Title: [Disturbances of metabolism of high density lipoproteins in patients with ischemic stroke]. Author: Aĭtbaev KA. Journal: Vopr Med Khim; 1982; 28(6):48-50. PubMed ID: 6961612. Abstract: In patients with ischemic insult at the age of 51-75 years content of high density lipoproteins (HDL) cholesterol and the ratio of HDL cholesterol to total blood serum cholesterol were distinctly decreased, as well as the cholesterol index of atherogenicity was markedly higher as compared with controls. Decrease in the content of HDL, detected by concentration of HDL cholesterol and the cholesterol index of atherogenicity, is apparently the only pattern, demonstrating the impairment of lipoprotein spectrum in the patients with ischemic insult in the age group older than 50 years. Estimation of the HDL cholesterol might serve as an effective monitoring index of treatment and prophylaxis under conditions of ischemic insult.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
