O emprego de combinações terapêuticas contendo drogas de diferentes classes promove importante e sustentada supressão na replicação viral, levando à restauração imunológica e, consequentemente, eleva a sobrevida e a qualidade de vida das pessoas que vivem com HIV (PVH). Objetivos: a presente proposta visa analisar e caracterizar as alterações endocrinológicas e metabólicas associadas ao uso de medicamentos antirretrovirais em PVH e desenvolver algoritmos computacionais inteligentes visando sua identificação e previsão. Métodos: Trata-se de uma coorte ambidirecional de PVH, que iniciaram o uso de TARV entre 1º. de janeiro de 2003 e 31 de dezembro de 2013, com seguimento até dezembro de 2014. Recortes metodológicos foram empregados para, (1) avaliar a qualidade da base de dados, (2) estimar a densidade de incidência de alterações lipídicas e glicídicas na coorte, (3) identificar fatores associados à incidência de diabetes mellitus, e (4) desenvolver um algoritmo para predição de novos casos de diabetes mellitus. O primeiro recorte utilizou as estatísticas de kappa e coeficiente de correlação para medidas qualitativas e quantitativas de LTCD4+ e carga viral do HIV; o segundo usou estatísticas de incidência acumulada com intervalo de confiança de 95% com emprego do método de reamostragem de bootstrap e determinação da densidade de incidência por 1.000 pessoas ano usando, com cálculo de intervalo de confiança de 95% projetado com distribuição de Poisson; o terceiro utilizou a regressão de Cox e um modelo hierarquizado para estudar os fatores que influenciam no tempo até a ocorrência de diabetes mellitus e, o quarto, empregou metodologia para estruturação do sistema especialista fuzzy Sugeno, a curva ROC para estudar a acurácia do modelo comparada aos outros fatores. Resultados: 8.007 pacientes foram considerados elegíveis no primeiro recorte. A correlação geral observada para a menor contagem de LTCD4+ antes de TARV foi 0,970 (p < 0,001). Os coeficientes gerais de concordância para medidas qualitativas de contagens de LTCD4+ e para CV foram, respectivamente, 0,932 (p < 0,001) e -0,996 (p < 0,001). No caso do segundo e terceiro recorte, foram considerados 6.724 pacientes. As alterações metabólicas mais comuns foram a hipertrigliceridemia isolada 84,3 por 1000 pessoas-ano (IC95% 81,1-87,6), seguida por baixas concentrações de HDL-colesterol (HDL-c) 48,5 por 1.000 pessoas-ano (IC95% 46,1-51,1) e diabetes mellitus 17,3 por 1.000 pessoas-ano (IC95% 15,8-18,8). As variáveis mais fortemente associadas à incidência de DM foram idade 40 --\| 50 anos HR 1,7 (IC95%1,4-2,1) e >= 50 anos HR 2,4 (IC95%1,9-3,1), obesidade HR 2,1 (IC95%1,6- 2,8), razão triglicerídeos:HDL-c >= 3,5 HR 1,8 (IC95%1,51-2,2) e hiperglicemia HR 2,6 (IC95%1,7-2,5). O sistema fuzzy Sugeno teve acurácia (AUC) de 0,811 (IC95% 0,772- 0,851). Conclusões: as análises indicaram alta correlação (quantitativa) e concordância (qualitativa) entre Coorte Brasil de HIV/AIDS e o sistema informatizado SISCEL; diabetes mellitus e outros alterações metabólicas foram comuns na coorte Brasil de HIV/AIDS; a exposição a estavudina (d4T) mostrou-se fator de risco para diabetes mellitus; e o algoritmo linguístico fuzzy foi capaz de predizer novos casos de diabetes mellitus com acurácia superior à dos fatores de risco convencionais / Introduction: with the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (ART) a profound impact on the natural history of HIV infection was observed. The use of combined therapeutic regimens containing antiretroviral drugs of different classes promotes important and sustained suppression of viral replication, leading to immune restauration and increases survival and the quality of life of people living with HIV (PLWH). Objectives: This study aims to analyze and characterize the endocrinological and metabolic changes associated with the use of antiretroviral drugs in PLWH and to develop intelligent computational algorithms for their identification and prediction. Methods: this is an ambidirectional cohort of PLWH, who were started on ART between January 1, 2003 and December 31, 2013, with follow-up through December 31, 2014. Our methodological approaches aimed at (1) assessing the quality of the database, (2) estimating the incidence density of lipid and glucose changes, (3) identifying factors associated with incident diabetes mellitus, and (4) developing an algorithm for prediction of incident diabetes mellitus. For the first approach we used the kappa and correlation coefficient statistics for qualitative and quantitative measures of LTCD4 + and HIV viral load (VL); for the second we used cumulative incidence statistics with a 95% confidence interval, by means of bootstrap resampling and calculation of incidence density per 1,000 person-years with a 95% confidence interval based on the Poisson distribution; for the third we used Cox regression and a hierarchical model to investigate factors that influenced time until incidence of diabetes mellitus and, for the fourth, we used in addition to structuring the Sugeno fuzzy expert system, the ROC curve to assess the accuracy of the model as compared to other factors. Results: 8,007 patients were considered eligible for the first approach; overall observed correlation for the lower LTCD4+ count before ART was 0.970 (p < 0.001) and the general agreement coefficient for qualitative measures of LTCD4 + counts and HIV VL were 0.932 (p < 0.001) and -0.996 (p < 0.001), respectively. For the second and third approaches, 6,724 patients were considered. The most common metabolic alterations were hypertriglyceridemia, 84.3 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI 81.1-87.6), followed by low HDL-cholesterol (HDL-c) 48.5 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI 46.1-51.1) and diabetes mellitus 17.3 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI 15.8-18.8). Most strongly associated factors with incident DM were age 40 - \| 50 years HR 1.7 (95%CI 1.4-2.1) and age >= 50 years HR 2.4 (95%CI 1.9-3.1), obesity HR 2.1 (95% CI 1.6-2.8), triglyceride:HDL-c ratio >= 3.5 HR 1.8 (95% CI 1.51-2.2) and hyperglycemia HR 2.6 (95% CI 1.7-2.5). The Sugeno fuzzy system had an accuracy (AUC) of 0.811 (IC95% 0,772-0,851).

