Abstract Background The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different exercise loads (short, medium and long swimming distances) on the thyroid hormone (THs) levels and serum lipid profiles of male professional swimmers. Materials and methods The participants in this study were 20 healthy male professional swimmers aged 18–22 years, who all competed at an elite level. The THs levels [thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4)] and serum lipid profile were also obtained. Results It was determined that the TSH and T4 values increased after exercise (p < 0.05). When compared to the pretest values, the increase in the TSH and T4 values following the L400 tests was statistically significant (p < 0.001 and p < 0.05). It was also determined that the changes in the cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and total glucose (TG) values were significant after exercise (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) values (p = 0.07). According to the results, the cholesterol counts for the M200 and L400 groups were lower than the pretest counts (p < 0.001). When compared to the pretest values, the decrease in the HDL counts for the M200 and L400 groups was higher than the pretest HDL counts (p < 0.001 and p < 0.05, respectively). Further, the triglycerides counts for the M200 and L400 groups were higher than the pretest counts (p < 0.001). Conclusions Different exercise loads can have a positive impact on the physical health of swimmers via their lipid profiles and THs. Additionally, swimming exercise could be considered an efficient protective strategy against metabolic disorders, as it serves to balance the serum lipid levels.

Background: Gallbladder disease is one of the most common gastrointestinal diseases. Various studies have shown association between gallstone and alteration in serum lipids. The objective of this study was to evaluate histological patterns of cholecystectomy specimens and compare serum lipid profile of gallstone patients with controls.Methods: This study was conducted over a period of two years (April 2016 to April 2018). Records of 287 specimens who underwent cholecystectomy were analysed in which gallstones were found only in 186 patients. Out of 186 patients with gallstones, records of serum lipid profile were available in 32 patients which were compared with 32 control of similar age. Independent t- test was used to compare the data between cases and control.Results: Out of 287 cases, 68 were male and 219 were female with male to female ratio of 1:3.2. The predominant histopathological lesion was chronic cholecystitis (73.17%). Malignancy was observed in 0.7% cases. Serum total cholesterol, triglycerides and low density lipoprotein cholesterol were found to be higher and statistically significant in patients with gallstone compared to controls (p value 0.024, <0.001and 0.016 respectively). Serum High density lipoprotein cholesterol was lower in gallstone patient than in control but not statistically significant (p value 0.23).Conclusions: Chronic cholecystitis was the most common histopathological lesion. Serum total cholesterol, triglyceride and low density lipoprotein cholesterol level were elevated and statistically significant in patients with gallstone.

The Relationship

Background. Some studies suggest a significant relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and atherogenesis; but the mechanism of the relationship is almost unknown. The current study aimed at evaluating the relationship between H. pylori infection and serum lipid profile. Patients and Methods. The current study was conducted on 2573 patients, from 2008 to 2015. The serum anti-Helicobacter pylori antibody titer and serum lipid profile were assessed in the study population; data were statistically analyzed by SPSS version 16. P values < 0.05 were considered significant. Results. In the current study, 66.5% of the cases were serologically positive for H. pylori. Among male cases, the level of low density lipoprotein (LDL) was higher in patients with H. pylori infection, compared with that of the ones without the infection (P=0.03); although level of triglyceride (TG) was higher and the level of high density lipoprotein (HDL) was lower in the cases with H. pylori infection; there was no statistically significant difference between the cases with and without H. pylori infection regarding the level of HDL and TG. Among female cases, the level of TG was significantly lower in patients with H. pylori infection, compared with that of the ones without the infection (P=0.001); but there was no significant difference between the cases with and without H. pylori infection regarding the level of LDL and HDL. The mean fasting blood sugar (FBS) in the cases with H. pylori infection was significantly higher than that of the ones without the infection (P=0.04). Conclusion. According to the results of the current study, the levels of LDL and FBS were high among the male cases with H. pylori infection. However, in females with H. pylori infection the level of TG was low; hence, it seems that the atherogenicity of H. pylori affected the level of blood sugar more.

