Popis: The effect of polyunsaturated phosphatidylcholine (PU-PC) on the biochemical types of hyperlipoproteinemia and, the induced changes in the individual lipoprotein classes were investigated. 350 male and female hyperlipoproteinemic patients were screened by a panel of clinical and biochemical parameters. The selected patients belonged to type IIa and b (n=55) and type IV (n=37). 16% of the cohort members had hypertension, 16% had cardiovascular complications, 23% had cerebral symptoms and 14% had peripheral atherosclerosis. 31% of the group were obese and 9% of them were diabetic. Only patients with the same hyperlipoproteinemic type taken twice at an interval of 14 days were retained for statistical evaluation. 92 patients were intravenously treated during 14 days with 100 mg PU-PC/day and 69 patients were further treated perorally with 3x2 caps/day (1800 mg/d) for 106 days.