O aumento relativo na proporçao de carboidratos resulta em dislipidemia caracterizada pelo aumento das concentrações plasmáticas de TG e VLDL-C, baixas concentrações de HDL-C, razão C:HDL aumentada e, algumas vezes, a presença de partículas de LDL-C pequenas e densas.O propósito deste estudo foi avaliar o impacto do aconselhamento nutricional exclusivo em portadores de dislipidemias,verificando a resposta entre sexos e entre faixas etárias (<60 anos e = 60 anos) e a influência do tempo no tratamento (3,6 e 12 meses). Participaram do estudo 129 sujeitos, 56 homens e 73 mulheres com idade entre 20 a 73 anos sem uso de medicaçao hipolipemiante por no mínimo 30 dias antes e durante o tratamento, e com pelo menos três meses de seguimento nutricional. Para hipercolesterolemia foi orientada a restrição de gorduras saturadas (<7% do VET) e colesterol (<200 mg/dL) e, para hipertrigliceridemia a restriçao de carboidratos simples, bebidas alcoólicas e, restrição de gorduras totais (<20% do VET) para TG>300 mg/dL. Na presença de sobrepeso ou obesidade foi orientada dieta hipocalórica com redução gradativa das calorias. As concentrações de colesterol (C), LDL-C, e triglicérides (TG) foram significativamente reduzidas na população estudada em 14%, 5%, 30% respectivamente. No primeiro trabalho, em que foi avaliada a influência do tempo de aconselhamento nutricional comparado ao período basal, as respostas significativas às orientações dietéticas com três meses foram: para C (-16%), LDL-C (-0,1%) e não HDL-C (-19%); com seis meses para C (-13%), TG (-30%), LDL-C (-9%), nao HDL-C (-17%), Castelli I (-14%) e Castelli II (-4%) e, com 12 meses para C (-14%), TG (-27%) e Castelli I (-13%). As concentrações plasmáticas de HDL-C e o peso corporal não se modificaram. Entre os sexos (trabalho 2) foi observado uma redução de 16% para C e 36% para TG em homens, e de 12% para C, 12% para LDL-C, e 26% para TG nas mulheres e, entre faixa etária de 15% para C, 2% para LDL-C e 33% para TG nos adultos e 14% para C nos idosos. O aumento na concentração de HDL-C foi significativa em homens em relação às mulheres (+5% e -4 %) com hiperlipidemia mista.Todos os participantes responderam ao aconselhamento nutricional reduzindo as concentrações de C, TG, LDL-C e a nao HDL-C. O tempo de orientação dietética não modificou as respostas em lípides e lipoproteínas plasmáticos; sendo o tempo de três meses suficiente para observar os efeitos benéficos da dieta. Um maior número de parâmetros foi reduzido com seis meses indicando que a partir de sexto mês houve um efeito mais abrangente da dieta. Homens e adultos foram mais responsivos à orientação nutricional. As respostas foram maiores que os coeficientes de variação biológico para cada parâmetro avaliado exceto para LDL-C.Recomenda-se a aplicação desta experiência terapêutica positiva em outros Serviços de Saúde por se tratar de uma terapia de baixo custo podendo também contribuir na prevenção e controle de doença cardiovascular / Abstract: The strongest dietary determinants of elevated LDL cholesterol concentrations are dietary saturated fatty acid and trans fatty acid intakes to a lesser extent, dietary cholesterol and excess body weight The aim of the present study was to evaluate the responses plasma lipid to nutritional counseling on dyslipidemic outpatients and analyze their responses by gender and age and analyzing the influence of time (3, 6 and 12 months) of treatment. One-hundred and twenty nine dyslipidemic subjects i.e. 56 males and 73 females aged 20 - 73 years comprised this study. No medication was used 30 days before and during following the diet as part of the inclusion criteria. Patients with hypercholesterolemia were oriented to follow the NCEP step 2 diet, and those with hypertriglyceridemia were oriented to restrict simple carbohydrates and alcoholic beverage and, in presence of TG >300 mg/dl, to use low fat diet (=20%). After nutritional counseling plasma cholesterol (C) concentrations, LDL-C, and triglycerides (TG) were significantly reduced in the population sample by (14%, 5%, 30%), respectively. The response were significant after 3 months for C (-16%), LDL-C (-0,1%) and NHDL-C (-19%), after 6 months for C (-13%), TG (-30%), LDL-C (-9%), NHDL-C (-17%), Castelli I (-14%) and Castelli II (-4%) and, after 12 months for C (-14%), TG (-27%) and Castelli I (-13%). No change was detected in plasma HDL-cholesterol and body weight, after nutritional counseling. Between sexes plasma concentrations reduced for C and TG by 16%, and 36% in men, and by 12% and 26% and 12% for LDL-C in women, and between age by 15% to C, 2% to LDL-C