ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the association of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) level with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients with early-onset type 2 diabetes.Methods:The clinical data of 100 patients with early-onset type 2 diabetes who were admitted to Beijing Chaoyang Diabetes Hospital from June 2008 to June 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into a NAFLD group and a non-NAFLD group, with 50 patients in each group, according to the presence or absence of NAFLD. Clinical data, biochemical indices [blood lipids, blood glucose, liver function, uric acid, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein], and glycosylated hemoglobin were collected. Body mass index and non-HDL-C levels were recorded. The association of non-HDL-C level with NAFLD in patients with early-onset type 2 diabetes was analyzed using logistic regression analysis. The predictive value and optimal cut-off point of non-HDL-C for early-onset T2 diabetes complicated by NAFLD were evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic curve.Results:Body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure in the NAFLD group were (28.55 ± 3.47) kg/m 2, (0.94 ± 0.05), (121.00 ± 10.25) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa), and (80.00 ± 8.51) mmHg respectively, which were significantly higher than (23.95 ± 2.87) kg/m 2, (0.90 ± 0.07), (115.20 ± 13.36) mmHg, and (73.70 ± 7.75) mmHg in the non-NAFLD group ( t = -7.23, -3.11, -2.44, -3.87, all P < 0.05). Non-HDL-C, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase, uric acid, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and glycosylated hemoglobin levels in the NAFLD group were (4.88 ± 3.01) mmol/L, (6.33 ± 3.23) mmol/L, (4.50 ± 6.03) mmol/L, (3.27 ± 1.26) mmol/L, (39.80 ± 23.58) U/L, (27.72 ± 13.83) U/L, (52.96 ± 46.16) U/L, (350.32 ± 102.12) μmol/L, (1.26 ± 0.88) mg/L, and (9.3 ± 2.5)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than (3.35 ± 1.03) mmol/L, (4.81±1.24) mmol/L, (1.87 ± 2.29) mmol/L, (2.70 ± 0.71) mmol/L, (23.76 ± 13.45) U/L, (21.98 ± 10.13) U/L, (35.24 ± 35.41) U/L, (296.04 ± 88.26) μmol/L, (0.22 ± 1.54) mg/L, (8.2 ± 2.7)% in the non-NAFLD group ( t = -3.40, -3.11, -2.88, -2.81, -4.18, -2.36, -2.14, -2.85, -4.12, -2.08, all P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the increase in non-HDL-C level was an independent risk factor for T2 diabetes mellitus complicated by NAFLD ( OR = 3.064, 95% CI: 1.604-5.852, P = 0.001). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis results showed that the optimal cut-off point, sensitivity, and specificity of non-HDL-C level to predict NAFLD were 3.60 mmol/L, 0.700, and 0.620 respectively. Conclusion:An increase in non-HDL-C level is an independent risk factor for NAFLD complicated by early-onset type 2 diabetes When non-HDL-C is > 3.60 mmol/L, NAFLD can be predicted.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the relationship between non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and bone mass in different body parts in the physical examination population.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. The data of 595 physical examiners who visited the Institute of Health Management, PLA General Hospital from June to September 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The bone mass levels of lumbar 1-4 vertebral body (spine) and femur, average bone density were measured by double light energy X-ray bone density instrument. The basic information and biochemical indices of the physical examiners were collected. The difference between blood lipid components (including Non-HDL-C) and bone mass level of each body part were analyzed.Results:According to blood lipid stratification, there were significant differences in spine T value (T-spine) between triglyceride (TG) groups (-0.15±1.41 vs -0.38±1.3), Non-HDL-C groups (-1.01±0.74 vs -1.21±0.59, -1.04±0.73 vs -1.30±0.45,-1.07±0.71 vs -1.30±0.26) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) groups (-1.01±0.71 vs -1.32±0.56)(all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in other lipid groups and femoral T values in each component′s blood lipids. The T-spine decreased significantly in the LDL-C≥3.4 mmol/L group, and the differences were all significant among the Non-HDL-C group (all P<0.05). In binary logistic regression analysis, LDL-C≥3.4 mmol/L ( OR=3.961,95% CI:1.310-11.974) and Non-HDL-C>4.1 mmol/L ( OR=3.600,95% CI:1.035-12.524) were risk factors for vertebral bone mass loss (both P<0.05). Conclusion:People with elevated serum TG, Non-HDL-C and LDL-C in the physical examination population are prone to bone abnormalities. Non-HDL-C≥4.1 mmol/L and LDL-C≥3.4 mmol/L are more closely related to the vertebral bone mass loss and are the risk factors for vertebral bone mass loss.
