“…Chronic, low doses of these drugs are used in the treatment of chronic diseases such as lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis [1]. Despite their beneficial effects, long-term therapy causes severe metabolic disorders similar to those observed with abnormalities in endogenous hormones [2][3][4][5] leading to Cushing's syndrome, hypertension, hyperglycemia, muscle atrophy, and dyslipidemia.…”

“…Other conditions reported to have low PHLA include diabetes mellitus (69), hormonal steroid treatment (43,46,70), liver disease (65), alcoholism (71), renal failure (72), and pancreatitis (73). Specific changes also might be detected with hypolipidemic diets or drugs found to increase total PHLA (44,45,74 …”

“…In recent years it has been described in patients with endstage renal failure, and is apparently more pronounced in those undergoing haemodialysis treatment [2,3,9,13,20], A satisfactory explanation for this imbalance in lipid metabolism associated with renal disease is not yet known. A reduction in triglyceride metabolism by inhibition of lipoprotein lipase [24], stimulation of hepatic triglyceride synthesis in nephrotic syndrome [15], increased produc tion of very low density lipoproteins as a consequence of elevated basal plasma insulin concentrations in renal in sufficiency [3,33] and a hyperiipaemic effect of steroid therapy in patients after renal transplantation are thought to be possible causes [4,37], Hypercholesterolaemia and hypertriglyceridaemia ap pear to be important risk factors in the development of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease [10.12,36,41, 42], This has also been observed in renal diseases with hyperlipaemia, patients with nephrotic syndrome [1] and patients after renal transplantation [25] are reported to manifest an accelerated development of atherosclerotic heart disease. A similar phenomenon in patients with ad vanced renal failure undergoing regular haemodialysis [5,31,32] has been unconfirmed by Burke et al [11], Recently in this journal an increased 'coronary risk' has also been reported in patients with analgesic nephropathy [26,30].…”
