[Serum lipoproteins in different types of obesity in lipid loading challenge].

The impact of food fat load on plasmic lipid transport system (LTS) was studied in persons with abdominal and gluteofemoral obesity by the standard fat test proposed by J. Patsch. The lipoprotein spectrum in abdominally obese patients was characterized by high atherogenicity of lipoprotein spectrum on an empty stomach aggravating under fat intake: prolongation of postprandial lipemia up to 6 hours with growing apoB and apoB/A1.

[Characteristics of the blood lipoprotein spectrum in truck drivers from the rural Northern Caucasus areas].

Studies were performed of the blood lipoprotein spectrum in 20-59-year-old truck-drivers working in Northern Caucasus rural areas, depending on the age, duration of work in the profession and nationality, in comparison with male workers of other professions in the same areas. It was established that, in indigenous male workers of other than truck-driver's profession, the average levels of different cholesterol lipoproteids were lower than in other ethnic groups, whereas the hypoalfacholesterolemia occurrence was two-fold. In truck-drivers of both indigenous and non-indigenous groups, the lipoprotein spectrum age-related changes were similar.
