Relationship of fibrinogen with cardiovascular risk factors in healthy men from Maracaibo, Venezuela
Campos G Diez-Ewald M Ryder E Torres-Guerra E Fernández V Rivero F Arocha-Piñango CL;Grupo FRICVE 《Investigación clínica》2008,49(3):341-351
The purpose of this paper was to determine the relationship between fibrinogen concentration and cardiovascular ischaemic risk factors in a group of apparently healthy men from Maracaibo, Venezuela. Two hundred and forty six individuals, ages 31 to 65 years were evaluated by means of clinical and laboratory examination. In each person plasma fibrinogen concentration was measured by coagulometry, serum glucose and lipids by enzymatic methods and insulin by radioimmunoanalysis. 31.7% of subjects had fibrinogen values in the highest tertil of the whole group (> or = 311 mg/dL), they also showed significantly higher values of total cholesterol (p < 0.03) and LDL-C (p < 0.01). In addition, the individuals in this tertil showed a significant and positive correlation between the values of triglycerides with insulin (p < 0.02) and with HOMA-IR (p < 0.01). On the other hand, correlation analysis also showed a positive significant association between the fibrinogen levels and total cholesterol (p < 0.02), dependent of individuals with family history of ischaemic cardiovascular disease (total cholesterol: p < 0.02 and LDL-C: p < 0.003). In consideration of the high concentrations of fibrinogen found in 31.7% of apparently healthy men and their significant positive correlation with total cholesterol and LDL-C, on the group of men with a family history of ischaemic cardiovascular disease, it would be advisable to include the determination of fibrinogen in the cardiovascular evaluation of these particular subjects. 相似文献

The purpose of the present work was to determine the plasma concentrations of fibrinogen and Von Willebrand Factor (VWF) as well as platelet aggregation, in an apparently healthy population of 306 men and 41 women, 33 to 65 years of age, workers of the national oil industry (PDVSA, Maracaibo), as a base investigation in a 5-year prospective national collaborative study. The participants were previously subjected to a thorough clinical examination with cardiovascular evaluation and laboratory tests. Clottable fibrinogen and VWF concentrations were determined in platelet poor plasma, the last one by immunoclectrophoresis, and a multimeric analysis of VWF was performed on those plasmas with concentrations higher than 150 U/dL by SDS agarose electrophoresis, followed by cellulose membrane transference. Platelet aggregation was studied in platelet rich plasma with no addition of stimulants and after collagen and ristocetin were added. Forty per cent of men and 65.8% of women, showed fibrinogen concentrations above 300 mg/dL (p < 0.01) and 12.2% of men and 15.4% of women had VWF values higher than 150 U/dL, with normal multimeric distribution. Fourteen individuals presented spontancous platelet aggregation and increased aggregation in 12 and 13 of them, after induction with collagen and ristocetin respectively. Comparing these findings with those of previous collaborative studies from other countries, the present results could mean that an important proportion of the population here studied, could be at risk for a future coronary event; however, as these are the base findings in Maracaibo, the significance of our results will be better evaluated at the end of the five year study. 相似文献

Heritability (h2 ) of a serum lipid or a serum lipoprotein concentration is the proportion of variability in that concentration, among individuals, which is associated with heredity.
We derive a familiar formula for estimating heritability (h2 ) from a simple linear model for inheritance. The formula was implied by Fisher (1918) and by Wright (1921); it was derived from a consideration of variances by Jensen (1967), and from a consideration of path coefficients by Rao et al. (1974). The estimate of heritability (ĥ2 ) is
ĥ2 = 2(r MZ - r DZ)
for twin studies, wherer mz and r DZ are the sample intraclass correlation coefficients among monozygous and dizygous twins, respectively. We calculate ĥ2 for some published twin data (Heiberg 1974) on serum lipoprotein and serum lipid concentrations. 相似文献

