April 11, 2016 updated by: Aydogan Aydogdu, Gulhane School of Medicine

Lipid Profile and Oxidative Stress Parameters of Patients With Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism and the Change of These Parameters With Gonadotropin Replacement Therapy

Effects of gonadotrophin replacement therapy Lipid Profile and Oxidative Stress Parameters of Patients with Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism

Study Overview

Detailed Description

30 male patients diagnosed with IHH and a control group of 20 healthy cases with similar age and BMI were included in the study. The levels of advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), thiol, malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO) and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and the levels of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein (HDL-K), low density lipoprotein (LDL-K), Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) and Apolipoprotein B100 (ApoB100) were measured before and after gonadotrophin therapy.
