Brief Summary

Obesity is associated with general low grade inflammation and, consequently, of oxidative stress that affects properties and functionality of lipoproteins. Metabolic syndrome exacerbate low grade inflammation. The intentional weight loss of at least 5% of the initial weight can modulate the pro-inflammatory state and reduce the oxidative stress related to the metabolic syndrome, thus diminishing the cardiovascular risk.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Lipoprotein and plasma oxidizability

    kinetics of 2,2'-diazobis-(2-amidinopropane)-dihydrochloride (AAPH)- induced peroxidation of plasma, LDL or HDL labeled with fluorescent probes. The length of the lag phase (lag-time) and the velocity of the reaction in the propagation phase (slope) of peroxidation kinetic curves are used as indices of sample oxidizability

    six months

  • Oxygen Reactive Species (ROS)

    plasma levels of ROS (mg/dL)

    six months

  • Inflammatory markers

    Plasma levels of cytokines (pg/ml);

    six months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Lipoprotein chemical composition

    six months

  • Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP)

    six months

Study Population

Subjects were males and females overweight or moderately obese with or without metabolic syndrome on a calorie-controlled diet. Those that lost at least 5% of the initial weight were analyzed.

You may qualify if:

  • a Group "Obese with MS":
  • BMI between 25 e 35 Kg/m2
  • presence at least three of the following:1) waist circumference \>102 cm for males or \> 88 cm for females; 2) triglycerides: ≥ 150 mg/dL;3) HDL-cholesterol \< 40 mg/dL in males or \< 50 mg/dL in females; 4) hypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥ 130 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 85 mm Hg or antihypertensive intake); 5) glycemia: ≥ 110 mg/dL
  • Alcohol consumption \< 25 g/die
  • No smoking or smoking less that 5 cigarettes/die
  • No use of antioxidant based supplements
  • Absence of hormonal treatments
  • Informed consent signature
  • b Group "Obese without MS":
  • BMI between 25 e 35 Kg/m2
  • Alcohol consumption \< 25 g/die
  • No smoking or smoking less that 5 cigarettes/die
  • No use of antioxidant based supplements
  • Absence of hormonal treatments
  • Informed consent signature

You may not qualify if:

  • Presence of major disease
  • Receiving hypoglycemic treatment
  • Receiving treatments that alter lipoprotein metabolism
  • Receiving hormonal treatments
  • Use of antioxidant supplement
  • Alcohol consumption \> 25 g/die
  • Smoking \> 5 cigarettes/die.
  • For women:pregnancy
