title: [Mixed hyperlipidemia resistant to ordinary dietetic and medical treatment. 30 cases].
abstract: From 30 cases of mixed hyperlipidemia which were resistant to apparently correctly managed treatment, combining an adapted diet and Clofibrate, the authors confirmed that there is no specific clinical or laboratory picture in these cases: except for the constant presence of two beta-lipoproteins, with a high percentage of slow pre-beta, on electrophoresis on agarose, persisting throughout the length of inactive treatment. Analysis of the factors of resistance, whether exogenous and/or endogenous show that: bad adhesion to the "anticholesterol" diet (persistance of the supply of alcohol and/or sugar, insufficiency of unsaturated fats) and the incomplete reduction of a residual plethoric overload however minimal, constitute the two factors of resistance which are most easily picked out and overcome, but such factors are fat to be constantly causal. And in other cases, the contribution of drug interference or of considerable glycoregulation disorder remains to be excluded or discussed. In the absence of such factors or of their decisive role, a more specific cause of metabolic resistance had to be looked for. A disorder in Clofibrate mechanism, detected by gaseous chromatography in the form of an abnormal peak at C15 (clofibric acid) is found 12 hours or more after the last ingestion of the drug in certain cases. Binding of this molecule with VLDL, and perhaps with slow pre-betalipoprotens and nolonger with albumin, could explain the fault in metabolic clearance and in good metabolic utilization of this drug.