and 33% to TG in middle age and, 14% for C in elderly people. HDL cholesterol concentration was significantly higher in men than in women with mixed hyperlipidemia (+5% and -4 %). All participants responded to nutritional counseling reducing C, TG, LDL-C, NHDL-C, LDL-C. The nutritional counseling time did not modify the responses of plasma lipids and lipoproteins. After 3 months, beneficial effects of the diet were observed, and the higher number of parameters were reduced after 6 month showing a broader actions of diet. Men and adults patients presented better responses to nutritional counseling. The responses to nutritional counseling were higher than coefficient biology variation for each parameter evaluated except to LDL-C. We recommend this positive experience is recommended to other Health Service because is low cost treatment and also contribute in prevention and control of risk factors for cardiovascular disease / Mestrado / Ciencias Basicas / Mestre em Clinica Medica Terapia nutricional Dislipidemias Dieta Idade Sexo Hipercolesterolemia Hipertrigliceridemia Hiperlipidemia Lipoproteinas HDL Lipoproteinas LDL Lipoproteinas VLDL Nutrition therapy Dyslipidemias Diet Age Sex Hypercholesterolemia Hypertriglyceridemia Hyperlipidemia Lipoproteins HDL Lipoproteins LDL Lipoproteins VLDL
44	Le rôle des apoB-lipoprotéines sur la clairance des gras dans le tissu adipeux blanc sous-cutané humain Bissonnette, Simon 10 1900 (has links) OBJECTIF: La mauvaise clairance des lipoprotéines riches en triglycérides par le tissu adipeux blanc (TAB) entraîne l’hypertriglycéridémie, la résistance à l’insuline et la sécrétion hépatique d’apolipoprotéine B (apoB). Ce mémoire tente de déterminer si le LDL entraîne une clairance réduite des lipoprotéines riches en triglycérides par le TAB. MÉTHODES/RÉSULTATS: Suivant l’ingestion d’un repas riche en gras marqué à la trioléine-13C, des femmes obèses postménopausées avec apoB plasmatique élevé (> médiane 0.93 g/L, N=22, 98% sous forme de IDL/LDL) avaient une clairance réduite de triglycérides-13C et acides gras non-estérifiés-13C (AGNE), comparées à celles avec un apoB plus bas. L'aire sous la courbe à 6 heures des triglycérides-13C et AGNE-13C plasmatiques corrélait avec l'apoB, suggérant une moindre captation dans les tissus périphériques chez les femmes avec apoB élevé. Ex vivo, suivant une incubation de 4 heures de biopsies de TAB avec de la trioléine-3H, l’apoB des patientes corrélait négativement avec les lipides-3H intracellulaires. Le traitement des biopsies de TAB des participantes avec leur propre LDL menait à une réduction de l’hydrolyse et de la captation de la trioléine-3H et à l’accumulation d’AGNE-3H dans le médium. In vitro, le LDL inhibait l’activité de la LPL. De plus, les adipocytes 3T3-L1 différenciés en présence de LDL avaient une hydrolyse et une captation réduite des lipoprotéines riches en trioléine-3H. CONCLUSION: Ce mémoire suggère que le LDL diminue la clairance des lipoprotéines riches en triglycérides par le TAB humain, ce qui pourrait expliquer la résistance à l’insuline observée chez des sujets avec apoB élevé. / OBJECTIVE: Delayed plasma clearance of postprandial triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL) by white adipose tissue (WAT) promotes hypertriglyceridemia, insulin resistance and hepatic secretion of apoB-lipoproteins. The aim of this memoir was to examine whether low-density lipoproteins (LDL) induced delayed clearance of TRL by WAT. METHOD/RESULTS: Six hours following the ingestion of a high-fat meal, 22 postmenopausal obese women were separated based on plasma apoB levels (above/below median of 0.93 g/L). The high apoB group had delayed plasma clearance of postprandial triglyceride and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) compared to women with low apoB. There was no group difference in triolein oxidation rate, suggesting a lower NEFA uptake and storage in peripheral tissue in women with high apoB. Ex vivo, following a 4 hour incubation of participant’s WAT with synthetic 3H-triolein-TRL, plasma apoB correlated negatively with incorporated 3H-lipids. Incubation of women’s WAT with their own LDL (90% of apoB-lipoproteins in plasma) decreased 3H-TRL hydrolysis and increased medium 3H-NEFA accumulation. In vitro, LDL directly inhibited LPL activity. Finally, LDL-differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes had lower 3H-TRL hydrolysis and 3H-NEFA storage. CONCLUSION: This thesis suggests that LDL delay clearance and storage of TRL in human WAT, possibly explaining the increased insulin resistance observed in subjects with high apoB.