ABSTRACT
Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) has been recommended as the primary treatment target on lipid management in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients for several decades. However, even by aggressive LDL-C lowering treatment, patients still present a significant residual risk of major adverse cardiovascular events. Non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) contained all the atherogenic lipoproteins. Non-HDL-C is superior to LDL-C for the prediction of cardiovascular events and has many other compelling advantages over LDL-C and other traditional lipid parameters. This review mainly discusses the definition and test advantages of non-HDL-C, the predictive value of non-HDL-C, recommended value of non-HDL-C goals, and related guideline recommendations of non-HDL-C.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of typical hot spring bathing of Guizhou Province on dyslipidemia, which could provide scientific basis for clarifying the physiotherapy effect of hot springs. Methods The typical hot spring sites of three main types(hydrothermal hot spring, warm mineral hot spring and metasilicate hot spring)in Guizhou Province were selected as investigation sites. 189 residents with hyperlipidemia near the investigation sites were selected as subjects and were treated with hot spring baths for 4 weeks, once a day, 5 times a week and 40-50 minutes each time. The age and gender distribution of the subjects were obtained by a questionnaire. The levels of TC, TG, LDL-C and HDL-C in serum were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer at baseline and at the end of hot spring baths. The differences of the three kinds of hot spring baths on improvement rate of dyslipidemia, the changes of abnormal blood lipid indexes and their improvement rates were compared. Results After baths of hydrothermal hot springs, warm mineral hot springs and metasilicate hot springs, the improvement rates of abnormally elevated lipids were 15.6%, 40.4% and 47.9%, respectively. The improvement rates of abnormally elevated lipids after baths of warm mineral hot springs and metasilicate hot springs were significantly higher than that after hydrothermal spring baths(all P < 0.05). Compared with before hot spring bathing, the levels of TC, TG, LDL-C and non-HDL-C in serum significantly decreased in all three kinds of hot springs. Moreover, the degree of decrease of TG in serum and the improvement rate of abnormal TG after baths of warm mineral spring and metasilicate hot spring were significantly higher than that after hydrothermal spring baths. The degree of decrease of LDL-C in serum and the improvement rate of abnormal LDL-C after baths of metasilicate hot spring were significantly higher than that after baths of hydrothermal spring and warm mineral spring(all P < 0.05). Conclusion The three types of typical hot spring baths in Guizhou Province can mitigate the elevation of blood lipid. Compared with hydrothermal spring, warm mineral spring and metasilicate hot spring may have better improvement effect on blood lipid elevation due to their more significant improvement effect on abnormal elevation of TG and LDL-C in serum.
ABSTRACT
This study aimed to explore the association between serum non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and cognitive dysfunction risk in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). This cross-sectional study enrolled 583 AIS patients. Biochemical markers and lipid profile were collected after admission. AIS patients were classified into high group (non-HDL-C ≥3.4 mM) and normal group (non-HDL-C <3.4 mM). Mini-Mental State Examination scale (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment scale (MoCA), Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale, Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), and Hamilton Depression scale 21 version (HAMD-21) were applied on the third day after admission. Compared with the control group, patients of the high group had higher body mass index and higher frequency of intracranial artery stenosis, and exhibited higher levels of non-HDL-C, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, homocysteine, fasting blood glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and lower levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (all P<0.05). Compared with the control group, patients of the high group had significantly lower MMSE and MoCA scores (MMSE: 26.01±4.17 vs 23.12±4.73, P<0.001; MoCA: 22.28±5.28 vs 20.25±5.87, P<0.001) and higher scores on the NPI and HAMD-21 (both P<0.001). MMSE (r=-0.306, P<0.001) and MoCA scores (r=-0.251, P<0.001) were negatively associated with non-HDL-C level. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that non-HDL-C level (OR=1.361, 95%CI: 1.059-1.729, P=0.016) was independently associated with the presence of cognitive dysfunction after adjusting for confounding factors. High serum non-HDL-C level might significantly increase the risk of cognitive dysfunction after AIS.

