of intracranial haemorrhage (ICH). LDL-C < 90 mg/dL was associated with a higher risk of haemorrhage transformation after AIS, which was attributable to large artery atherothrombosis: the risks were increased by 54.0% with each 39 mg/dL decrease in the LDL-C levels (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 0.46 per 39 mg/dL increase, 95% CI: 0.22–0.98). [9] A case-control study found the LDL-C level was significantly lower in patients with ICH compared to the controls (114 vs. 128 mg/dL; P = 0.016).[10] A post hoc analysis of the SPARCL study also found that patients with LDL-C < 70 mg/dL had a trend of increased risks of ICH relative to those with LDL-C ≥ 100 mg/dL (HR = 1.28, 95% CI: 0.78–2.09). [11] Above all, the target value of LDL-C to be achieved through lipid-lowering therapy is still unclear due to the potential risks of ICH. We carried out a single-centre retrospective cohort study to investigate the associations between the LDL-C levels (< 70, 70 to < 100 and ≥ 100 mg/dL) and the outcomes of haemorrhagic stroke to provide preliminary information about safe targets for lipid-lowering therapy. 相似文献

ObjectiveIt is indicated that total/HDL cholesterol and LDL/HDL cholesterol ratios have more predictive power for cardiovascular disease compared to classic lipid parameters. However, there have been few reports about the usefulness of these indices for the assessment of early stage atherosclerosis in Japanese type 2 diabetic subjects.MethodsWe examined the relation between various lipid parameters and carotid atherosclerosis in 934 type 2 diabetic subjects without apparent atherosclerotic diseases (males, 71.7%; age, 59.6 ± 10.5 years (mean ± SD)). Serum concentrations of total cholesterol (TC), HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), and triglyceride were measured. LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) level was calculated using the Friedewald formula. The presence of carotid plaque and intima-media thickness (IMT) were evaluated by ultrasonography.ResultsA stepwise multivariate regression analysis demonstrated that HDL-C (β = ?0.110, p < 0.001), TC/HDL-C (β = 0.132, p < 0.001) and LDL-C/HDL-C ratios (β = 0.132, p < 0.001) were independent determinants of IMT even after adjustment of other conventional risk factors. However, there was no significant correlation between IMT and TC, triglyceride, LDL-C, and non-HDL-C levels. TC/HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C ratios and non-HDL-C levels were significantly higher, but HDL-C levels were significantly lower in patients with carotid plaque than those without it (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the groups regarding TC, LDL-C, and triglyceride levels. Furthermore, TC/HDL-C (OR; 1.34, p < 0.001) and LDL-C/HDL-C (OR; 1.54, p < 0.001) ratios showed a positive and linear relationship with the prevalence of carotid plaque, whether covariates were adjusted or not.ConclusionsTC/HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C ratios are useful as a tool to assess the risk of early stage atherosclerosis in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients. 相似文献