45	Efeitos do treinamento físico contínuo ou intervalado em um modelo experimental de dislipidemia e isquemia miocárdica / Effects of continuous or interval physical training on an experimental model of dyslipidemia and myocardial ischemia Abad, César Cavinato Cal 04 June 2013 (has links) O infarto do miocárdio (IM) é a doença cardiovascular que mais causa morte e invalidez em todo o mundo. O uso de animais experimentais tem auxiliado a compreender melhor a fisiopatologia e as formas de tratamento do IM. Sabendo que as dislipidemias estão associadas com o IM e que o treinamento físico pode ser prescrito para prevenção e tratamento de doenças cardiovasculares, no presente trabalho, investigamos os efeitos de dois tipos de treinamentos físicos em um modelo experimental de dislipidemia e isquemia miocárdica. Camundongos selvagens (WT) e knockout para o receptor LDL (LDL-/-) foram divididos em oito grupos: a) LDLr-/- sedentário (LDL-S); b) LDLr-/- infartado sedentário (LDL-IM-S); c) LDLr-/- infartado submetido a treinamento contínuo (LDL-IM-C); d) LDLr-/- infartado submetido a treinamento intervalado (LDL-IM-I); e) WT sedentário (WT-S); f) WT infartado sedentário (WT-IM-S); g) WT infartado submetido a treinamento contínuo (WT-IM-C); h) WT infartado submetido a treinamento intervalado (WT-IM-I). Após 60 dias da ligadura da artéria coronária descendente, o treino contínuo constou de corrida a 60% do máximo e o intervalado de 8 tiros de 4min a 80% do máximo e recuperação de 4min a 40% do máximo. Nos animais WT infartados, ambos os treinamentos aumentaram a tolerância ao esforço e provocaram diminuição do balanço simpatovagal e aumento do índice alfa em magnitudes semelhantes. O treinamento intervalado reduziu o número de fibras do tipo II em relação aos grupos WT-S e WT-IM-C, bem como reduziu a quantidade de fibras do tipo II-X em relação aos WT-S. A área de secção transversa das fibras do tipo I foi maior no grupo WT-IM-I do que no WT-IM-S e WT-S. A razão capilar/fibra foi maior nos animais do grupo WT-I do que no WT-S. A fração de ejeção e a fração de encurtamento foi menor no grupo LDL-IM-I em relação aos demais, mas sem diferenças entre os grupos WT-S, WT-IM-C e WT-IM-I. Nos animais LDL-/-, o LDL foi maior e o VLDL menor no grupo LDL-IM-C em relação aos demais. O HDLtg(%) foi superior no LDL-C em relação ao LDL-S. O HDLc (mg e %) do LDL-IM-I foi maior que o do grupo LDL-IM-C, sendo que o HDLc (mg) do LDL-IM-I foi, ainda maior do que o grupo LDL-S. O triglicérides total foi menor no grupo LDL-IM-C do que no LDL-S. Somente o grupo LDL-IM-I diminuiu a FC de repouso em relação ao grupo LDL-IM-S. A PA diastólica foi menor no grupo LDL-IM-S em relação ao LDL-S, enquanto que o grupo LDL-IM-I apresentou PA diastólica maior do que o grupo LDL-IM-C. A variância do intervalo de pulso foi maior no grupo LDL-S somente em relação ao grupo LDL-IM-I. Em conjunto nossos resultados demonstraram que os animais LDL possuem diferenças funcionais e fisiológicas importantes em relação ao WT, especialmente na morfologia muscular, na hemodinâmica e no controle autonômico. Que o IM acarretou prejuízos em ambas as linhagens investigadas e que os dois tipos de TF atenuaram semelhantemente esses prejuízos em grande parte das variáveis analisadas / Myocardial infarction (MI) is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. The use of experimental animals has supported to better understand the pathophysiology and treatment forms of myocardial infarction (MI). Knowing that the dyslipidemia associated with IM and that physical training can be prescribed for prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, the present study investigated the effects of two types of physical training on an experimental model of dyslipidemia and myocardial ischemia. Wild mice (WT) and LDL receptor knockout (LDL-/- ) were divided into eight groups: a) LDLr-/- sedentary (LDL-S), b) LDLr-/- myocardium infarction sedentary (LDL-MI-S), c) LDLr-/- myocardium infarction submitted to continuous training (LDL-MI-C), d) LDLr-/- myocardium infarction submitted to interval training (LDLMI- I), e) sedentary WT (WT-S); f) WT myocardium infarction sedentary (WT-MI-S); g) WT myocardium infarction submitted to continuous training (WT-MI-C), h) WT myocardium infarction submitted to interval training (WT-IM-I). After 60 days of descending coronary artery ligation, the continuous training consisted of running at 60% of maximum, while the interval training consisted of eight sprints of 4 min at 80% of maximum and a 4 min recovery at 40% of maximum. In infarcted WT animals, both training programs increased exercise tolerance and promoted decrease of sympathetic-vagal balance and increase of alpha index in similar magnitudes. Nevertheless, the interval training reduced the number of type II fibers in infarcted WT animals compared to WT-S and WT-MI-C groups, as well as reduced the amount of fiber type II-X compared to WT-S. The cross-sectional area of the fiber type I was higher in the WTMI- I animals than in WT-MI-S and S-WT groups. The reason capillary/fiber was higher in group WT-I than in the WT-S. Ejection fraction and shortening fraction were lower in LDL-MII compared to the others, but with no differences among the WT-S, WT-IMI-C and WT-MI-I groups. About the LDL-/- animals, the LDL was higher and VLDL was lower in the group LDL-MI-C in relation to the others. The HDLtg (%) was higher in LDL-C compared to LDL-S. The HDLc (mg and %) of LDL-MI-I was higher than the LDL-MI-C group, and the HDLc (mg) of LDL-MI-I was even higher than LDL-S group. The total triglycerides was lower in LDL- MIC than in LDL-S animals. Only in LDL-MI-I group the resting HR was decreased in comparison to LDL-MI-S. The diastolic blood pressure was lower in LDL-MI-S in relation to LDL-S, while the LDL-MI-I group presented a higher diastolic BP than the LDL-MI-C group. The pulse interval variance was greater in LDL-S than in LDL-MI-I only. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that LDL animals have important functional and physiological differences compared to WT, especially in relation to muscle morphology, hemodynamic and autonomic cardiovascular control.

