Active clinical trials for "Hyperlipoproteinemias"

The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and risk factors of diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia among Thai muslim population aged 35-75 years.

A cholesterol/lipid profile screening project of high risk patients with hyperlipidaemia (secondary prevention) who already receive cholesterol-lowering therapy. Lipid profile and rate of patients who are treated to target (which is <100mg/dl for patients with high risk and <70mg/dl for patients at very high risk) are screened (office-based specialists). The doctors therapy decisions after the screening and possible reasons for these decisions will be documented. Our aim is to evaluate dosing habits, to evaluate how many patients are treated to their LDL-C target and to underline the importance of treating patients to their cholesterol targets.

It is a prospective observational study. Patients will be high risk patients (for developing cardiovascular events) that are treated with a statin. Patients will be enrolled at a normal clinic visit and provided with a small box containing info about the disease, a LDL self-test and two questionnaires. They will test themselves for LDL at home between normal clinic visits (normally 12 months interval) and note their value. In the end of the study all patients will fill out a questionnaire with questions if the tests and info have raised their awareness of the disease as well if their motivation to be compliant has increased. We want to look at the possibility to put more responsibility for treatment and for reaching treatment goals on the patients since there's a big problem with compliance in this group of patients.

Researchers plan to study the fat-rich particles, called lipoproteins, which circulate in the blood. This study is designed to improve understanding of normal, as well as abnormal, lipoprotein metabolism and the role it plays in the development of hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis). Patients participating in this study will receive an intravenous (directly into the vein) injection of a small amount of specially prepared amino acids. The amino acids being injected are the same amino acids present in a normal diet. The amount of amino acid given will be less than the amount eaten in a protein-rich meal. The amino acids will be labeled with nonradioactive heavy isotopes which are also present in the environment n low amounts. Patients participating in the study will be required to have blood samples taken, and provide urine samples throughout the course of the study. In addition, patient will be required to follow a specially formulated diet. Patients will be weighed throughout the course of the study.

This study is designed to survey the awareness rate of Chinese National Adult Lipid Treatment Guideline (2007) by cardiologists; To survey the control rate of the patients with dyslipidemia in "real world"; and to evaluate the percentage of hyperlipidemia patients who achieved target LDL-C level according to the Chinese National Adult Lipid Treatment Guideline (2007) following 8-week treatment by Crestor® 5mg or 10mg

This study will address the proportion of achievement patients in treatment target goal on glycemic control, hypertension and hyperlipidemia according to ADA 2008 guideline, among outpatients coming to the Korean primary care nationwide.

At present,the prevalence of hyperlipidemia in Chinese adults is 40.40%,which is related to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and diabetes independent risk factors,while increasing the risk of cancer.Lipid metabolism affects the nutritional status of the intestinal epithelium,making the intestine Changes in the microenvironment of the intestinal flora affect the distribution of intestinal flora and eventually lead to bile acid metabolism change.Bile acid is a signal molecule that regulates glucose and lipid and energy metabolism in vivo State.The regulation of intestinal flora may be a new way to treat the imbalance of lipid metabolism,but it is currently sensitive to lipid metabolism the microbiome studies are unclear.In this study, newly diagnosed overweight patients with hyperlipidemia were treated with cholesterol absorption inhibition The drug intervention of ezeomab tablet and orlistat capsule for 12 weeks was observed to observe the changes of intestinal flora and bile acid metabolism after excessive cholesterol and triglyceride production.Clinical screening for the treatment of hyperlipidemia the study provides a reference for bacteria species and prevention and treatment,and provides a research basis for further development of drugs or foods that interfere with lipid metabolism by interfering with intestinal flora.
