Whole Egg

Whole egg is a food source of dietary cholesterol and inconsistent research findings exist about the effect of dietary cholesterol from whole egg on blood cholesterol concentration. We assessed the effect of co-consuming cooked whole egg (CWE) on dietary cholesterol absorption from two randomized-crossover studies. For study 1, 16 men consumed raw vegetables with no egg, 75 g CWE, or 150 g CWE. For study 2, 17 women consumed cooked vegetables with no egg or 100 g CWE. Triacylglycerol-rich lipoprotein fractions (TRL) were isolated from collected blood. In study 1, total-cholesterol areas under the curve (AUC)0–10h in TRL were not different but triacylglycerol AUC0–10h in TRL was greater for 150 g CWE vs. 75 g CWE and no egg. Similarly, in study 2, total-cholesterol AUC0–10h in TRL was not different but triacylglycerol AUC0–10h in TRL was greater for 100 g CWE vs. no egg. In both studies, whole egg consumption did not affect plasma total-cholesterol AUC0–10h, while triacylglycerol AUC0–10h was increased. These results suggest that the dietary cholesterol in whole egg was not well absorbed, which may provide mechanistic insight for why it does not acutely influence plasma total-cholesterol concentration and is not associated with longer-term plasma cholesterol control.

Acute decompression is associated with a shortening of the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT). This study was performed to examine whether this change in aPTT results from hypoxia or hypobaria. We exposed healthy adults on three separate occasions to 2 h of 1) hypoxic hypobaria (410 Torr, n = 5), 2) hypoxic normobaria (fractional inspired O2 tension = 0.11, n = 4), or 3) normoxic hypobaria (410 Torr breathing supplemental O2, n = 5). The aPTT shortened during hypoxic hypobaria and hypoxic normobaria (P less than 0.05) but was unchanged during normoxic hypobaria. The prothrombin and thrombin times, hematocrit, and concentrations of fibrinogen, total plasma protein, and fibrinogen-fibrin fragment E were unchanged. During hypoxic hypobaria biologic levels of prekallikrein, high-molecular-weight kininogen, and factors XII, XI, X, VII, V, and II were unchanged, but procoagulant VIII (VIII:C) increased 50% without an increase in VIII-related antigen levels (VIIIR:Ag). Fibrin monomer was not detected in any group. In one subject who became ill after 1.5 h of hypoxic normobaria aPTT shortened by 10 s; the platelet count decreased by 93,000/mm3; VIII:C increased fivefold, but VIIIR:Ag only increased three-fold. We conclude that it is the hypoxia which shortens aPTT during acute decompression to 410 Torr and speculate that it results from an increase in plasma VIII:C-like activity.