46	Le rôle des apoB-lipoprotéines sur la clairance des gras dans le tissu adipeux blanc sous-cutané humain Bissonnette, Simon 10 1900 (has links) OBJECTIF: La mauvaise clairance des lipoprotéines riches en triglycérides par le tissu adipeux blanc (TAB) entraîne l’hypertriglycéridémie, la résistance à l’insuline et la sécrétion hépatique d’apolipoprotéine B (apoB). Ce mémoire tente de déterminer si le LDL entraîne une clairance réduite des lipoprotéines riches en triglycérides par le TAB. MÉTHODES/RÉSULTATS: Suivant l’ingestion d’un repas riche en gras marqué à la trioléine-13C, des femmes obèses postménopausées avec apoB plasmatique élevé (> médiane 0.93 g/L, N=22, 98% sous forme de IDL/LDL) avaient une clairance réduite de triglycérides-13C et acides gras non-estérifiés-13C (AGNE), comparées à celles avec un apoB plus bas. L'aire sous la courbe à 6 heures des triglycérides-13C et AGNE-13C plasmatiques corrélait avec l'apoB, suggérant une moindre captation dans les tissus périphériques chez les femmes avec apoB élevé. Ex vivo, suivant une incubation de 4 heures de biopsies de TAB avec de la trioléine-3H, l’apoB des patientes corrélait négativement avec les lipides-3H intracellulaires. Le traitement des biopsies de TAB des participantes avec leur propre LDL menait à une réduction de l’hydrolyse et de la captation de la trioléine-3H et à l’accumulation d’AGNE-3H dans le médium. In vitro, le LDL inhibait l’activité de la LPL. De plus, les adipocytes 3T3-L1 différenciés en présence de LDL avaient une hydrolyse et une captation réduite des lipoprotéines riches en trioléine-3H. CONCLUSION: Ce mémoire suggère que le LDL diminue la clairance des lipoprotéines riches en triglycérides par le TAB humain, ce qui pourrait expliquer la résistance à l’insuline observée chez des sujets avec apoB élevé. / OBJECTIVE: Delayed plasma clearance of postprandial triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL) by white adipose tissue (WAT) promotes hypertriglyceridemia, insulin resistance and hepatic secretion of apoB-lipoproteins. The aim of this memoir was to examine whether low-density lipoproteins (LDL) induced delayed clearance of TRL by WAT. METHOD/RESULTS: Six hours following the ingestion of a high-fat meal, 22 postmenopausal obese women were separated based on plasma apoB levels (above/below median of 0.93 g/L). The high apoB group had delayed plasma clearance of postprandial triglyceride and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) compared to women with low apoB. There was no group difference in triolein oxidation rate, suggesting a lower NEFA uptake and storage in peripheral tissue in women with high apoB. Ex vivo, following a 4 hour incubation of participant’s WAT with synthetic 3H-triolein-TRL, plasma apoB correlated negatively with incorporated 3H-lipids. Incubation of women’s WAT with their own LDL (90% of apoB-lipoproteins in plasma) decreased 3H-TRL hydrolysis and increased medium 3H-NEFA accumulation. In vitro, LDL directly inhibited LPL activity. Finally, LDL-differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes had lower 3H-TRL hydrolysis and 3H-NEFA storage. CONCLUSION: This thesis suggests that LDL delay clearance and storage of TRL in human WAT, possibly explaining the increased insulin resistance observed in subjects with high apoB.

