Comparison of total and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in male recreational swimmers and sedentary controls
Total and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TC and HDL-C) and TC/HDL-C ratio were compared in 30 adult male recreational swimmers and 21 sedentary controls. Percentage of body fat, number of cigarettes smoked daily, and daily alcohol consumption were assessed for both groups. Maximum workout …

Plasma total and lipoprotein cholesterol in men fed dietary fat from beef, dairy products and olive oil
… decreased when attempting to lower plasma total cholesterol (TC). However, it has been suggested that stearic acid (18:0) does not increase plasma TC and should not be grouped with other saturated fatty acids: lauric (12:0), myristic (14:0) and palmitic (16:0), (LMP). Red meat contains a high …

Effect of calcium level and source on plasma total and lipoprotein cholesterol in men under controlled dietary conditions
… to determine the effects on plasma lipids and lipoproteins of a high calcium intake from two sources compared to a normal level of calcium intake over an eight week controlled feeding period. Three diet treatments were examined: 1) high dietary calcium mainly from dairy sources (1600-1800 …

The effect of an endurance and weight training program on plasma total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol
… and weight training program on plasma total cholesterol, high-density lipoproteins, body composition. Experimental subjects were randomly assigned to the treatment conditions. The subjects trained three days a week for nine weeks. The R group ran for 30 minutes a session at 75% predicted …

Total, abdominal, and hip fat mass and markers for coronary heart disease in pre and postmenopausal obese women
… previously collected and analyzed for lipid and lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations. Multiple regression analysis was used to determine relationships among regional fat mass and lipid and lipoproteins and MANOVA was used to assess differences in these variables between pre and postmenopausal …

The effect of different sources of dietary fiber on the plasma total and lipoprotein cholesterol, liver cholesterol, fecal neutral steroid excretion and histology of major organ tissues in hamsters
… fiber sources on the plasma lipids, liver cholesterol, the histology of the gastrointestinal tract, heart, liver and kidney and the fecal neutral steroid excretion was investigated in hamsters. 155, 9-11 wk old, male Golden-syrian hamsters were fed a purified basal hypercholesterolemic diet …

A comparison of low density Lipoprotein cholesterol concentration estimation by the Roche diagnostics direct measurement and the Friedewald methods: comparison with other lipidic cardiovascular risk estimation biomarkers in adult patients' sera in Windhoek, Namibia
… is the lipid profile fraction of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC). The routinely used Friedewald method for LDLC estimation has an unacceptably high analytical error. In this study, patient sera LDLC was estimated using the Friedewald method (cLDLC) and the Roche Diagnostics direct …

Role of the SAFE pathway and the mitochondria in HDL cholesterol (and its constituent sphingosine-1-phosphate) induced cardioprotection
High density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) and its component sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) protect against myocardial infarction. Recently, the SAFE (survivor activating factor enhancement) pathway, involving tumour necrosis factor (TNF) and the transcription factor signal transducer and activator …

Association of dietary and phosphatidylcholine supplement intake with cardio-metabolic biomarkers among normo- and hyperlipidaemic individuals
… of cellular membranes and plays a vital role in lipoprotein metabolism. Many studies have investigated the effects of phosphatidylcholine on lipid profiles; however, results have been inconsistent, therefore the precise effects of dietary phosphatidylcholine remain unclear. This project aimed to: …

Mining Genomic Variants And Causal Pathways Linking Hdl And Triglycerides To Coronary Disease
… Myriad data support a causal role of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in increasing risk of CHD. Long-standing epidemiology suggests that high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) may protect from disease while high triglycerides (TGs) increase CHD risk. However, the causality of …
