... mg/dL) but has not been investigated in TS. We aim to evaluate non-HDL-C patterns in a cohort of pediatric and young adult females with TS. Methods: A retrospective chart review was used to obtain demographics, body composition, genetic reports, and lipid profiles in females with TS. Results: Lipid...

...: Cardiovascular risk is increased in obese children and adolescents. There is a strong need to monitor blood pressure and serum lipids in this group of patients. Our results emphasize the importance of prevention of obesity in order to reduce cardiovascular risk. 5 04 2011 22 09 2011 22 11 2011...

... visfatin levels in type 1 diabetic patients and to determine the relationships between visfatin and duration of diabetes, body mass index, glycemic control, insulin dosage and lipid profile. Methods: Forty-eight patients with type 1 DM and 26 healthy controls were investigated. Results: Type 1 diabetic...

... GH dose-response trial, with 3 GH dosages (1.3, 2.0, and 2.7 mg/m 2 /day). Thirty-nine TS patients (20.0 ± 2.1 years) participated 4.8 ± 1.9 years after GH discontinuation. Mean GH treatment duration was 8.7 ± 2.0 years. Fasting glucose, insulin, and serum lipids were measured. Results: Several years...

... by specific amino acid transporter proteins. Placental lipid transport to the fetus involves direct transporter mediated transfer of certain fatty acids as well as lipid uptake from lipoproteins, metabolic alteration in the placenta, and release into the fetal plasma. Placental size, architecture...

...Michael B. Ranke GH effects certain changes in the metabolism of lipids and body water in humans. The effects of GH, such as high blood pressure, an increase in cholesterol and triglycerides, and lipoatrophy, among others, must, however, be seen in the context of the diverse disorders being treated...

... treatment, on the other hand, markedly reduced the weights of testes and seminal vesicles. This effect was more pronounced in long-term treatment. Prolactin when given alone or in combination with progesterone, brought about a marked fall in total testicular lipids and phospholipids. The depletion...

...Sultan Sheriff; P. Govindarajulu The effects of prolactin and prolactin plus progesterone (P-P) on the testes of adult rats were investigated. The weight of testes, seminal vesicle and the lipid composition of testes were studied 24 h after the administration of hormones. Prolactin treatment...

...Sultan Sheriff; P. Govindarajulu Testicular tissues obtained from 12 cases of testicular feminization syndrome were subjected to lipid analyses. The total lipids formed 2.75% of the total wet weight of the testicular tissue. Total cholesterol represented 30%, glycerides 33% and phospholipids 37...

...Sultan Sheriff; P. Govindarajulu The lipid composition of human testis in testicular and post-testicular causes of infertility was studied. The testicular causes of infertility was represented by patients with adult seminiferous tubule failure and Klinefelter’s syndrome. The post-testicular causes...

...Sultan Sheriff; P. Govindarajulu The effects of progesterone and progesterone plus oestrogen (PPO) on testicular lipids of adult rats were studied. Treatment with progesterone over 7 days did not alter significantly the total lipids, cholesterol, glycerides and phospholipids. However, PPO...