Associations of serum TRAIL concentrations, anthropometric variables, and serum lipid parameters in healthy adults 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
To investigate the relationships of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), anthropometric variables, and lipid parameters, we measured serum TRAIL concentrations, body mass index (BMI), total body fat (TBF), and serum lipid profiles in 207 healthy adults. There were no significant differences in serum TRAIL concentrations between men and women, nor between elderly persons and middle-aged subjects. However, men with TBF 16.4 kg (75th per centile) exhibited significantly higher serum TRAIL concentrations than those with TBF 11.2 kg (25th per centile) (69.7 +/- 15.1 pg/ml vs 50.2 +/- 14.3 pg/ml, p < 0.05). Serum TRAIL concentration averaged 76.2 +/- 16.1 pg/ml in women with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) 165 mg/dl (75th per centile), which was significantly above the values (53.1 +/- 12.9 pg/ml, p < 0.05) in those with LDL-C 117 mg/dl (25th per centile), although no differences were observed on the basis of TBF (75th percentile vs 25th percentile). Serum TRAIL concentrations correlated significantlywithTBF (r = 0.31, p < 0.05) and lean body mass (r = -0.26, p <0.05) in men and LDL-C (r = 0.32, p < 0.05) and total cholesterol (r = 0.21, p < 0.05) in women. In conclusion, serum TRAIL concentrations are associated with serum lipid levels and body adiposity in healthy adults, but are unrelated to a subject's age or gender. 相似文献

To investigate the relationships of apoptosis with obesity and lipid parameters, we measured serum soluble APO-1 (sAPO-1) concentrations, body mass index (BMI), and serum lipid profiles in 176 healthy adults. Serum sAPO-1 levels were measured by enzyme immunoassay. There were no significant differences in mean sAPO-1 concentrations between men and women, nor between subjects with and without obesity. However, women with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) <50.2 mg/dl exhibited significantly higher sAPO-1 concentrations than those with HDL-C >50.2 mg/dl (ie, 45.6 +/- 10.4 pg/ml vs 31.5 +/- 11.3 pg/ml, p <0.05). Serum sAPO-1 concentrations averaged 46.8 +/- 10.7 pg/ml in women with serum triglyceride >137.4 mg/dl, which was significantly above the mean value (32.6 +/- 12.0 pg/ml, p <0.05) in those with serum triglyceride <137.4 mg/dl. Men with elevated sAPO-1 concentrations showed significantly higher waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) and total body fat (TBF) compared to those with diminished sAPO-1 levels, although no differences were noted in mean values of lipid profiles between the 2 groups of men. Serum sAPO-1 concentrations correlated significantly with HDL-C (r = - 0.41, p <0.05) and triglyceride (r = 0.35, p <0.05) in women and WHR (r = 0.25, p <0.05) and TBF (r = 0.21, p <0.05) in men. In conclusion, serum sAPO-1 appears to have an important relationship to serum lipid levels and body adiposity in healthy adults. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence and clinical characterization related to eating disorders in adolescents from both sexes. In order to do so, the diagnostic criteria and psychological symptoms described by the DSM-IV were used. The sample for this study was constituted by 1,363 adolescents, taken from a population of 23,831 students, who were randomly selected. The sample was stratified taking into account whether they came from a public or a private school and the school levels (middle and high school). The A.B.A checklist was administered to the subjects. This checklist was designed to identify the symptoms that characterize each of the disorders that are the main focus of this study, using DSM-IV criteria. Results from this study show a prevalence of 0% for anorexia nervosa, 1.58% for bulimia nervosa, and .66% for binge eating disorder. Clinical characterization and psychological symptoms related to these disorders show distinguishing features that give distinctive traits to the subjects of this study. 相似文献

Twenty patients, aged 30–60 yr, who had undergone bilateral ovariectomy, were treated orally with 5 mg medrogestone (6,17-dimethylpregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione) and 1.25 mg conjugated oestrogens per day, according to a constant dosage pattern during the cycle (22 + 6 days). The lipids and lipoproteins were determined twice before the start of therapy and 3, 6 and 12 mth thereafter. The lipids were quantified enzymatically and the lipoproteins by quantitative lipoprotein electrophoresis. Whilst cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations showed no detectable change, a slight but significant increase was seen in the high-density alphalipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentrations. The low-density beta-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level showed a moderate fall. There was a resultant reduction in the beta/alpha-lipoprotein ratio. Accordingly, the apoprotein A1 concentrations were found to be elevated, while apoprotein B tended to fall to lower levels during therapy. When these changes are measured by the lipid metabolism risk criterion for the occurrence of coronary heart disease applicable to post-menopausal patients, the effects of the above-mentioned combination may be regarded as entirely favourable. 相似文献

