In vivo metabolism of LDL subfractions in patients with heterozygous FH on statin therapy
2004
LDL can be subfractionated into buoyant (1.020-1.029 g/ml(-1)), intermediate (1.030-1.040 g/ml(-1)), and dense (1.041-1.066 g/ml(-1)) LDLs. We studied the rebound of these LDL-subfractions after LDL apheresis in seven patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) regularly treated by apheresis (58 +/- 9 years, LDL-cholesterol = 342 +/- 87 mg/dl(-1), triglycerides = 109 +/- 39 mg/dl(-1)) and high-dose statins. Apolipoprotein B (apoB) concentrations were measured in LDL subfractions immediately after and on days 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 after apheresis. Compartmental models were developed to test three hypotheses: 1) that dense LDLs are derived from the delipidation of buoyant and in…
Association of child maltreatment subtypes and long-term physical health in a German representative sample
2018
ABSTRACT Background: Child maltreatment is a major public problem, associated with enormous consequences on the individual and socioeconomic level. Studies show a clear impact of child maltreatment on long-term physical health. However, there is a lack of analyses comprising a wide variety of subtypes of maltreatment and addressing cumulative effects of different maltreatment subtypes experienced during childhood on physical health. Objective: The objective of this analysis was to assess the association of different subtypes and the intensity of child maltreatment with long-term physical health outcomes. Methods: In a cross-sectional observational approach, a representative sample of the Ge…
Nieru audzēju klīniski morfoloģiskais raksturojums
2020
Saslimstība ar ļaundabīgajiem nieru audzējiem palielinās katru gadu, visizteiktāk tas vērojams pasaules attīstītajās valstīs, kā arī Latvijā. Nieru šūnu karcinoma ir viens no visbiežākajiem ļaundabīgajiem nieru audzējiem. Agrīnajās stadijās nieru šūnu karcinomai nav raksturīga kāda konkrēta simptomātika un lielākajā daļā gadījumu, tā tiek diagnosticēta netīši- veicot izmeklējumus kādas citas saslimšanas gadījumā. Pēc tam, kad audzējs ir ticis diagnosticēts, ir būtiski izvērtēt pacienta vispārējo stāvokli un riska faktorus, no kā ir atkarīga pacientu kopējā dzīvildze un recidīva risks. Ja iespējams, noteikt histoloģisko nieru šūnu karcinomas subtipu un ņemot vērā šos faktorus, izvēlēties pie…
