Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction in visceral adipose tissue is associated with improvement in apolipoprotein B-100 metabolism in obese men.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that a reduction in visceral adipose tissue is associated with a decrease in the hepatic secretion of VLDL apoB, and this may be due to a decreases in portal lipid substrate supply is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aortic compliance in young patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia.
TL;DR: It is suggested that the measurement of aortic compliance in young patients with familial hypercholesterolaemia may potentially be a useful, non-invasive, research tool for assessing their susceptibility to atheroma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of immunochemical methods for determining low concentrations of albumin in urine.
TL;DR: Four immunochemical methods for measuring urinary albumin at low concentrations were assessed for their assay characteristics and practicability and capital cost was highest with RIA and lowest with RID, which required most technical skill.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revisiting the metabolic syndrome
TL;DR: In cardiovascular risk assessment, MS encapsulates the contribution of non‐traditional risk factors and provides a clinically useful framework for early identification of people at increased long-term risk, and should be used in conjunction with standard algorithms based on conventional risk factors, which better predict short‐term risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: 3-D micromass organ culture method demonstrates that many of the phenotypic characteristics of the normal and the hyperplastic synovial lining in vivo are intrinsic functions of FLS, and provides new insight into inherent functions of the FLS lineage.
