AI Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the ratios of total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol and free fatty acid/albumin in different groups of diabetic patients, noting changes due to physical activity.
- Patients with poor diabetes control showed increased levels of both cholesterol ratios, whereas low albumin levels were linked to very poor control or complications.
- Increased physical activity consistently reduced the total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio, while children with good control but low physical activity had an opposite trend, indicating that both ratios are valuable indicators of diabetes management.
Article Abstract
The quotients total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol and free fatty acid/albumin in serum were examined in various groups of diabetic patients and the changes of the quotients induced by various forms of physical activity were then registered. Both total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol and free fatty acid/albumin were increased in patients with unsatisfactory control of diabetes. Low albumin levels were only seen in cases with very poor control or in cases afflicted by complications. Increased muscular activity unvariably led to a fall in the value of total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol while in children with adequate control but performing little physical exercise the quotient of free fatty acid/albumin was low and total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol was increased. In addition to the quotient of total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol also the quotient of free fatty acid/albumin is a sensitive indicator of the diabetic condition.

Two-fold increased risk of cardiovascular events in people with MDR HIV: a matched cohort analysis with data from the PRESTIGIO registry.
J Antimicrob Chemother
December 2024
Infectious Diseases, IRCCS San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milan, Italy.
Background: Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) may contribute to the high morbidity in people with four-class drug-resistant HIV (4DR-PWH).
Objectives: To explore the probability of MACEs in 4DR-PWH compared with non-4DR controls.
Methods: This was a retrospective, propensity score-matched cohort study on 4DR-PWH (cases) and non-4DR-PWH (controls), on ART, without previous MACEs.
Serum C-reactive Protein Levels about Insulin Resistance and Beta Cell Function in Iranian Women with Subclinical Hypothyroidism.
Iran J Pathol
July 2024
Cancer Molecular Pathology Research Center, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran.
Background & Objective: Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), is defined as an asymptomatic state characterized by a normal serum concentration of free thyroxine and elevated serum concentration of TSH. This study aims to investigate the complex interplay between hyperinsulinism, insulin resistance, beta cell function, and low-grade chronic inflammation in Iranian women with SCH.
Methods: Eighty women with SCH and 80 healthy women as controls matched to the patient group for sex, age, and body mass index (BMI), were enrolled in this prospective cross-sectional study.
Beef Consumption and Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Curr Dev Nutr
December 2024
Midwest Biomedical Research, Addison, IL, United States.
Background: Results from observational studies suggest associations of red meat intake with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD); however, RCTs have not clearly demonstrated a link between red meat consumption and CVD risk factors. Further, the specific effects of beef, the most consumed red meat in the United States, have not been extensively investigated.
Objectives: This study aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of RCT data evaluating the effects of minimally or unprocessed beef intake on CVD risk factors in adults.
Novel non-HDLc/HDLc ratio for predicting MASLD: a cross-sectional study in a Chinese health screening population.
BMC Gastroenterol
November 2024
Infectious Disease Department, Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Foshan, Guangdong Province, China.
Background: Previous studies have shown a positive correlation between the non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(non-HDLc/HDLc ratio) and metabolism-associated steatohepatitis (MASLD), suggesting it is a superior predictor of MASLD.The aim of this study is to assess the predictive value of the non-HDLc/HDLc ratio for MASLD.
Methods: In this study, we retrospectively analyzed data from 4,498 adult patients at the Health Management Centre of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Integrative Medicine, regardless of gender, and the diagnostic criteria for MASLD were derived from guidelines.
The breadth and impact of the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium.
Curr Opin Lipidol
November 2024
Department of Biostatistics, Boston University School of Public Health, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Purpose Of Review: This review highlights contributions of the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium (GLGC) in advancing the understanding of the genetic etiology of blood lipid traits, including total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and non-HDL cholesterol. We emphasize the consortium's collaborative efforts, discoveries related to lipid and lipoprotein biology, methodological advancements, and utilization in areas extending beyond lipid research.
Recent Findings: The GLGC has identified over 923 genomic loci associated with lipid traits through genome-wide association studies (GWASs), involving more than 1.
