Article Synopsis
- Some lipoprotein disorders linked to premature cardiovascular disease (PCVD) are not identified by standard lipid tests.
- A case-control study involving 125 PCVD patients and 190 controls assessed the predictive value of serum small dense LDL cholesterol (sdLDL-C) and other lipoprotein characteristics using advanced techniques like nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).
- PCVD patients exhibited lower total LDL particles but higher levels of sdLDL-C and specific triglycerides, revealing that these factors are strong predictors of PCVD, highlighting the need for more detailed lipoprotein analysis beyond conventional profiles.
Immunoglobulin E levels and risk of lymphoma in a case-control study in Spain.
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev
July 2007
Epidemiology and Cancer Registry Unit, Institut Català d' Oncologia, Gran Via km 2.7, 08907 L' Hospitalet de Ll., Barcelona, Spain.
Epidemiologic studies have shown an inverse association between atopy and malignant lymphoma, but results are inconsistent. We investigated levels of IgE, before and after commencement of treatment, and evaluated lymphoma risk in relation to total and specific IgE levels. Serum levels of IgM, IgA, and IgG were also measured.
