Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the dialysis population. Among other risk factors abnormalities in lipid metabolism occur in patients with all stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The most common dyslipidemia in CKD and dialysis is hypertriglyceridemia, whereas the total cholesterol concentration can be normal or low, perhaps due in part to malnutrition. Although  hypertriglyceridemia that occurs in CKD may not significantly increase coronary risk, other changes may contribute to the accelerated atherosclerosis. We tried to find out how many patients in our setup on thrice weekly hemodialysis are suffering from dyslipidemia and whether taking treatment or not. Methodology: Cross sectional study conducted at dialysis center of Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore including all seventy patients with ESRD undergoing regular HD three times a week, 4 hours per session. Random blood samples (Non-fasting) were collected before dialysis for lipid profile including serum triglyceride, LDL, HDL and total cholesterol. Results: Out of 70 patients only 3 (4.4%) patients were on statins for dyslipidemia. Triglycerides were high in 41.4%, total cholesterol was low in 61.4%, and HDL was low in 34.3%. Conclusion: Hypertriglyceridemia is major lipid abnormality among hemodialysis patients.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a disease which disturbing the cardiovascular system. CVD is a disesase that can be prevented; 50 % of death can be prevented by changing the food habit. The aim is to know relationship of vitamine E and celenium with total cholesterol concentration in CVD patient in RSUD dr. M. Yunus Bengkulu 2013. Research design is cross sectional. Data are analysed by univariat and  bivariat analysis, correlation test. The sample are  35 people.  The  results  of  this  research  show  that  meaningfull  relationship between vitamine E intake and total cholesterol consentration (p = 0.02), and celenium intake with total cholesterol consentration (p = 0.037) on CVD patient.

Background: The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between vitamin D status and the prevalence of dyslipidemia and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in children. Methods and Summary: 284 children (150 boys and 134 girls) aged 9–11 were included in the study. Children with deficient 25(OH)D (25-hydroxycholecalciferol) levels ≤20 ng/mL (50 nmol/L) were characterized by a more frequent occurrence of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) (Odd ratios (OR) = 1.966, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.055–3.663; p = 0.033) when compared to children with 25(OH)D >20 ng/mL. Serum 25(OH)D with concentration lower by 1 ng/mL (2.5 nmol/L) was linked to higher fasting glucose (by 0.25 mg/dL, 0.013 mmol/L; p = 0.017), higher total cholesterol (TC) by almost 1 mg/dL (0.96 mg/dL, 0.25 mmol/L; p = 0.006) and higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (by 0.57 mg/dL, 0.015 mmol/L; p < 0.001). Conclusion: 25(OH)D deficiency may negatively affect fasting glucose and total cholesterol concentration in children aged 9–11. Vitamin D-deficient children are twice as likely to develop prediabetes as reflected by impaired fasting glucose when compared to those with a 25(OH)D level above 20 ng/mL (50 nmol/L).

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.
