Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
Data from five study populations participating in the Cooperative Lipoprotein Phenotyping Study indicate strong relations between reported alcohol consumption and blood-lipids and Plasma-triglycerides showed a modest positive correlation with alcohol.

Atherogenic lipoprotein phenotype. A proposed genetic marker for coronary heart disease risk.

TL;DR: The proposed genetic locus responsible for LDL subclass phenotypes also results in an atherogenic lipoprotein phenotype, found to be closely associated with variations in plasma levels of other lipid, lipop protein, and apolipoprotein measurements.

Moderate Alcohol Intake, Increased Levels of High-Density Lipoprotein and Its Subfractions, and Decreased Risk of Myocardial Infarction

TL;DR: The inverse association of moderate alcohol intake with the risk of myocardial infarction is confirmed and support the view that the effect is mediated, in large part, by increases in both HDL2 and HDL3.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factors associated with cardiac mortality in developed countries with particular reference to the consumption of wine

TL;DR: There is a strong and specific negative association between ischaemic heart-disease deaths and alcohol consumption and this is shown to be wholly attributable to wine consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI

Purple Grape Juice Improves Endothelial Function and Reduces the Susceptibility of LDL Cholesterol to Oxidation in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

TL;DR: Short-term ingestion of purple grape juice improves FMD and reduces LDL susceptibility to oxidation in CAD patients, and potential mechanisms by which flavonoids in purple grape products may prevent cardiovascular events, independent of alcohol content are assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alcohol and mortality: a u-shaped curve

TL;DR: A multivariate analysis showed this U-shaped relationship between reported alcohol consumption and subsequent mortality to be largely independent of differences in smoking, blood pressure, plasma cholesterol, and grade of employment.

Epidemiologic studies of coronary heart disease and stroke in Japanese men living in Japan, Hawaii and California: Demographic, physical, dietary and biochemical characteristics

TL;DR: In most populations with low cholesterol levels and a low prevalence of coronary heart disease, the intake of fat is low and the fat which is ingested is derived primarily from fish and vegetable oils, and in most populations exhibiting a high serum cholesterol in men, there is also a high prevalence of heart disease.

Effects of chronic ethanol feeding on serum lipoprotein metabolism in the rat

TL;DR: In rats, chronic ethanol feeding was found to enhance the postprandial hyperlipemia and to increase the incorporation of dietary palmitic acid and intravenously injected L-lysine-(14)C into serum lipoproteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distribution of triglyceride and total, LDL and HDL cholesterol in several populations: A cooperative lipoprotein phenotyping study

TL;DR: For men aged 50–69 triglyceride levels were higher in Puerto Rico than in Albany or Framingham, despite much lower levels of serum cholesterol, and the 95th percentile for triglyceride varied greatly by age and population.
