“…Dyslipidemia is considered to have an important role in cardiovascular events, especially CHD. Dyslipidemia is investigated as a predictor of CHD; it has a role in the process of atherogenesis [11, 12].…”

Background. Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is the main highlight of the major cardiovascular diseases. In Indonesia, CHD is the leading cause of death from all deaths, with rates reaching 26.4%, which is four times greater than cancer mortality rates. Objective. This study aims to determine whether dyslipidemia associated with hypertension increases the risks for the incidence of CHD in Harapan Kita Hospital, National Cardiovascular Center, Jakarta, or does not. Methods. The study design was case control. The sample was 163 respondents, 82 respondents in the case group and 81 respondents in the control group. The data were analyzed by using logistic regression. Results. In the CHD group, the percentage of respondents with dyslipidemia was 50%, while in the control group, the percentage of respondents with dyslipidemia was 17.3%. The relationship of dyslipidemia with the incidence of CHD differed according to hypertension status. After being controlled for age, in hypertensive respondents, those with dyslipidemia was 18.1 times more likely to develop CHD compared with those nondyslipidemic, whereas in nonhypertensive respondents, those with dyslipidemia was 2.5 times more likely to develop CHD compared with those nondyslipidemic. Recommendation. It is recommended that the community have medical checkup regularly and change lifestyles by taking healthy diet to control lipid profile and blood pressure.

“…These patients showed dilacerated teeth and other dental anomalies: tooth agenesis, taurodontism, enamel hypomaturation, microdontia, screwdriver central incisors, peg-shaped lateral incisors, enamel hypoplasia, short roots, atypical furcation of the roots, and supernumerary roots. Also, there are published three isolated cases on simultaneous appearance of dilacerated teeth with supernumeraries, tooth transposition and tooth fusion (19-21).…”

BackgroundThe aim of this study was to record and analyze all DDAs associated to dilacerated teeth in patients attending the clinics of the Postgraduate Division, Facultad de Odontología, UNAM in Mexico City.Material and MethodsOrthopantomograms from all patients seeking for stomatological attention in our institution were reviewed and those cases of dilaceration were separated. Age, gender, diagnosis, location, involved teeth and associated DDAs were recorded and analyzed.ResultsFrom 6,340 patients, 99 (1.6%) harbored 125 dilacerated teeth. Of them, 45 (45.5%) showed one or more DDAs. The most frequently detected DDAs were hypodontia, enamel pearls, taurodontism and microdontia.Conclusions45.5% is a very high proportion of DDAs in patients with dilacerated roots. Findings from this study strongly suggest that patients with dilacerated teeth should be carefully screened since many of them could present other DDAs. Simultaneous occurrence of dilaceration and DDAs suggests synchronic developmental defects during dental growth. Key words:Developmental alterations; dental developmental alterations; root dilaceration.

“…The association between dyslipidaemia and obesity has been reported frequently in the literature; obesity causes abnormalities in an individual’s lipid metabolism 12. Increased visceral adipose tissue and increased subcutaneous waist adipose tissue are associated with higher triglyceride (TG) levels and lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels 13 14.…”

ObjectivesTo determine and describe the prevalence and pattern of dyslipidaemia and its associated risk factors among an adult Emirati population.DesignPopulation-based, cross-sectional study.SettingAdults living in the Northern Emirates.Participants824 adult participants (51.8% men, 48.2% women, mean age 42.8±13.4 years old).Primary outcome measuresFasting blood samples were collected, blood pressure and waist circumference were measured.ResultsThe overall dyslipidaemia prevalence was 72.5%, with 42.8% of the participants showing high total cholesterol (TC) level, 29% showing high triglyceride (TG) level, 42.5% showing low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level, 38.6% showing high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level and 72.3% showing high cholesterol ratio. The regression models showed that gender was a significant predictor of a high TG level, low LDL-C level and high cholesterol ratio. Middle-aged individuals (30–59 years old) had a significantly higher risk of having high TC, TG and LDL-C levels than young (<30 years old) and elderly (≥60 years old) individuals. Diabetes mellitus was a significant predictor of low TC, high TG and low HDL-C levels, while central obesity was a significant predictor of a high TG level, low HDL-C level and high cholesterol ratio. Smoking was a significant predictor of a high TG level only in men.ConclusionsThe prevalence of dyslipidaemia was considerably high among the local adult Emiratis. The identified dyslipidaemia predictors were gender, age, smoking, central obesity and diabetes. Further studies are recommended to assess other important risk factors and aggressive preventive measures in the United Arab Emirates.
