RESUMEN

This guideline is the first Iranian guideline developed for the diagnosis, management, and treatment of hyperlipidemia in adults. The members of the guideline developing group (GDG) selected 9 relevant clinical questions and provided recommendations or suggestions to answer them based on the latest scientific evidence. Recommendations include the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) threshold for starting drug treatment in adults lacking comorbidities was determined to be over 190 mg/dL and the triglyceride (TG) threshold had to be >500 mg/dl. In addition to perform fasting lipid profile tests at the beginning and continuation of treatment, while it was suggested to perform cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) risk assessment using valid Iranian models. Some recommendations were also provided on lifestyle modification as the first therapeutic intervention. Statins were recommended as the first line of drug treatment to reduce LDL-C, and if its level was high despite the maximum allowed or maximum tolerated drug treatment, combined treatment with ezetimibe, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors, or bile acid sequestrants was suggested. In adults with hypertriglyceridemia, pharmacotherapy with statin or fibrate was recommended. The target of drug therapy in adults with increased LDL-C without comorbidities and risk factors was considered an LDL-C level of <130 mg/dl, and in adults with increased TG without comorbidities and risk factors, TG levels of <200 mg/dl. In this guideline, specific recommendations and suggestions were provided for the subgroups of the general population, such as those with CVD, stroke, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, elderly, and women.

RESUMEN

The use of neuroprotective agents has been under investigation for the treatment of ischaemic brain stroke. In this study, we examined the effects of rosiglitazone and MK-801, two potential neuroprotectants, on thromboembloic focal stroke in hyperthermic rats. The animals were assigned into groups of rosiglitazone, MK-801 and control, all under both normothermic and hyperthermic conditions. A focal ischaemia was induced by injection of preformed clot into the origin of the middle cerebral artery. The animals were assessed by measuring infarct size and brain oedema and also evaluating neurological deficit and seizure activity. Rosiglitazone improved infarct volume and neurological deficit in both normo- (36%) and hyperthermic (63%) animals; but MK-801 only improved normothermic animals. Our results do not support the use of MK-801 in hyperthermic conditions of brain stroke but suggest that rosiglitazone may preserve its efficiency even in hyperthermia.