Background. This study investigates the effects of Brazil nut ingestion on serum lipid profile in healthy volunteers.Methods. Ten healthy subjects were enrolled in the study. Each subject was tested 4 times in a randomized crossover in relation to the ingestion of different serving sizes of the Brazil nut: 0, 5, 20, or 50 g. At each treatment point, peripheral blood was drawn before and at 1, 3, 6, 9, 24, and 48 hours and 5 and 30 days. Blood samples were tested for total cholesterol, high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c and LDL-c, resp.), triglycerides, selenium, aspartate and alanine aminotransferases, albumin, total protein, alkaline phosphatase, gamma GT, urea, creatinine, and C-reactive protein.Results. A significant increase of the plasma selenium levels was observed at 6 hours within the groups receiving the nuts. Serum LDL-c was significantly lower, whereas HDL-c was significantly higher 9 hours after the ingestion of 20 or 50 g of nuts. The biochemical parameters of liver and kidney function were not modified by ingestion of nuts.Conclusions. This study shows that the ingestion of a single serving of Brazil nut can acutely improve the serum lipid profile of healthy volunteers.

The present study was designed to evaluate the association of lipid profile in pre- eclampsia and eclampsia. This case-control study was carried out in the department of biochemistry, M.A.G. Osmani Medical College, Sylhet, during July 2005 to June 2006. Total 100 study subjects were evaluated, 40 normotensive pregnant women (mean age 24.90 ± 4.04) as normal and 60 already diagnosed preeclamptic & eclamptic women (mean age 24.17 ± 4.90) as study group. Age range was 15-45 years, gestational age 24 weeks to term were included. Patients with pre-existing hypertension were excluded. Serum lipid profile (total lipids, cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL-cholesterol and LDLcholesterol) of hundred women with Pre-eclampsia and Eclampsia (n=60), normotensive women (n=40) were monitored. The preeclampsia was associated with a significant rise in triglyceride (225.6 ± 28.93 vs 165.6 ± 17.22) and fall in HDL cholesterol concentration (42.4 ± 9.29 vs 55.7 ± 7.11), while eclamptic women showed significant fall in HDL cholesterol (41.8 ± 8.79 vs 55.7 ± 7.11) and rise in LDL cholesterol (133.4 ± 11.75 vs 115.2 ± 10.72) as compared to normal pregnant women. Lipid metabolism plays a key role in the pathophysiology of Pre-eclampsia and Eclampsia. Increased triglycerides levels along with decreased HDL-cholesterol levels and delayed triglycerides clearance and high blood pressure are associated with development of preeclampsia and eclampsia. This association may be significant in understanding the pathologic processes of preeclampsia and may help in developing strategies for prevention or early diagnosis of the disorder.

We evaluated the effect of including 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10.0% mango waste meal (MWM) variety UBA in corn and soybean meal-based diet son the serum lipid profile of broilers. The experimental design was completely randomized, with five treatments and six replicates with 20 birds per experimental unit. Concentrations of creatinine, albumin, total protein, total cholesterol, triacylglycerols (TAG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), were evaluated at the ages of 14, 28 and 42 days, with 30 birds evaluated per age. At 14 days, there was no difference serum creatinine, total cholesterol, HDL, triacylglycerols, total proteins or VLDL-C concentrations as compared with control. Albumin concentration was the highest at the MWM inclusion levels of 5.0, 7.5 and 10.0%. At 28 days, triacylglycerols, VLDL-C and LDL-C were the lowestat 7.5% inclusion whereas at 42 days, these same variables were the lowest with addition of 10.0% meal. At 14, 28 and 42 days of age, the VLDL-C, LDL-C and total TAG contents were found to decrease at mango waste meal inclusion levels of 5.0 and 7.5% in the diets, which maybe considered an indicator of improvements in the metabolic conditions of broilers.

