Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are growing problems among children and adolescents. There are no reports of changes in the activity of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) in children and adolescents with metabolic syndrome especially after supplementation with extract fromAronia melanocarpa. Materials studied included plasma and erythrocytes isolated from peripheral blood of patients with MetS and healthy subjects. We have estimated the following parameters: acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) activity, lipid peroxidation and lipids levels in plasma, and erythrocytes membrane. In patients with MetS, a significant increase in AChE and BChE activity, higher LDL-cholesterol and triacylglycerol levels, and lower HDL-cholesterol level were observed. Supplementation withA. melanocarpaextract resulted in mild but statistically significant reduction of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triacylglycerol levels and caused an increase in HDL-cholesterol level and a decrease in lipid peroxidation in plasma patients with MetS. Additionally, a decrease in lipid peroxidation and cholesterol level and a decrease in AChE activity in the erythrocyte membranes after supplementation withA. melanocarpawere noted. Summarizing, an increase in AChE and BChE activity and disruption of lipid metabolism in patients with MetS were observed. After supplementation of MetS patients withA. melanocarpaextract, a decrease in AChE activity and oxidative stress was noted.

Our aim was to evaluate lipid peroxidation, expressed as thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), nitric oxide metabolites (nitrite + nitrate) expressed asNOx, and TBARS/NOxratio in a group of subjects with metabolic syndrome (MS). In this regard we enrolled 106 subjects with MS defined according to the IDF criteria, subsequently subdivided into diabetic (DMS) and nondiabetic (NDMS) and also into subjects with a low triglycerides/HDL-cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) index or with a high TG/HDL-C index. In the entire group and in the four subgroups of MS subjects we found an increase in TBARS andNOxlevels and a decrease in TBARS/NOxratio in comparison with normal controls. Regarding all these parameters no statistical difference between DMS and NDMS was evident, but a significant increase inNOxwas present in subjects with a high TG/HDL-C index in comparison with those with a low index. In MS subjects we also found a negative correlation between TBARS/NOxratio and TG/HDL-C index. Considering the hyperactivity of the inducible NO synthase in MS, these data confirm the altered redox and inflammatory status that characterizes the MS and suggest a link between lipid peroxidation, inflammation, and insulin resistance, evaluated as TG/HDL-C index.

Background: Although the prevalence of abdominal obesity and metabolic syndrome has been widely studied in the adult population, little is known about it in children and adolescents especially in developing countries. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of abdominal obesity and metabolic syndrome among children and adolescents in Yazd Greater Area, Iran; over the period of 2016-2017. Methods: This study was part of a larger national study with a cross-sectional design. Using multistage cluster random sampling method, 1035 children, and adolescents of both sexes aged 6-18 yr were randomly selected from rural and urban districts in Yazd Greater Area, Iran. Components of metabolic syndrome, and anthropometry measured in the standard situation. Results: The prevalence of abdominal obesity in children 6-10 yr old was 13.2% in boys versus 24.7% in girls. The overall prevalence of metabolic syndrome according to International Diabetes Federation (IDF) criteria in adolescents aged 10-18 yr old was 7.6% (9.4% in boys). The most prevalent metabolic syndrome components were low HDL-cholesterol (56.2%) and abdominal obesity (27.8%). Conclusion: Comparatively, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Yazd is high. Low HDL-cholesterol levels and abdominal obesity were the most common component, and family history of heart disease, BMI, and male gender were the main determinants of metabolic syndrome in adolescents.

Perimenopausal women is at risk of atherosclerosis as a result of the increase of LDL cholesterol level and the decrease of HDL cholesterol level.  Soy milk powder consumption may protect toward these risk factors. This purpose of study is to investigate the effects of 2x30 g/d soy milk flour for eight weeks on serum cholesterol LDL and HDL levels in hypercholesterolemic perimenopausal women. The 19 subjects received 2x30 g/d soy milk powder for eight weeks. LDL and HDL serum cholesterol levels were determined at 0, 4, 9 weeks. Dietary intakes were assesed using 1x24 hours food recall. Statistical analysis used t Test. After eight weeks intervention, Soy milk powder decreases significant (p0.05) LDL cholesterol levels at the 4th  week (8.59±17.31%), and the8th week (7.81±11.32%). Soy milk powder can’t increase HDL cholesterol levels at the 4th and 8th weeks significantly.  Soy milk decrease significant the ratio of LDL to HDL (7,03±16,82%) at the 4th week. Consuming soy milk powder 2 x 30 g/d during eight weeks can reduce the LDL cholesterol level and LDL/HDL ratio significantly.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of purple sweet potato (PSP) yogurt on thelipid profile of Sprague Dawley rats. The PSP yogurt was made from fresh PSP (F-PSP) and its powder (P-PSP).The viscosity, pH, total titratable acid, proximate, antioxidant activity, anthocyanin content, and total lacticacid bacteria (LAB) between those yogurts were compared. Selected yogurt was given to Sprague Dawley ratsfor 4 weeks. Serum lipid profiles were determined after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment. F-PSP yogurt has betterphysical, chemical and microbiological properties compared to P-PSP yogurt. The serum cholesterol andtriglyceride levels in F-PSP yogurt group was not significantly different compared to control group (P>0.05).However, the reduction of serum LDL cholesterol in F-PSP yogurt group was significantly higher than controlgroup. The serum HDL cholesterol in the yogurt group decreased after 2 weeks of treatment, but it increasedafter 4 weeks of treatment. F-PSP yogurt could be used as an alternative functional food that could lower theblood cholesterol level because of the ability to reduce the LDL cholesterol level.

