Type II Hyperlipoproteinemia in Mother and Twins [PDF]

Circulation, 1969
A 36-year-old housewife with type II hyperlipoproteinemia became pregnant with twins. Although the pregnancy was uneventful, the serum triglycerides were elevated during the third trimester, the delivery, and early puerperium. The mother had no complications directly related to the pregnancy despite hypercholesterolemia, coronary atherosclerosis, and ...

A case report of palmar xanthoma with xanthomatous neuropathy

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2021
Xanthomas are plaques or nodules consisting of an accumulation of excess lipids, resulting in the formation of foam cells in the skin or tendons. Typically, xanthomas are not accompanied by other symptoms. Here, we report a patient with a presentation of

Structural and metabolic heterogeneity of beta-very low density lipoproteins from cholesterol-fed dogs and from humans with type III hyperlipoproteinemia.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1982
Cholesteryl ester-rich beta-very low density lipoproteins (beta-VLDL) are beta-migrating lipoproteins that accumulate in the d < 1.006 g/ml fraction of plasma from cholesterol-fed animals and from patients with Type III hyperlipoproteinemia.

Update on Familial Hypercholesterolemia: Diagnosis, Cardiovascular Risk, and Novel Therapeutics [PDF]

Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2017
In recent studies, the reported prevalence of heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) has been higher than in previous reports. Although cascade genetic screening is a good option for efficient identification of affected patients, diagnosis using

Role of apolipoproteins E and C in type V hyperlipoproteinemia.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
Type V hyperlipoproteinemia is characterized by elevations of chylomicron (CM) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglycerides. The development of this lipid disorder involves a multitude of metabolic derangements including deficient clearance of ...

Control of sterol synthesis and of hydroxymethylglutaryl CoA reductase in skin fibroblasts grown from patients with homozygous type II hyperlipoproteinemia

Journal of Lipid Research, 1975
In skin fibroblasts grown from four children with a homozygous form of type II hyperlipoproteinemia, the feedback control of sterol synthesis and the inhibitory effect on hydroxymethylglutaryl (HMG) CoA reductase activity by serum or low density ...

Impact of epicardial adipose tissue on myocardial function and structure in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis. [PDF]

ESC Heart Fail
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has been linked to adverse remodelling and outcomes in aortic valve stenosis (AS), yet mechanisms remain unclear. In 137 patients with severe AS undergoing CMR before TAVR, higher EAT (≥46.5 ml/m2) was associated with impaired left atrial (LA) reservoir strain, while ventricular morphology, function and tissue ...

Ghrelin Levels in Male Patients with Hyperlipoproteinemia I, II versus Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

مجلة كلية الطب, 2014
Background; Hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP)  are divided in primary and secondary subtypes. Primary HLP is usually due to genetic causes. Secondary HLP is resulting from another underlying disorder such as diabetes mellitus that leads to alterations in plasma

Identification of an apoC-II variant (apoC-IIBethesda) in a kindred with apoC-II deficiency and type I hyperlipoproteinemia.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
Apolipoprotein (apo) C-II deficiency is characterized by elevated plasma triglycerides, chylomicrons, and very low density lipoproteins, as well as reduced levels of low density and high density lipoproteins.
