| pubmed-article:2705633 | pubmed:abstractText | Effects of lowering serum triglyceride levels were investigated among 44 elderly hypertriglyceridemic patients with risk factors for stroke, reduced cerebral perfusion, and a history compatible with symptomatic occlusive cerebrovascular disease. Patients were randomly assigned to either treatment with gemfibrozil, a lipid-lowering agent, or control conditions. Subjects in both groups were instructed to follow a diet recommended for lowering serum lipid levels, while the treatment group was additionally administered 600 mg daily of gemfibrozil. Subjects assigned to the treatment group (n = 22) showed significant reductions in serum triglyceride levels (p less than .0005). Control subjects (n = 22) did not show any significant changes in serum triglyceride levels. There were also no significant changes in total cholesterol levels in either group. Analyses of values for mean bihemispheric gray matter cerebral blood flow measured by the xenon 133 inhalation method and cognitive scores tested by the Cognitive Capacity Screening Examination indicated that gemfibrozil-treated patients maintained significantly higher levels of cerebral perfusion and cognitive performance than untreated controls did. Regression analyses for different treatment intervals indicated that both cerebral blood flow and cognition showed linear improvements that correlated directly with the duration of treatment. Lowering triglyceride levels in hyperlipidemic subjects appears to benefit cerebral perfusion and cognitive performance after four to six months. | lld:pubmed |