ABSTRACTBackground: Studies which investigated different risk for cardiovascular disease in vegetarian reported that each vegetarian diet type had different lipid serum level. Elevated LDL cholesterol level and reduced HDL cholesterol level are independent risk factors for coronary heart disease. This study was aimed to compare levels on LDL and HDL cholesterol between vegetarian vegan and non-vegan.Methods: Two groups of vegetarian women, 23 people in each group of vegan and non-vegan, participated in this cross-sectional study. The data taken of each subject were nutrient intakes (total fat, PUFA, MUFA, SFA, cholesterol, and total fiber), physical activity, body weight, height, LDL and HDL cholesterol serum levels. Data were analyzed by Shapiro-Wilk test, independent-t test, Mann-Whitney test and ANACOVA test.Results: There were no significant differences on LDL and HDL cholesterol serum levels between vegetarian vegan and non-vegan, both before and after variables i.e age, physical activity, body mass index (BMI), amount of total fat, PUFA, MUFA, SFA, cholesterol, and total fiber adjusted (p > 0,05). LDL cholesterol levels for vegetarian vegan and non-vegan were respectively: 97,8 ± 54,87 mg/dl and 112,6 ± 36,03 mg/dl, while for HDL cholesterol, those levels were 54,9 ± 11,15 mg/dl and 55,2 ± 10,82 mg/dl. In multivariant analysis, the most influential variables on LDL cholesterol serum level were age (p = 0,001) and physical activity (p = 0,010), while for HDL serum cholesterol were BMI (p = 0,010) and total fat (p = 0,012). This study also found the significant difference of BMI between vegetarian vegan and non-vegan (p = 0,011), whose for each of groups’ BMI, were respectively: 20,9 ± 3,08 kg/m2 and 23,5 ± 3,53 kg/m2. Conclusion: LDL and HDL cholesterol serum levels are not different between vegetarian vegan and non-vegan. BMI of both groups is different. Age and physical activity affect on LDL serum cholesterol level, while BMI and total fat affect on HDL serum cholesterol level. LDL cholesterol serum level and BMI in vegetarian vegan  are lower than non-vegan. Key words: Vegetarian diet, vegan, non-vegan, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol

Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate associations between psychosocial work exposure and the presence of biological and imaging biomarkers of cardiovascular disease. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in a sub-cohort of the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS). Psychosocial exposure was evaluated with the job demand–control model, and analysed according to the standard categorization: high strain, active, passive and low strain (reference). Biomarkers (blood pressure, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, coronary artery calcification (CAC) and metabolic syndrome) were measured, or derived through measurements, from clinical examinations. Gender-specific prevalence ratios (PRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with regression models and adjusted for age, education, smoking, physical activity, general life stress and body mass index (BMI). Results: The analyses included 3882 participants (52.5% women). High strain (high demands–low control) was linked to increased PR for low HDL cholesterol in women, adjusted for all covariates (PR 1.76; 95% CI 1.25–2.48). High strain was also related to moderately increased PR for metabolic syndrome in men, after adjustments for all covariates except BMI (PR 1.25; 95% CI 1.02–1.52). In addition, passive work (low demands–low control) was associated with diastolic hypertension in women (fully adjusted: PR 1.29; 95% CI 1.05–1.59). All relationships between psychosocial factors and LDL cholesterol or CAC (both genders), or hypertension (men), were non-significant. Conclusions: Poor psychosocial job conditions was associated with the presence of low HDL cholesterol and diastolic hypertension in women, and metabolic syndrome in men. These findings contribute to the knowledge of potential pathways between stressful work and coronary heart disease.

 The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of fruits extracts (Ficus hispida) on serum lipids and antioxidant status in hypercholesterolaemic rats. Hyperlipidemia was induced by feeding high fat diet for 28 days and was evidenced by elevated levels of serum triglycerides (TG), serum LDL cholesterol and decreased serum HDL cholesterol. Oxidative stress was measured by determining the activity of antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and amount of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in liver homogenate of experimental rats. In hypercholesterolaemic rats, crude methanolic extract (CME) consumption had no effect on HDL-cholesterol, yet it showed a marked hypolipidaemic action, decreasing TG and LDL-cholesterol that had been increased after consuming the high-cholesterol diet. On the other hand, the concentration of TBARS decreased significantly, indicating decreased lipid peroxidation. In addition, the activities of catalase and SOD increased significantly in liver homogenate. The above evidence suggested that CME of the fruits of this plant can be a source of natural antioxidant that can reduce the plasma lipid (cholesterol) level and also decreases the lipid peroxidation.

Elevated triglycerides are now considered an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD), even apart from elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. While the primary lipid target for CHD risk management remains LDL cholesterol, the treatment of elevated triglycerides is now also recommended. Elevated triglycerides are believed to increase cardiovascular risk because certain triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, called remnant lipoproteins (partially degraded chylomicrons and very-low density lipoproteins (VLDL)), are atherogenic. Hypertri-glyceridemia, together with low levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and an increased prevalence of small, dense LDL particles, comprise a triad of lipid risk factors known as atherogenic dyslipidemia.The significance of hypertriglyceridemia as a cardiovascular risk factor is further highlighted by its inclusion as a component of the metabolic syndrome, a cluster of metabolic abnormalities, related to insulin resistance. The other criteria for metabolic syndrome include low HDL cholesterol, central obesity, elevated blood pressure, and abnormal fasting glucose. The metabolic syndrome is recognized as a major risk factor not only for premature CHD but also for type 2 diabetes mellitus.
