Abstract

Introduction: Fasting as a religious necessity has so many spiritual effects on people's life. Some parts of these effects are done via the biological intervention and it is necessary for each physician to know all the body biological changes during the fasting period. There are some evidences showing the increase of the serum lipoproteins during the fasting period. This study was aimed to assess the changes of the main cardiovascular risk factors (changes of lipoproteins and blood pressure) during the fasting period.Material & Methods: About the first month of winter when fasting time was at most 13 hours/ day, 44 volunteers were selected. All of them were employees of a military center in Tehran. Blood was sampled and weight was measured twice in tl.e 1 'I and 291h day of fasting period after at least 8 hours of fasting. Triglyceride (TG), cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations were measured for each serum sample, using the same method and kit at both thetimes. Serum lipoprotein concentrations and weight were both adjusted by Body Mass Index (BMI).Results: Mean age of the participants was 39.8±5.4 years. Mean TG concentrations before and after the fasting period were 175 ± 60 and 160 ± 71 mg/dl, respectively, mean TC concentrations before and after fasting were 213 ± 42 and 219 ± 35 mg/ dl, respectively, and HDL concentrations before and after this period were 35.7 ± 6.5 and 36.1 ± 5.9 mg/dt, respectively, that non of these data show significant difference. Mean LDL concentration after the fasting period was significantly higher than that of before this period (150 ± 34 vs. 142 ± 37 mg/ d l. respectively, P<0.05). Mean systolic blood pressure before and after the fasting period were 11 0.3 ± 11.7 and 1132 ± 11.:2 mmHg, respectively, which did not mention any significant difference, but mean diastolic blood pressure before and after the fasting period were 78.0 ± 10.0 and 81.2 ± 9.0 mmHg, respectively (P<0.05).Conclusion: Although the diastolic blood pressure after the fasting period was significantly higher than that of before this period, the rate of this difference was very low and in the normal ranges. Like the most other studies in this issue, this study showed the increase of serum LDL after the fasting period that albeit showing no significant difference between TC concentration before and after the fasting period, but Ie concentration after this period was higher before that. Considering all these facts, it seems that the total serum cholesterol increases during the fasting period. It could be due to changing of individuals diet towards using more fatty foods during this period. Correct diet education should be considered by the authorities, medias, physicians and all the other responsibilities to prevent increasing TC concentration during this period.