47	Efeitos do treinamento físico contínuo ou intervalado em um modelo experimental de dislipidemia e isquemia miocárdica / Effects of continuous or interval physical training on an experimental model of dyslipidemia and myocardial ischemia César Cavinato Cal Abad 04 June 2013 (has links) O infarto do miocárdio (IM) é a doença cardiovascular que mais causa morte e invalidez em todo o mundo. O uso de animais experimentais tem auxiliado a compreender melhor a fisiopatologia e as formas de tratamento do IM. Sabendo que as dislipidemias estão associadas com o IM e que o treinamento físico pode ser prescrito para prevenção e tratamento de doenças cardiovasculares, no presente trabalho, investigamos os efeitos de dois tipos de treinamentos físicos em um modelo experimental de dislipidemia e isquemia miocárdica. Camundongos selvagens (WT) e knockout para o receptor LDL (LDL-/-) foram divididos em oito grupos: a) LDLr-/- sedentário (LDL-S); b) LDLr-/- infartado sedentário (LDL-IM-S); c) LDLr-/- infartado submetido a treinamento contínuo (LDL-IM-C); d) LDLr-/- infartado submetido a treinamento intervalado (LDL-IM-I); e) WT sedentário (WT-S); f) WT infartado sedentário (WT-IM-S); g) WT infartado submetido a treinamento contínuo (WT-IM-C); h) WT infartado submetido a treinamento intervalado (WT-IM-I). Após 60 dias da ligadura da artéria coronária descendente, o treino contínuo constou de corrida a 60% do máximo e o intervalado de 8 tiros de 4min a 80% do máximo e recuperação de 4min a 40% do máximo. Nos animais WT infartados, ambos os treinamentos aumentaram a tolerância ao esforço e provocaram diminuição do balanço simpatovagal e aumento do índice alfa em magnitudes semelhantes. O treinamento intervalado reduziu o número de fibras do tipo II em relação aos grupos WT-S e WT-IM-C, bem como reduziu a quantidade de fibras do tipo II-X em relação aos WT-S. A área de secção transversa das fibras do tipo I foi maior no grupo WT-IM-I do que no WT-IM-S e WT-S. A razão capilar/fibra foi maior nos animais do grupo WT-I do que no WT-S. A fração de ejeção e a fração de encurtamento foi menor no grupo LDL-IM-I em relação aos demais, mas sem diferenças entre os grupos WT-S, WT-IM-C e WT-IM-I. Nos animais LDL-/-, o LDL foi maior e o VLDL menor no grupo LDL-IM-C em relação aos demais. O HDLtg(%) foi superior no LDL-C em relação ao LDL-S. O HDLc (mg e %) do LDL-IM-I foi maior que o do grupo LDL-IM-C, sendo que o HDLc (mg) do LDL-IM-I foi, ainda maior do que o grupo LDL-S. O triglicérides total foi menor no grupo LDL-IM-C do que no LDL-S. Somente o grupo LDL-IM-I diminuiu a FC de repouso em relação ao grupo LDL-IM-S. A PA diastólica foi menor no grupo LDL-IM-S em relação ao LDL-S, enquanto que o grupo LDL-IM-I apresentou PA diastólica maior do que o grupo LDL-IM-C. A variância do intervalo de pulso foi maior no grupo LDL-S somente em relação ao grupo LDL-IM-I. Em conjunto nossos resultados demonstraram que os animais LDL possuem diferenças funcionais e fisiológicas importantes em relação ao WT, especialmente na morfologia muscular, na hemodinâmica e no controle autonômico. Que o IM acarretou prejuízos em ambas as linhagens investigadas e que os dois tipos de TF atenuaram semelhantemente esses prejuízos em grande parte das variáveis analisadas / Myocardial infarction (MI) is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. The use of experimental animals has supported to better understand the pathophysiology and treatment forms of myocardial infarction (MI). Knowing that the dyslipidemia associated with IM and that physical training can be prescribed for prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, the present study investigated the effects of two types of physical training on an experimental model of dyslipidemia and myocardial ischemia. Wild mice (WT) and LDL receptor knockout (LDL-/- ) were divided into eight groups: a) LDLr-/- sedentary (LDL-S), b) LDLr-/- myocardium infarction sedentary (LDL-MI-S), c) LDLr-/- myocardium infarction submitted to continuous training (LDL-MI-C), d) LDLr-/- myocardium infarction submitted to interval training (LDLMI- I), e) sedentary WT (WT-S); f) WT myocardium infarction sedentary (WT-MI-S); g) WT myocardium infarction submitted to continuous training (WT-MI-C), h) WT myocardium infarction submitted to interval training (WT-IM-I). After 60 days of descending coronary artery ligation, the continuous training consisted of running at 60% of maximum, while the interval training consisted of eight sprints of 4 min at 80% of maximum and a 4 min recovery at 40% of maximum. In infarcted WT animals, both training programs increased exercise tolerance and promoted decrease of sympathetic-vagal balance and increase of alpha index in similar magnitudes. Nevertheless, the interval training reduced the number of type II fibers in infarcted WT animals compared to WT-S and WT-MI-C groups, as well as reduced the amount of fiber type II-X compared to WT-S. The cross-sectional area of the fiber type I was higher in the WTMI- I animals than in WT-MI-S and S-WT groups. The reason capillary/fiber was higher in group WT-I than in the WT-S. Ejection fraction and shortening fraction were lower in LDL-MII compared to the others, but with no differences among the WT-S, WT-IMI-C and WT-MI-I groups. About the LDL-/- animals, the LDL was higher and VLDL was lower in the group LDL-MI-C in relation to the others. The HDLtg (%) was higher in LDL-C compared to LDL-S. The HDLc (mg and %) of LDL-MI-I was higher than the LDL-MI-C group, and the HDLc (mg) of LDL-MI-I was even higher than LDL-S group. The total triglycerides was lower in LDL- MIC than in LDL-S animals. Only in LDL-MI-I group the resting HR was decreased in comparison to LDL-MI-S. The diastolic blood pressure was lower in LDL-MI-S in relation to LDL-S, while the LDL-MI-I group presented a higher diastolic BP than the LDL-MI-C group. The pulse interval variance was greater in LDL-S than in LDL-MI-I only.