The genetic influence on serum lipid and lipoprotein levels was estimated in twins. Twin zygosity was confirmed by analysis of at least 19 genetic marker systems in each twin. Fifty pairs of randomly selected, healthy, normolipidemic twins, 18 to 24 years of age, were studied.
Significant differences were found between the inter- and intrapair variances for all lipid and lipoprotein parameters in the monozygous twins, and for most values in dizygous twins. The intrapair variances of all lipid and lipoprotein parameters tested were smaller in MZ than DZ twins, and significant differences were found for cholesterol, phospholipids, total lipids, pre-β- and α-lipoproteins.
H statistics, intraclass correlations and the F ratios all point to a high, but somewhat varying degree of genetic influence on the levels of all serum lipid and lipoprotein concentrations investigated, the genetic effect being particulary pronounced for cholesterol and total lipids. 相似文献

Individuals with schizophrenia have standardised mortality rates which are double that of the general population. In addition to suicide, high rates of cardiovascular and respiratory disease contribute to this raised mortality rate. Although clozapine has been reported to improve psychotic symptoms and decrease suicide rates, attention has recently focussed on its potential to increase cardiovascular risk factors including obesity, dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to ascertain the prevalence of these risk factors in a cohort of Irish outpatients treated with clozapine. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Recent evidence suggests that naturally occurring low cholesterol concentrations (<4.14 mmol/liter) are associated with depression as well as poor psychological health. For the most part, these associations have been observed in men. The current study assessed the relation of naturally occurring low lipid and lipoprotein concentrations to trait measures of depression and anxiety in 121 healthy young adult women. METHODS: Fasting lipid samples were collected at the same time as health history. Trait depression and anxiety were assessed using the Neuroticism, Extraversion, Openness-Personality Inventory (NEO-PI) depression subscale and Spielberger's Trait Personality Inventory (STPI) anxiety subscale. Analyses were conducted using both univariate and multivariate procedures. RESULTS: NEO depression was inversely associated with total cholesterol (p = .027), triglycerides (p = .012), and the ratio of total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = .059). Similarly, STPI anxiety was inversely associated with total cholesterol (p = .002), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = .016), triglycerides (p = .024), and ratio of total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = .075). These associations were significant after adjustment for age, body mass index, physical activity, oral contraceptive use, and hostility. Neither depression nor anxiety was associated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Univariate analyses indicated that women with low total cholesterol concentrations (<4.14 mmol/liter), relative to those with moderate to high cholesterol levels, were more likely to have higher scores on the NEO depression subscale (27 of 69 (39%) vs. 10 of 52 (19%)) and STPI anxiety subscale (24 of 69 (35%) vs. 11 of 52 (21%)). CONCLUSIONS: In healthy young adult women, low lipid and lipoprotein concentrations are inversely associated with trait measures of depression and anxiety. These findings are independent of age, body mass index, physical activity, and other factors known to influence lipid concentrations. 相似文献

Two recently reported short tandem repeat polymorphisms characterized by PCR, D1S1656 and D12S391, were investigated in a sample from Maracaibo, an admixed population of Venezuela, in order to evaluate their application in forensic and population genetics studies. The unbiased heterozygosities were 0.9011 and 0.8444 for locus D1S1656 and D12S391, respectively. The joint discrimination power and joint probability of exclusion were 0.99972 and 0.93287. When allele frequencies of locus D1S1656 from Maracaibo were compared with eight other populations, our group clustered with the European or European‐derived samples, mainly from Spain. In the comparison of locus D12S391 with 16 populations, Maracaibo clustered with 3 Asian samples. The high heterozygosity and discrimination power make these two loci important candidates to be considered for STR packages for forensic and population genetic purposes. Am. J. Hum.

Parvovirus B19 (hereafter referred to as B19) exhibits a marked tropism to human bone marrow (BM), and infection may lead to erythema infectiosum, arthropathy, hydrops fetalis, and various hematologic disorders. Recently, a distinct parvovirus isolate termed V9 with an unknown clinical spectrum was discovered. In contrast to the many studies of B19 serology and viremia, valid information on the frequency of B19 or V9 DNA in the BM of healthy individuals is limited. To develop a reference value, paired BM and serum samples from healthy subjects were tested for the presence of B19 and V9 DNA and specific antibodies. Immunoglobulin M (IgM) was not found in any of the serum samples. The prevalence of IgG showed a gradual and steady increase from 37% in children aged 1 to 5 years to 87% in people aged >50 years. When 190 well-characterized subjects were examined, B19 DNA was detected in the BM of 4 individuals (2.1%; 95% confidence interval, 0.58 to 5.3%) while none of the paired serum samples showed evidence of circulating viral DNA. V9 DNA was not found in any of the BM or serum samples. The finding of B19 DNA probably indicated a primary infection in one 7-year-old individual and reinfection or reactivation of persistent infection in the remaining three persons, aged 47 to 58 years. Serving as a benchmark for future studies, these findings are useful when interpreting epidemiologic data, performing BM transplantation, or considering clinical implications of parvovirus infection. 相似文献

