    Notes: Summary Oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and is related to the fatty acid composition which is altered in diabetes mellitus. This study examines the relationship between the fatty acid composition of LDL and high density lipoprotein (HDL) and lipoprotein oxidation. A group of nine non-insulin-dependent diabetic (NIDDM) patients were compared to seven healthy control subjects before and after a high monounsaturated diet. Lipoproteins were isolated and oxidisability was measured by conjugated diene formation and lipid peroxide analysis. Serum HDL cholesterol was significantly lower in the diabetic patients. LDL cholesteryl ester linoleic acid in the diabetic patients was significantly higher at baseline and decreased after diet (p〈0.05) while oleic acid increased in both diabetic and non-diabetic subjects (p〈0.05). HDL cholesteryl ester oleic acid was lower in the diabetic patients compared with control subjects (p〈0.05) before diet and it increased significantly after diet (p〈0.05). LDL lipid peroxides and conjugated diene formation were related to LDL glycation (r=0.46, p〈0.05 and r=0.49, p〈0.05, respectively). Both decreased following diet (lipid peroxides for diabetic patients from 476±30 to 390±20 nmol/mg protein p〈0.05 and for control subjects from 350±36 to 198±30 nmol/mg protein p〈0.05). HDL conjugated diene formation decreased in both groups after diet but only significantly in the control group (55.4±7.5 to 53.2±6.7 nmol/mg protein for diabetic patients and 45.8±6.4 to 31.6±4.8 nmol/mg protein p〈0.05 for control subjects). There was a positive correlation between LDL lipid peroxide formation and percentage of cholesteryl ester linoleic acid in LDL from diabetic patients (r=0.61, p〈0.05) and control subjects (r=0.91, p〈0.01). Fatty acid composition of LDL was reflected in the composition of HDL. In the presence of HDL lipoprotein peroxidation decreased. This decrease in lipoprotein peroxidation was positively related to the percentage of linoleic acid in LDL (r=0.71, p〈0.05). This study confirms the close relationship between the fatty acid composition of LDL and HDL and demonstrates the importance of the fatty acid composition of the cholesteryl ester fraction in relation to LDL oxidation in diabetes. Linoleic acid in HDL appears to be a protecting factor against oxidation.

    Notes: Summary The increased risk of atherosclerotic disease in diabetic subjects may be due to enhanced foam cell formation following an increased susceptibility of low density lipoprotein to oxidative modification. This study has compared fatty acid content and lipoprotein oxidisability in 10 non-insulin-dependent diabetic subjects with that in 10 control subjects. Both groups were normocholesterolaemic and the diabetic subjects had higher triglyceride levels (2.2 ± 0.4 vs 1.2 ± 0.2 mmol/l, p 〈 0.05). The fatty acid composition was compared in low density lipoprotein following Folch extraction, separation by thin layer chromatography (for the lipid classes) and analysis by gas liquid chromatography. Low density lipoprotein oxidisability was assessed by conjugated diene and thiobarbituric acid reacting substance formation in the presence of copper ions. The esterified/free cholesterol ratio was higher in the low density lipoprotein from patients compared to control subjects (2.9 ± 0.1 vs 1.9 ± 0.3, p 〈 0.05). Linoleic acid in the cholesteryl ester fraction of the lipoprotein was higher in the patients than in the control subjects (48.2 ± 2.2 % vs 42.4 ± 3.4 %, p 〈 0.05) as was the total quantity of linoleic acid in the cholesteryl ester fraction (317.8 ± 68.0 vs 213.2 ± 28.0 μg/mg protein, p 〈 0.05) and in the low-density lipoprotein as a whole (443.2 ± 70.0 vs 340.2 ± 28.2 μg/mg protein, p 〈 0.05). Lipoprotein oxidisability was also increased in the diabetic group with increased formation of thiobarbituric acid reacting substances (35.6 ± 7.2 vs 22.3 ± 3.5 nmol/mg protein, p 〈 0.05, increased total diene formation (502 ± 60 vs 400 ± 30 nmol/mg protein, p 〈 0.05) and increased rate of diene formation (7.2 ± 0.6 vs 5.1 ± 0.9 nmol diene · mg protein–1· min–1, p 〈 0.05). This study indicates that low-density lipoprotein from diabetic subjects is more susceptible to oxidation. This could, in vivo, accelerate foam-cell formation thereby increasing atherosclerotic risk in diabetic subjects. [Diabetologia (1995) 38: 1300–1306]

    Notes: Objective To assess the suitability of the standard primipara (a subset of the obstetric population that has relatively low risk or intervention and of adverse outcome) for making inter-unit comparisons of indicators of the process and outcome of maternity care.Design Inter-unit comparison of 10 indicators of obstetric intervention and adverse outcome derived from routinely collected computerised data held on the St Mary's Maternity Information System.Setting Fifteen maternity units in the former North West Thames Region.Participants 15,463 primiparae who were delivered in 1992.Main outcome measures Proportion of primiparae within the standard definition; degree to which standard primiparae are associated with lower rates of intervention and adverse outcome, as compared to other primiparae.Results Within the database, 42.6% of all primiparae were found to be standard, with rates varying between units from 25.9% to 57.7%. As expected, the standard primiparous woman is at less risk of intervention or adverse outcome than other primiparae. All but one component variable of the standard definition is a significant risk factor for at least four of the 10 indicators. Statistically significant differences in indicator rates are seen between standard and nonstandard primiparae within units. Within the standard group, significant differences in rates of intervention and adverse outcome are seen between units. Units with relatively high levels of intervention within the higher risk nonstandard group also have relatively high levels of intervention within the standard group.Conclusions Use of the standard primipara, rather than the whole obstetric population, as the basis for inter-unit comparisons of maternity care will control for the substantial difference in case mix seen in different units, thereby increasing the validity of those comparisons. The technique has the additional benefit of clarifying the relationship between everyday clinical decision making and a unit's performance in comparative indicator reports. The approach must be combined with a separate study of the other groups in the case mix, such as multiparae and high risk primiparae. Additional nonoverlapping groups, homogeneous in terms of risk factors, should be defined and used to extend the basis on which comparisons may be made.