48	BIRTHWEIGHT AND SUSCEPTIBILITY TO CHRONIC DISEASE Issa Al Salmi Unknown Date (has links) The thesis examines the relationship of birthweight to risk factors and markers, such as proteinuria and glomerular filtration rate, for chronic disease in postnatal life. It made use of the Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle Study (AusDiab). The AusDiab study is a cross sectional study where baseline data on 11,247 participants were collected in 1999-2000. Participants were recruited from a stratified sample of Australians aged ≥ 25 years, residing in 42 randomly selected urban and non-urban areas (Census Collector Districts) of the six states of Australia and the Northern Territory. The AusDiab study collected an enormous amount of clinical and laboratory data. During the 2004-05 follow-up AusDiab survey, questions about birthweight were included. Participants were asked to state their birthweight, the likely accuracy of the stated birthweight and the source of their stated birthweight. Four hundred and twelve chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients were approached, and 339 agreed to participate in the study. The patients completed the same questionnaire. Medical records were reviewed to check the diagnoses, causes of kidney trouble and SCr levels. Two control subjects, matched for gender and age, were selected for each CKD patient from participants in the AusDiab study who reported their birthweight. Among 7,157 AusDiab participants who responded to the questionnaire, 4,502 reported their birthweights, with a mean (standard deviation) of 3.4 (0.7) kg. The benefit and disadvantages of these data are discussed in chapter three. The data were analysed for the relationship between birthweight and adult body size and composition, disorders of glucose regulation, blood pressure, lipid abnormalities, cardiovascular diseases and glomerular filtration rate. Low birthweight was associated with smaller body build and lower lean mass and total body water in both females and males. In addition low birthweight was associated with central obesity and higher body fat percentage in females, even after taking into account current physical activity and socioeconomic status. Fasting plasma glucose, post load glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin were strongly and inversely correlated with birthweight. In those with low birthweight (< 2.5 kg), the risks for having impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes and all abnormalities combined were increased by 1.75, 2.22, 2.76 and 2.28 for females and by 1.40, 1.32, 1.98 and 1.49 for males compared to those with normal birthweight (≥ 2.5 kg), respectively. Low birthweight individuals were at higher risk for having high blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg and ≥ 130/85 mmHg compared to those with normal birthweight. People with low birthweight showed a trend towards increased risk for high cholesterol (≥ 5.5 mmol/l) compared to those of normal birthweight. Females with low birthweight had increased risk for high low density lipoprotein cholesterol (≥ 3.5 mmol/l) and triglyceride levels (≥ 1.7 mmol/l) when compared to those with normal birthweight. Males with low birthweight exhibited increased risk for low levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (<0.9 mmol/l) than those with normal birthweight. Females with low birthweight were at least 1.39, 1.40, 2.30 and 1.47 times more likely to have angina, coronary artery disease, stroke and overall cardiovascular diseases respectively, compared to those ≥ 2.5 kg. Similarly, males with low birthweight were 1.76, 1.48, 3.34 and 1.70 times more likely to have angina, coronary artery disease, stroke and overall cardiovascular diseases compared to those ≥ 2.5 kg, respectively. The estimated glomerular filtration rate was strongly and positively associated with birthweight, with a predicted increase of 2.6 ml/min (CI 2.1, 3.2) and 3.8 (3.0, 4.5) for each kg of birthweight for females and males, respectively. The odd ratio (95% confidence interval) for low glomerular filtration rate (<61.0 ml/min for female and < 87.4 male) in people of low birthweight compared with those of normal birthweight was 2.04 (1.45, 2.88) for female and 3.4 (2.11, 5.36) for male. One hundred and eighty-nineCKD patients reported their birthweight; 106 were male. Their age was 60.3(15) years. Their birthweight was 3.27 (0.62) kg, vs 3.46 (0.6) kg for their AusDiab controls, p<0.001 and the proportions with birthweight<2.5 kg were 12.17% and 4.44%, p<0.001. Among CKD patients, 22.8%, 21.7%, 18% and 37.6% were in CKD stages 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Birthweights by CKD stage and their AusDiab controls were as follows: 3.38 (0.52) vs 3.49 (0.52), p=0.251 for CKD2; 3.28 (0.54) vs 3.44 (0.54), p=0.121 for CKD3; 3.19 (0.72) vs 3.43 (0.56), p= 0.112 for CKD4 and 3.09 (0.65) vs 3.47 (0.67), p<0.001 for CKD5. The results demonstrate that in an affluent Western country with a good adult health profile, low