title: [Oral fat tolerance test in obese patients].
abstract: 19 adipose patients, 10 of them women, underwent an oral fat tolerance test with circa 50 g triglycerides. Before the loading test as well as 2 and 4 hours after it the serum lipids were determined. While in the cholesterol components (including the index of arteriosclerosis) no significant shiftings were the result, after 2 hours in the triglycerides a significant increase (p less than 0.05) by 21% from 1.62 +/- 0.76 to 1.96 +/- 0.91 mmol/l could be stated. The further increase after 4 hours by 10% was not significant. A standardized fat tolerance test concerning the triglycerides is apparently better suited for the estimation of the atherogenic risk than the determination of the fasting value alone.-By an additional determination of LPL and insulin as key enzyme and hormone, respectively, probably better statements could be made, which under equal conditions explain the interindividual differences of adipose persons in weight gain and weight reduction.
