What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
High-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) Concentration at Baseline
Time Frame: Baseline
Blood level of HDL-C was measured following a 12-hours fasting.
Baseline
High-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) Concentration at Week 6
Time Frame: Week 6
Blood level of HDL-C was measured following a 12-hours fasting.
Week 6
Cholesterol Ester Production Rate at Baseline
Time Frame: Baseline
Cholesterol ester production rate was calculated using a 3-pool model with a simulation, analysis and modeling (SAAM II) program.
Baseline
Cholesterol Ester Production Rate at Week 6
Time Frame: Week 6
Cholesterol ester production rate was calculated using a 3-pool model with a simulation, analysis and modeling (SAAM II) program.
Week 6

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Low-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) and Total Cholesterol Concentration
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6
Blood level of LDL-C and total cholesterol (TC) was measured following a 12-hours fasting.
Baseline, Week 6
Cholesterol Ester Fractional Catabolic Rate
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6
Cholesterol ester fractional catabolic rate were calculated using a 3-pool model with a simulation, analysis and modeling (SAAM II) program. Fractional catabolic rate was the percentage of cholesterol ester which was replaced, transferred or lost per unit of time.
Baseline, Week 6
Low-density Lipoprotein Associated With Apolipoprotein B (LDL-apoB) Production Rate
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6
LDL-apoB production rate were calculated using a 3-pool model with a simulation, analysis and modeling (SAAM II) program.
Baseline, Week 6
Low-density Lipoprotein Associated With Apolipoprotein B (LDL-apoB) Fractional Catabolic Rate
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6
Fractional catabolic rate for LDL ApoB were calculated using the 13 carbon (13C) isotopic enrichment of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) as the limiting value. Isotope 13C in plasma was measured using Gas Chromatography-Combustion-Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (GC-C-IRMS).
Baseline, Week 6
High-density Lipoprotein Associated With Apolipoprotein A1 (HDL-apoA1) Production Rate
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6
HDL-apoA1 production rate were calculated using a 3-pool model with a simulation, analysis and modeling (SAAM II) program.
Baseline, Week 6
High-density Lipoprotein Associated With Apolipoprotein A1 (HDL-apoA1) Fractional Catabolic Rate
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6
Fractional catabolic rate for HDL-apoA1 were calculated using the 13C isotopic enrichment of VLDL as the limiting value. Isotope 13C in plasma was measured using GC-C-IRMS.
Baseline, Week 6
Cholesterol Efflux Rate
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6
Cholesterol efflux rate was measured using isotope dilution method in which rate of appearance of isotope 13C-free cholesterol in plasma representing whole body efflux from tissues was assessed. Isotope 13C in plasma was measured using GC-C-IRMS.
Baseline, Week 6
