简要总结
Atherogenic Dyslipidemia (AD) is a risk-conferring lipid/lipoprotein profile that comprises a higher proportion of small LDL particles, reduced HDL-C, and increased triglycerides. It is characteristically seen in patients with obesity, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes mellitus and has emerged as an important marker for the increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk observed in these populations.
Optimal cardiovascular risk reduction in patients exhibiting the lipid triad of AD requires integrated pharmacotherapy to normalize HDL-C, Triglyceride (TG) and LDL-C levels. Recent studies have focused on optimizing treatment for AD and compare the efficacy and tolerability of combined lipid-altering drug based therapies, however, an optimal pharmacologic approach has not yet been established.
The present study was intended to evaluate the restorative efficacy of Extended Release Niacin (ER Niacin) and Fenofibrate as mono and combination therapies , as well as their safety and tolerability in females with obesity-induced AD.
详细描述
Study Setting:
The present study is a single blinded placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial, in which target individuals were obese females (BMI≥30 kg/m2), within the age of 20-60 years, attending the Obesity research and therapy unit of Al-Kindy College of Medicine, University of Baghdad (Baghdad, Iraq), throughout the period from 1st October 2014 to 15th March 2015.
Study Protocol:
Target individuals with fulfill devoid of exclusion criteria, were further screened and only candidates with conventional diagnosis of AD, as confirmed by a fasting serum TG >150 mg/dl coincide with an HDL-C of less than 50 mg/dl, were considered to be enrolled. Finally, and successive to a comprehensible concise for the expected benefits and side effects on top of the commitment to the entire protocol, eligible candidates settled for participation were provided with a written informed consent.

结局指标
主要结局
Changes Serum Triglyceride Levels
时间窗: Treatments effects were assessed by two events, baseline investigations conducted before randomization and end line investigations at the end of the eighth week of treatments.
Assessments involve the measurement of serum Triglyceride (TG) level.
Changes in Serum Lipoprotein Cholesterol Levels
时间窗: Treatments effects were assessed by two events, baseline investigations conducted before randomization and end line investigations at the end of the eighth week of treatments.
Assessments involve the measurement of serum Total (TC), High density lipoprotein (HDL-C) and direct Low density lipoprotein (d-LDL-C) cholesterol levels. Serum non HDL-C levels is calculated by subtracting HDL-C from TC. Serum Remnant cholesterol (RC) is calculated by subtracting HDL-C and d-LDL-C from TC.
Changes in Serum Apolipoprotein Levels
时间窗: Treatments effects were assessed by two events, baseline investigations conducted before randomization and end line investigations at the end of the eighth week of treatments.
Assessments involve the measurement of serum Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) and B (Apo B) levels.
