hypertriglyceridemia/hypoxia

Plasma triglyceride concentration and blood oxygen tension were measured in samples obtained by cordocentesis from 35 small- and 54 appropriate-for-gestational-age fetuses at 18 to 36 weeks' gestation. In the appropriate-for-gestational-age fetuses there was an exponential decrease in plasma

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) induces intermittent hypoxia (IH) during sleep and is associated with elevated triglycerides (TG). We previously demonstrated that mice exposed to chronic IH develop elevated TG. We now hypothesize that a single exposure to acute hypoxia also increases TG due to the

The metabolic disorders associated with chronic hypoxemia in adult patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) have not been fully appreciated. We report a 53-year-old male patient with TOF who presented with fasting hypoglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, increased blood levels of free fatty acids,

Cholesterol, low/high density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc, HDLc), triglycerides and phospholipids plasma concentrations were measured in arterial (UA) and venous (UV) cord blood samples collected at birth in 22 healthy newborn infants (G-I) in 24 intrapartum stressed newborn infants (G-II) and in

Exposure of sated rats to 45% N2 in air for 5h increased serum triglyceride levels by 212% over the levels in normoxic rats. This increase in triglyceride levels was accompanied by a decrease in plasma triglyceride hydrolase activity after intravenous injection of heparin. Further fractionation of

We have previously shown that exposure of C57BL/6J mice to intermittent hypoxia (IH) leads to 1) hypertriglyceridemia due to upregulation of pathways of lipid biosynthesis, including sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP)-1 and stearoyl CoA desaturase (SCD)-1; and 2) hypercholesterolemia

Sodium nitrite has been studied for its effect on lipid metabolism of Wistar line rats. It is shown that a single administration of sodium nitrite in account 5 mg per 100 g of the body weight results in the intensification of lipids peroxidation, hyperbetalipoproteinemia, hypertriglyceridemia,

Diabetes is associated with a fluctuating impairment in oxygen transport of the erythrocytes. This impairment is correlated with hyperglycemia by the formation of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAIC) and with inhibitory factors of glycolysis i.e. hypophosphatemia and acidosis which lower the

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of the recently identified syndrome Z (SZ), which is the co-occurrence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA; hypoxia, systemic and pulmonary hypertension, nocturnal arrhythmias) and metabolic syndrome (MetS; increased abdominal girth, hypertriglyceridemia, decreased

Tumor growth and abnormal cell survival were shown to be associated with a number of cellular metabolic abnormalities revealed by impaired oral glucose tolerance, depressed lipoprotein lipase activity leading to hypertriglyceridemia, and changes in amino acid profile as evidenced by increased plasma

Tumor growth and abnormal cell survival were shown to be associated with a number of cellular metabolic abnormalities revealed by impaired oral glucose tolerance, depressed lipoprotein lipase activity leading to hypertriglyceridemia, and changes in amino acid profile as evidenced by increased plasma

BACKGROUND Although the ingestion of a dose of colchicine lower than 0.5 mg/kg is usually complicated by a mortality rate less than 5%, severe complications may be associated with drug-drug interactions in case of overdose combining other drugs. METHODS A 33-year-old previously healthy woman was

BACKGROUND Intravascular lymphoma is rare, and may present as ischemic stroke. Diagnosis is difficult due to the non-specific presentation and lack of lymphadenopathy, thus leading to frequent instances of autopsy-proven diagnosis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of

Here we examine recent evidence suggesting that many drugs and diet supplements (DS), experimental AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) agonists as well as energy-depleting stress, lead to decreases in anabolism, growth or proliferation, and potency of cultured oocytes, embryos, and stem cells in an

Patients in the ICU who require intubation and mechanical ventilation benefit from adequate sedation and analgesia. Traditionally, this has been achieved using benzodiazepines and opioids. Alternatively, propofol is being administered for sedation of patients in the ICU with increasing frequency.
