UNASSIGNED: Totally, 50 hemodialysis patients were allocated randomly to either Aloe vera or placebo groups. The Aloe vera group received 2 Aloe vera capsules daily for 8 weeks (500 mg/day). Serum C-reactive protein (hs- CRP), Fasting blood glucose (FBS), and lipid profiles levels were evaluated at the baseline and the end of the eighth week.
UNASSIGNED: Aloe vera supplementation for 8 weeks was associated with a significant reduction of serum hs- CRP (p=0.004), total cholesterol (p=0.01), low density lipoprotein (LDL) (p=0.02) leves and increased high density lipoprotein (HDL) (p=0.002) concentration in the hemodialysis patients.
UNASSIGNED: Aloe vera supplementation is beneficial in improvement of cardiovascular risk factors in hemodialysis patients.
■完全,将50名血液透析患者随机分为芦荟组或安慰剂组。芦荟组每天服用2粒芦荟胶囊,共8周(500mg/天)。血清C反应蛋白(hs-CRP),空腹血糖(FBS),在基线和第8周结束时评估血脂水平.
■补充芦荟8周与血清hs-CRP显着降低有关(p=0.004),总胆固醇(p=0.01),血液透析患者低密度脂蛋白(LDL)(p=0.02)升高,高密度脂蛋白(HDL)浓度升高(p=0.002)。
■补充芦荟有利于改善血液透析患者的心血管危险因素。