STUDY OBJECTIVES: We examined the individual association between sleep duration and a high serum triglyceride, low HDL cholesterol, or high LDL cholesterol level. DESIGN AND SETTING: The present study analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Survey that was conducted in November 2003 by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. This survey was conducted on residents in the districts selected randomly from all over Japan. PARTICIPANTS: The subjects included in the statistical analysis were 1,666 men and 2,329 women aged 20 years or older. INTERVENTION: N/A. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS: Among women, both short and long sleep durations are associated with a high serum triglyceride level or a low HDL cholesterol level. Compared with women sleeping 6 to 7 h, the relative risk of a high triglyceride level among women sleeping <5 h was 1.51 (95% CI, 0.96-2.35), and among women sleeping > or =8 h was 1.45 (95% CI, 1.00-2.11); the relative risk of a low HDL cholesterol level among women sleeping <5 h was 5.85 (95% CI, 2.29-14.94), and among women sleeping > or =8 h was 4.27 (95% CI, 1.88-9.72). On the other hand, it was observed that the risk of a high LDL cholesterol level was lower among men sleeping > or =8 h. These analyses were adjusted for the following items: age, blood pressure, body mass index, plasma glucose level, smoking habit, alcohol consumption, dietary habits, psychological stress, and taking cholesterol-lowering medications. CONCLUSIONS: Usual sleep duration is closely associated with serum lipid and lipoprotein levels. 相似文献

Introduction
Cigarette smoking has a negative effect on body reserve of antioxidants and cholesterol metabolism. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a potent antioxidant synthesized as part of the cholesterol pathway, is a potential biomarker for systemic oxidative stress. We aimed to investigate gender variation in plasma lipid profile and CoQ10 concentrations in healthy non-smokers and in smokers.Material and methods
The study included 55 cigarette smokers (25 females and 30 males) and 51 non-smokers (25 females and 26 males) with the age range from 21 to 45 years, and who had no history of alcohol abuse or chronic diseases such as diabetes mellitus or obesity. Coenzyme Q10 plasma concentrations were measured by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet detection. Fasting plasma glucose and lipid levels were determined by standard colorimetric methods.Results
Our results showed that CoQ10 concentrations were significantly decreased in smokers, especially in females, than their non-smoker counterparts. Female smokers also exhibited a significant decrease in plasma concentrations of total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C, LDL-C, and atherogenic ratios HDL-C/TC and CoQ10/LDL-C than male counterparts. Plasma triglyceride concentrations were increased in smokers irrespective of gender. Plasma CoQ10 was relatively more associated with TC and LDL-C in female smokers than male smokers.Conclusions
The adverse effects of smoking on body reserve of antioxidants and cholesterol metabolism are greater in females than in males, partially as a result of decreased CoQ10 plasma concentrations, HDL-C and total-cholesterol and abnormal atherogenicity indices. 相似文献20.
The effects of long-term low intensity aerobic training and detraining on serum lipid and lipoprotein concentrations in elderly men and women 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effects of long-term low intensity aerobic training and detraining on serum lipid and lipoprotein concentrations were examined in 30 elderly men and women. These subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The training group [n=15; 7 men and 8 women; mean age 75.5 (SD 5.6) years] agreed to take part in physical training using a treadmill with an exercise intensity at the blood lactate concentration threshold for 30 min 3–6 times a week for 9 months. The other group [n=15; 7 men and 8 women; mean age 73.7 (SD 4.4) years] did not perform any particular physical training and was followed as the control. Following this training period the high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) had increased significantly (P<0.01) while the total cholesterol (TC) : HDL-C ratio had decreased significantly (P<0.01) in the training group after 9 months but had not changed in the control group. The TC, triglyceride (TG) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) had not changed significantly in either group. No significant difference was seen between the groups throughout the period for TC, LDLC or TG. There was, however, a significant correlation between the initial TC:HDL-C ratio and the change in the TC:HDL-C ratio following 3 months of training (P <0.05). After 1 month of detraining in 5 patients, the HDL-C had decreased significantly (P < 0.05) while the TC:HDL-C had increased significantly in the training group (P<0.01). These results suggested that long-term low intensity aerobic training improved the profile of serum lipid and lipoprotein concentrations, while detraining returned the profile to that of the pretraining levels in elderly persons. 相似文献