Objective To evaluate the value of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and non-high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (non-HDL-C) in differential diagnosis of familial hypertriglyceridemia (FHTG) and familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL).Methods We recruited 9 FHTG pedigrees (94 subjects) and 24 FCHL pedigrees (94 subjects) and then divided them into affected groups and non-affected groups according to lipid abnormality.Another 10 normal control pedigrees (57 subjects) served as controls.We compared the routine lipid levels such as triglyceride (TAG),total cholesterol (TC),HDL-C and LDL-C and non-HDL-C between the groups.After stratification based on TAG level,we observed the relationship between LDL-C and non-HDL-C.Last we confirmed and analyzed the cut-off value of differential diagnosis between FHTG and FCHL with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results The levels of TAG,TC,and non-HDL-C were significantly higher in the affected group of FHTG than in the non-affected group of FHTG and the normal group (P＜0.01 or P＜0.05).The levels of TAG,TC,HDL-C,LDL-C and non-tHDL-C wcrc significantly higher in the affected group of FCHL than in the non-affected group of FCHL and the normal group (P＜0.01 or P＜0.05).The levels of TAG were significantly higher (P＜0.01) while TC,HDL-C,LDL-C and non-HDL-C levels were significantly lower (P＜ 0.01 or P＜0.05) in the affected group of FHTG than in the affected group of FCHL.The association between LDL-C and non-HDL-C was positive both in FHTG and FCHL,but the relationship became weaker as TAG level increased.The cut-off value of LDL-C and non-HDL-C was 3.575 mmol/L and 4.525 mmol/L,respectively.Conclusion In addition to the routinely used lipid indexes,non-HDL-C may be a new index for differential diagnosis of FHTG and FCHL,and may be superior to LDL-C in this regard.
ABSTRACT
Introduction: The reduction of cardiovascular risk by lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is well documented, and LDL-C remains the main target of lipid lowering therapy. However, not all patients with cardiovascular risk have elevated LDL-C. There is growing recognition that non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (Non-HDL-C) is strongly related to cardiovascular risk. Aim: This study was done to evaluate the importance of Non-HDL C in predicting cardiovascular risk in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Methods: 100 type 2 diabetic patients were taken as subjects. Fasting and post meal blood sugar, lipid profile, and Non-HDL C was analysed in these patients. The patients were divided in two groups depending on their Non- HDL C level; ≤ 130 mg/dl and > 130mg/dl. Result and discussion: In this study it was seen that, age <60 years, being female, BMI >25 kg/m2 and LDL cholesterol >100mg/dl were associated with having Non-HDL cholesterol >130mg/dl. Conclusion: The results showed positive correlation between Non-HDL and LDL cholesterol. It also showed significant non achievement of Non-HDL cholesterol targets of ≤ 130mg/dl even if LDL cholesterol targets were achieved i.e. <100mg/dl suggesting the importance of measuring Non –HDL Cholesterol to predict the risk of cardiovascular disease in type 2 diabetes.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the correlation between non high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HLD-C)and cardi-ac function in patients with coronary heart disease (heart disease cardiac,CHD).Methods 162 patients with CHD were se-lected as the experimental group of CHD,100 cases of healthy physical examination qualified as the normal control group. CHD experimental group was divided into mild impairment group and severe impairment group according to the degree of impairment of the heart function.The mild impairment group include I and II levels of cardiac function classification and the severe impairment group included III and IV levels of cardiac function classification.To measure separately total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),and to calculate the content of non high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C).To compare the differences between CHD ex-perimental group and normal control group,and the correlation between different indexes of blood lipid and the degree of loss of cardiac function.Results The serum levels of non-HDL-C,TG and LDL in the Cardiac function in mild damage group of the CHD experimental group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group,and there were statistically significant differences between the two groups(t=2.438,2.887,5.253,P<0.05).The serum levels of non-HDL-C,TG and LDL in the severe heart function impairment group of the CHD experimental group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group,and there were statistically