Dyslipidemia-related Risk Factors in Dialysis
Chronic Renal DiseaseCardiovascular Disease1 moreIn this study, we studied lipoprotein abnormalities-related variables as risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease in patients on renal replacement therapies.We studied 96 dialyzed patients, 62 males and 34 females, on mean age 62.1 years old and 24 healthy controls.We concluded that metabolic acidosis activating the inflammation and lipoprotein oxidation influences the dyslipidemia and cardiovascular morbidity of patients on renal replacement therapies.Dialysis adequacy was positively associated to cardioprotective HDL.Peritoneal dialysis holds a better acidosis level and lower oxidized lipids than hemodialysis modalities.
A Observational Study to Evaluate Lipid-lowering Drug Its Effect on Parameters in Dyslipidemia of...
Complex DyslipidemiaTarget disease: Patients with combined dyslipidemia accompanied by type 2 diabetes who has done exogenous visit or hospitalization from Jan 2010 to June 2014. Study objective: The objective of this study is to Identifying the lipid parameter variation when treating patients who have dyslipidemia of type 2 diabetes for 3±1 months. After treating patients who have dyslipidemia of type 2 diabetes for 3±1 months, identifying the reason why changing method of drug dosage and pharmacotherapy. If the drug dosage and pharmacotherapy have been changed, Identifying the lipid parameter variation when treating patients by altered drugs for 3±1 months,
The Cork and Kerry Diabetes and Heart Disease Study (Phase II) Mitchelstown Cohort
Cardiovascular DiseasesDiabetes8 moreThe aim of the Cork and Kerry Study Phase II (Mitchelstown cohort recruited 2010-11) is to provide an updated profile of glucose tolerance status, cardiovascular health and their related factors in an Irish adult general population sample and to compare the findings with those obtained during baseline assessment of Phase I of the Cork and Kerry study (1998) and the rescreen (2008).
Effect of Gastric Bypass on Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and/or Dyslipidemia
Type 2 DiabetesThis is a retrospective review of patients who have undergone bariatric surgery at VUMC and who have type 2 Diabetes and/or dyslipidemia. The investigators have previously found that gastric bypass significantly improves diabetes 6-12 months after surgery. The investigators are interested in looking at the longer term results after surgery.
Additional KIF6 Risk Offers Better Adherence to Statins
Cardiovascular DiseasesDyslipidemiaMany patients prescribed statins to lower their cholesterol stop taking their statin over time. The purpose of this study is to determine whether providing subjects their KIF6 carrier status (associated with increased cardiovascular event risk) will improve adherence to statin medications.
Study of Undertreatment of Patients With Dyslipidemia in Bulgaria
DyslipidemiaThe purpose of this study is to establish the proportion of Bulgarian patients on lipid-lowering pharmacological treatment reaching the LDL-C goals according to the Fourth Joint European Task Force guidelines.
Education and Awareness Program Targeting the Assessment of Adherence of the Treatment of Dyslipidemia...
Patients With DyslipidemiaEvaluate the benefit (rate of adherence to the treatment), based on the LDL-C reduction in the group that will be exposed to the program of reinforcement of orientation aimed to the patients, compared to the control group, both in previous use of rosuvastatin.
Hs-CRP as Clinical Marker of Inflammatory Atherogenic Dyslipidemia
DyslipidemiaThe objective of this proposal is to study the applicability of the hs-CRP assay in the assessment of CV risk in daily clinical conditions where hyperlipidemic population with or without CHD are currently evaluated.
Screening and Management of High-risk Populations of Stroke in Dehui City
Cerebrovascular AccidentStroke3 moreThis epidemiological survey is to analyze the prevalence rate of stroke and exposure rate of risk factors in sampling population aged 40 years and over (born before December 31,1975) in Dehui City, to provide scientific basis for pertinent prevention and control of stroke in Jilin Province, and to provide valuable data for the high-risk groups to carry out regular follow-up and standardized management.