birthweight people were predisposed to higher rates of glycaemic dysregulation, high blood pressure, dyslipidaemia, cardiovascular diseases and lower glomerular filtration rate in adult life. In all instances it would be prudent to adopt policies of intensified whole of life surveillance of lower birthweight people, anticipating this risk. The general public awareness of the effect of low birthweight on development of chronic diseases in later life is of vital importance. The general public, in addition to the awareness of people in medical practice of the role of low birthweight, will lead to a better management of this group of our population that is increasingly surviving into adulthood. birth weight birthweight birth weight and renal volume BIRTH WEIGHT QUESTIONNAIRE chronic disease Barker Hypothesis Foetal development DOHaD gestational age Anthropometric Characteristics body composition Height weight body mass index Waist Circumference hip circumference Waist-hip Ratio obesity Central Obesity Fatness Lean Body Mass Lean Mass Fat Mass body fat mass Body Fat Percentage body fatness Body Surface Area diabetes Fasting Glucose fasting insulin level glucose tolerance Impaired Fasting Glucose Impaired Glucose Tolerance Glycosylated Hemoglobin HbA1c IFG glucose control glycaemic control Metabolic Syndrome Syndrome X blood pressure Systolic Blood-pressure Diastolic Blood-pressure Systolic Hypertension high blood pressure Hypertension Dyslipidaemia Dyslipidemia Total Cholesterol Triglyceride Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ldl Cholesterol High Density Lipoprotein Hdl Cholesterol Fibrinogen angina Angina-pectoris Stroke coronary artery disease cardiovascular disease Framingham Framingham Heart Study Framingham Score coronary heart disease Glomerular Filtration glomerular filtration rate Glomerular Hyperfiltration Glomerular Injury Glomerular Number Nephrogenesis Nephron Endowment Nephron Number NKF-K/DQQI Classification Chronic Kidney Disease (ckd) Chronic Kidney Failure Kidney Failure CKD STAGES end-stage renal disease (ESRD) end-stage renal failure Cockcroft-gault MDRD formula Serum Creatinine Urinary Creatinine albuminuria Albuminuria:creatinine Ratio Kidney Development Kidney dysfunction low birth weight low birth weight Pre-term Birth AusDiab Study case control longitudinal observational study

Birthweights by CKD stage and their AusDiab controls were as follows: 3.38 (0.52) vs 3.49 (0.52), p=0.251 for CKD2; 3.28 (0.54) vs 3.44 (0.54), p=0.121 for CKD3; 3.19 (0.72) vs 3.43 (0.56), p= 0.112 for CKD4 and 3.09 (0.65) vs 3.47 (0.67), p<0.001 for CKD5. The results demonstrate that in an affluent Western country with a good adult health profile, low birthweight people were predisposed to higher rates of glycaemic dysregulation, high blood pressure, dyslipidaemia, cardiovascular diseases and lower glomerular filtration rate in adult life. In all instances it would be prudent to adopt policies of intensified whole of life surveillance of lower birthweight people, anticipating this risk. The general public awareness of the effect of low birthweight on development of chronic diseases in later life is of vital importance. The general public, in addition to the awareness of people in medical practice of the role of low birthweight, will lead to a better management of this group of our population that is increasingly surviving into adulthood. birth weight birthweight birth weight and renal volume BIRTH WEIGHT QUESTIONNAIRE chronic disease Barker Hypothesis Foetal development DOHaD gestational age Anthropometric Characteristics body composition Height weight body mass index Waist Circumference hip circumference Waist-hip Ratio obesity Central Obesity Fatness Lean Body Mass Lean Mass Fat Mass body fat mass Body Fat Percentage body fatness Body Surface Area diabetes Fasting Glucose fasting insulin level glucose tolerance Impaired Fasting Glucose Impaired Glucose Tolerance Glycosylated Hemoglobin HbA1c IFG glucose control glycaemic control Metabolic Syndrome Syndrome X blood pressure Systolic Blood-pressure Diastolic Blood-pressure Systolic Hypertension high blood pressure Hypertension Dyslipidaemia Dyslipidemia Total Cholesterol Triglyceride Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ldl Cholesterol High Density Lipoprotein Hdl Cholesterol Fibrinogen angina Angina-pectoris Stroke coronary artery disease cardiovascular disease Framingham Framingham Heart Study Framingham Score coronary heart disease Glomerular Filtration glomerular filtration rate Glomerular Hyperfiltration Glomerular Injury Glomerular Number Nephrogenesis Nephron Endowment Nephron Number NKF-K/DQQI Classification Chronic Kidney Disease (ckd) Chronic Kidney Failure Kidney Failure CKD STAGES end-stage renal disease (ESRD) end-stage renal failure Cockcroft-gault MDRD formula Serum Creatinine Urinary Creatinine albuminuria Albuminuria:creatinine Ratio Kidney Development Kidney dysfunction low birth weight low birth weight Pre-term Birth AusDiab Study case control longitudinal observational study