significant differences between the two groups (t=2.438,2.887,5.253,P<0.05).The serum level of HDL in the cardiac function in mild damage group of the CHD experimental group was significantly lower than that in the normal control group (t=-3.132,P<0.05).The serum level of HDL in the severe heart function impairment group of the CHD experimental group was significantly lower than that in the normal control group (t=-6.028,P<0.05).In the CHD group,only the serum level of TC in the severe impairment group was signifi-cantly different from that in the control group (t=3.278,P<0.05).The serum levels of non-HDL-C,TG,LDL of mild im-pairment of cardiac function in the CHD experimental group were significantly different from the serum levels of the severe impairment group (t=2.051,2.057,2.281,P<0.05).Logistic regression analysed that the OR value of serum non-HDL-C in CHD group was slightly lower than that of LDL,and significantly higher than TC and TG.With the increase of the degree of cardiac function,the value of OR increased significantly.Conclusion Serum non-HDL-C had a positive correlation with severity of CHD.To a certain extent,it can reflect the severity of CHD and is an important reference index for clinical diag-nosis and treatment of CHD.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the lipid levels of Han ethnicity Chinese children at school-age,to provide objective data for the formulation of prevention and management strategy regarding dyslipidemia among children and adolescents.Methods 20 191 children (with 10 669 boys and 9522 girls) aged 7 to 16 years old from 6 representative geographical areas,including Beijing,Tianjin,Hangzhou,Shanghai,Chongqing and Nanning,were surveyed in a randomly selected clustered sample in China.Data on fasting blood triglyceride (TG),total cholesterol (TC),lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were measured.Non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) levels were calculated with data collection,entry,and collation were under the same criteria.Results (1) In the 7-16 year-old group,TG (P95) fluctuated between 1.26 mmol/L and 1.88 mmol/L,while TC (P95) was between 4.80 mmol/L and 5.46 mmol/L.LDL-C(P95) was between 2.67 mmol/L and 3.27 mmol/L while non-HDL-C (P95) was between 3.36 mmol/L and 3.91mmol/L,sugesting that age did not seem to be an affecting factor for the lipid level (P＞0.05).The level of HDL-C (P5) fluctuated bctwcen 1.08 mmol/L and 0.83 mmol/L,and the dependability analysis on HDL-C and age showed statistically significant difference (P＜0.01,r=-0.274).(2) In the 7-9 year-old group,the levels ofTG,TC,LDL-C and non-HDL-C of boys were lower but the HDL-C level was higher than in girls.However,in the 10-16 year-old group,the levels of five lipids of boys were all lower than in girls,with all the differences statistically significant (P＜0.05).(3) The levels of TG,TC,LDL-C and non-HDL-C in the obese group were significantly higher than those in non-obesity group,as HDL-C was significantly lower than in non-obese group(P＜0.01).Incidence rates of single and multiple dyslipidemia in obese group were significantly higher than in non-obese group (P＜0.01).(4) Grouped by region,the abnormal rates of TG were descending,with the ranking as North (10.4％),Midwest (9.7％) and East (8.3％),while the abnormal rates of TC were descending with the ranking as Midwest (6.0％),North (5.2％)and East (4.8％).The abnormal rates of LDL-C were descending as the ranking of North (3.1％),East (2.6％) and Midwest (0.9％),with the abnormal rates of non-HDL-C were descending as Midwest (6.5％),North(4.2％)and East (3.6％).The abnormal rates of HDL-C were descending as Midwess (14.2％),North(5.7％) and East(5.5％).All the differences in the above-said items were statistically significant (P＜0.05).(5) According to the standards of hyperlipidemia formulated by the American Academy of Pediatrics,the incidence rates of abnormal TG,TC,LDL-C,non-HDL-C,HDL-C were 9.4％,5.4％,2.2％,4.8％,8.6％ respectively.Conclusion (1) Levels of lipids were affected by many factors,but age was not one of them in children and adolescents.However,HDL-C was declining along with the increase of age,to some extent.(2)Girls had a relatively protective tendency through the increasing HDL-C level when they entered the puberty years.(3)Lipids levels in non-obese group were significantly better than the obese group.(4)The lipids levels of children and adolescents in the Eastern region of the country were better than that in the northern and mid-western areas.
ABSTRACT
The study of 295 patients with T2DM and 336 healthy subjects was carried out and three diabetic sub-groups of DM with high total cholesterol(H-TC),DM with high triglyceride(H-TG) and H-TC plus H-TG were set.The results showed that the level of non-HDL-C was increased in all three groups of H-TC,H-TG,and H-TC plus H-TG(all P
