  • Title: [Alcohol and lipid metabolism].
    Author: Haller H, Jaross W, Hanefeld M.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1981 Aug 15; 36(16):552-7. PubMed ID: 7027650.
    Abstract:
    Alcohol has a direct and/or indirect influence on the fat metabolism, evoking a HLP and this again may lead to secondary defects. Liver defects, pancreatitis, haemolytic conditions may be the sequel of the alcohol as well as of the HLP. When a HLP, particularly of type IV. is present, these statements demand a careful alcohol anamnesis. A control after absolute alcohol abstinence is necessary. If within a few days the HLP shows tendencies to involution, the alcohol can be proved as pathogenetic factor. The exclusion of the noxa is of decisive therapeutic importance and often spares a little effective and loaded with side-effects pharmacotherapy.