Background: The most leading cause of perinatal and maternal deaths and morbidity in developed and developing countries like India is pregnancy related hypertensive disorders especially pre-eclampsia. PIH is defined as; in previously normotensive and normoproteinuric women, hypertension of >_ 140/90 mmHg with or without proteinuria measured on two occasions 6 hours apart after gestational age (20 weeks).Women with pregnancy related hypertensive disorders experience varied and altered lipid changes.    Increased TG, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), cholesterol and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations leading to dyslipidemia was found in majority of the studies. Aim: The study aims to evaluate predictor like maternal sr. lipid profile in 2nd trimester in pregnancy related hypertensive disorders. Objective: To evaluate the occurrence of normal maternal and altered maternal serum lipid profile serum lipid profile in 2nd trimester of pregnancy in pregnancy related hypertensive disorders and compare them . Materials and Methods: The design of the study will be prospective as well as observational conducted from September 2020 to august 2022 with an estimated sample size of 1000. Patients included were nnormotensive and non-proteinuric in second trimester (13-20 weeks of gestation). Subjects will be evaluated on the basis of preformed and pretested proforma consisting of history, clinical symptoms and presentation and investigations. Blood samples for serum lipid profile will be collected in plain bulb with aseptic conditions and analyzed at the biochemistry laboratory by enzymatic method. Expected Results: We expect that from our results, altered maternal serum lipid profile in 2nd trimester will be positively associated with pregnancy related hypertensive disorders.

Diabetes Mellitus is one of the leading non-communicable diseases all over the world including Bangladesh. Diabetes is often preceded by a prodromal condition termed pre-diabetes. Pre-diabetes is a condition in which the blood glucose level is above normal but below the diagnostic threshold for diabetes mellitus. Impaired lipid profile is commonly present in type 2 diabetes and can also occur in pre-diabetes. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the association between serum lipid profile and glycated hemoglobin in pre-diabetic individuals in middle-aged Bangladeshi subjects. This observational cross sectional study was carried out in the department of Biochemistry, Bangladesh Institute of Research & Rehabilitation in Diabetes, Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders (BIRDEM) hospital, from July 2013 - June 2014. A total 131 subjects of age within the range of 30-45 years were selected for the purpose and classified into apparently healthy control (n=62), pre-diabetes (n= 69) groups based on the values of OGTT. Blood glucose – both fasting and 2hr after glucose, HbA1C, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level were measured in all study subjects. Among the middle aged Bangladeshi subjects attending BIRDEM hospital, mean±SD of HbA1c values were 5.3±1.1% in control group and 5.9±1.2% in pre-diabetes. There was no significant difference in total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL-c and LDL-c in patients with normal and Pre-diabetic individuals. According to this study, HbA1c value does not correlate well with total cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL-c (p=0.47, 0.93, 0.49) in patients with pre-diabetic individuals. Studies on larger population are required to determine the prognostic

Background: Cirrhosis is defined anatomically as a diffuse process with fibrosis and nodule formation. It is the result of the fibrogenesis that occurs with chronic liver injury. For reduced liver biosynthesis capacity, low level of serum cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) is usually observed in the chronic liver disease. Due to the high prevalence of chronic liver disease in our country we have conducted this study to determine role of lipid profile in a patient with cirrhosis and to assess its relationship to the severity of cirrhosis.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, patients classified in 3 groups as per CTP classification for severity of cirrhosis. Serum lipid profile was observed in these patients. The primary aim was to assess changes in various parameters of lipid profile and its relationship with severity of liver cirrhosis.Results: About 74 cirrhotic patients were enrolled, 20 in class A, 25 in class B and 29 in class C. serum lipid profile was observed in these patients. Serum cholesterol and HDL cholesterol were decreased with increasing severity of cirrhosis. Serum triglyceride level increases with progression of cirrhosis and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) level has no correlation with severity of cirrhosis.Conclusions: Serum cholesterol and HDL level decreases with progression of cirrhosis. In future serum lipid profile can be used in classification criteria for assessing severity of liver cirrhosis.
