TITULO: perfil genético e clínico-demográfico dos pacientes com hipercolesterolemia familiar (HF) acompanhados no ambulatório de dislipidemia primária do hospital universitário Walter Cantídio (HUWC). (Liga Acadêmica de Diabetes - SB.00.2003.AI.0) INTRODUÇÃO: a HF é uma doença genética causada por mutações em genes relacionados com o metabolismo da lipoproteína de baixa densidade (LDL-c), elevando seu nível no ...
Background: Congenital generalized lipodystrophy (CGL) is a rare disorder characterized by the absence of subcutaneous adipose tissue, severe insulin resistance, diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular complications, including cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN), left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and atherosclerosis. The present study aimed to access the association between CAN parameters and cardiovascular abno...
Background: Metabolic abnormalities in congenital generalized lipodystrophy (CGL) are associated with microvascular complications. However, the evaluation of different types of neuropathy in these patients, including the commitment of cardiovascular autonomic modulation, is scarce. The objective of the present study was to determine the prevalence of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) in patients with CG...
