Background: A sedentary lifestyle is associated with cardiometabolic risk factors and obesity. This study aims to investigate the effects of regular exercise training, acute exercise, and a sedentary lifestyle on levels of miRNA-33, miRNA-335, miRNA-370, miRNA-758, which...
Objective: In addition to important roles of vitamin D on regulation of bone and mineral metabolism, recent studies have shown that Vitamin D is necessary for many biological actions. The aim of this study was to determine whether Vit D levels have any effects on lipid...
Objective: Subclinical and cli nical hypothyroidism are relatively common endocrine disorders in the general population. Subclinical hypothyroidism is defined as an elevated serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) level associated with normal total or free T4 (fT4) and T3...
Objective: The prevalence of coronary artery disease is much higher in men than in women and sex hormones might play a role in these differences via their influence on lipid profile. However, the role of sex hormones in the relationship between male gender and cardiovascular...
Aim: To investigate the presence of oxidative stress and dyslipidemia, which increase cardiovascular risk, and the effect of gonadotropin replacement therapy on these parameters in patients with Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism (IHH).
Material and...
Objective: Stroke, in all over the world, the one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality especially in the geriatric population. Oxidative stress has an important role in pathophysiology of ischemic stroke. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is an important parameter of...
Objectives: Despite various studies on the effect of thyroid status on insulin sensitivity in recent years, there are conflicting data. Thyroid dysfunction leads to changes in glucose and lipid metabolism, which is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. For this...
Aim: Oxysterols are derivatives of cholesterol which are formed by oxidation through numerous chemical reactions and play an important role in many physiological processes and in various degenerative and metabolic diseases, lipid metabolism disorders. In this study, analytical...
Objective: HDL is considered as anti-atherogenic and it exerts this effect with reverse cholesterol transport and with the contribution of enzymes such as paraoxonase and platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase. Data on biological variation can be used to determine the...
