The Plurimetabolic Syndrome: qualitative lipoprotein abnormalities and atherosclerosis
No full textHypercholesterolemia with increased LDL-C levels is associated with higher risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, over 50% of patients with CAD do not present with increased plasma LDL-C, but their lipoprotein profile is rather characterized by qualitative lipoprotein abnormalities such as LDL particles that are small, dense and more atherogenic, mild hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL-C, particularly HDL2-C. This lipoprotein profile is often found in patients with insulin resistance and increased intra-abdominal adipose tissue, hallmarks of the plurimetabolic syndrome. Smaller, denser LDL particles are more susceptible to oxidative modifications. Oxidized LDL are potent inflammatory agents when they reach the sub-endothelial space. In addition, low levels of HDL2-C may be a marker of an impaired reverse cholesterol transport. Indeed, this lipid profile is associated with a three- to six-fold increased risk of both cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. It is interesting to..

IDENTIFICAZIONE E VALUTAZIONE DEI SOGGETTI A RISCHIO DI OSTEOPOROSI. ASPETTI EPIDEMIOLOGICI
No full textBenefits of the Mediterranean Diet in the Elderly Patient
No full textThis book illustrates the role of Mediterranean diet in connection with well-being and particularly its impact on health and elderly care, as well as on the mechanisms of aging.
Aging is a natural process of human life. The knowledge that a healthy dietary regimen like the Mediterranean diet can effectively prevent or delay many diseases typically affecting aging people may help to better manage the aging process. From this point of view, knowledge of the numerous benefits of the Mediterranean-style diet may effectively promote better management of the burden of elderly care.
As early as the 1950s, Ancel Keys pointed out the effectiveness of the Mediterranean diet in helping to control, and possibly avoid, myocardial infarction and/or cholesterol metabolism. Quite soon after the first studies were published, it became clear that the Mediterranean diet was beneficial not only in connection with cardiovascular disease but also many other diseases, from diabetes to hypertension, from cancer and thrombosis to neurodegenerative diseases, including dementia.
Examining those benefits in detail, this book offers a valuable educational tool for young professionals and caregivers, as well as for students and trainees in Geriatrics and Nutrition
