The Effects of ProAlgaZyme on HDL Cholesterol in Individuals With Metabolic Syndrome
Metabolic SyndromeHyperlipidemiaThe purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of ProAlgaZyme in increasing levels of HDL 'good' cholesterol and decreasing total cholesterol and C-reactive protein in patients with Metabolic Syndrome.
Treatment of Hyperlipidemia and Sexual Dysfunction
Sexual DysfunctionHyperlipidemiaHyperlipidemias are frequently associated with and are considered an important cause of erectile dysfunction in men. This association has been attributed to the impairment of blood flow through endothelium-dependent relaxation in smooth muscle cells of corpus cavernosum. Basic science and human research suggest that the vascular pathophysiology of male and female sexual dysfunction may be similar, as the first phase of the female sexual response is mediated by a combination of vasocongestive and neuro-muscular event which include increased clitoral length and diameter, as well as increased vaginal lubrication, wall engorgement and luminal diameter. The investigators have shown that women with hyperlipidemia had a higher prevalence of sexual dysfunction as compared with age-matched women without hyperlipidemia. The aim of this study was to asses the effect of anti-hyperlipidemic drugs (fenofibrate and rosuvastatin, single or in combination) on validated indices of sexual function in hyperlipidemic men and women with sexual dysfunction at baseline.
Dapagliflozin on Hyperlipidemia and Insulin Resistance in Type 2 Diabetic Patients (DAPHNIS Study)...
Diabetes MellitusType 2The investigators will investigate whether dapagliflozin (FORXIGA) might improve lipoprotein metabolism as well as hyperglycemia in Japanese patients with type II diabetes mellitus whose HbA1c levels are less than 7.0% (from 20 to 65 years of age). The investigators will examine changes of fasting lipoprotein profile including TG, TC, HDL-C, apoB-48 and RemL-C before and after the 8 weeks administration of dapagliflozin.

Nutraceuticals to Improve Lipid Profile in European Countries
HyperlipidemiaCardiovascular prevention include a class I indication to statins in addition to non-pharmacologic intervention and prevention strategies in patients deemed to be 'high risk' according to current scientific guidelines. In the real world, however, statin treatment is often discontinued due to side effects. In addition, statins are not indicated in those subjects deemed to be 'low risk', in whom only non-pharmacologic intervention and prevention strategies are currently prescribed. Along with non-pharmacologic intervention and prevention strategies, newer approaches to reduce cholesterol blood levels currently include nutraceuticals, which are compounds derived from foods with cholesterol lowering actions. The primary objective of this study is twofold: First, to prospectively compare in the real world clinical practice the efficacy and tolerability of non-pharmacologic intervention vs. the combination of non-pharmacologic intervention with a nutraceutical-based protocol in patients in whom statin treatment is not tolerated or is not indicated. Second, to evaluate gender and race/ethnic differences in the hypolipidemic effects of a nutraceutical-based protocol among European countries.
