Heart rate, triglycerides, and eGFR were lower with higher BNP levels.
Two predefined models of adjustment were used (model 1: univariate; model 2: adjusted for sex, age, BMI, hypertension, smoking, glomerular filtration rate, triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol).
Four predefined models of adjustment were used (model 1: unadjusted; model 2: adjusted for sex and age; model 3: adjusted for sex, age, BMI, hypertension, smoking, glomerular filtration rate, triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and FS; and model 4: model 3 with additional adjustment for fasting glucose).
Height, weight, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, red cell count, hemoglobin, fibrinogen, incidence of PCI, and there was difference in use of nitrate esters, diuretics, and calcium channel blockers among the four groups (P<0.05, Table 1).
The decrease in VLDL cholesterol can result from a reduction of the rate of triglyceride synthesis, an enhancement of triglyceride removal, or a combination of these effects [ 44].
Rate of triglyceride consumption (mol/(l min)).
Abcb11, a gene overexpressed in the Lean line liver, is known to enhance the rate of triglyceride excretion from the liver [ 26, 27].
Transcripts 1B and 1A, the major transcripts in skeletal muscle, correlated with FA disposal rate and triglyceride clearance, supporting importance of muscle CD36 in clearance of circulating FA.
These proteins are critical in cholesterol metabolism and their increased levels in synovial fluid suggest a higher rate of triglyceride and cholesterol transport which increases the risk of atherosclerosis [ 64].
The rates of triglyceride secretion, measured after injection of Triton WR-1339, were similar in the wild type and mutant (0.032±0.001 mg triglyceride/min in wild type vs. 0.032±0.004 mg triglyceride/min in mutant; n = 3, P = 1.0) [22], excluding a defect in chylomicron assembly or secretion from the intestine.
