Fasting serum cholesterol, triglycerides, thyroxine, triiodothyronine, uric acid, gastrin, and insulin were measured in a group of 24 Muslims at the beginning and end of Ramadan--the Muslim month of fasting. There was a significant increase in the levels of total serum cholesterol, thyroxine, and uric acid and a significant fall in body weight. There was no significant change in the levels of total serum triglycerides, triiodothyronine, gastrin, insulin (fasting), or in the rise in gastrin or insulin 1/2 h after food. These changes, although unlikely to affect normal people, may be significant in patients. Physicians working in Muslim countries should be aware that Ramadan may affect some laboratory findings.
在斋月（穆斯林的禁食月）开始和结束时，对24名穆斯林进行了空腹血清胆固醇、甘油三酯、甲状腺素、三碘甲状腺原氨酸、尿酸、胃泌素和胰岛素的检测。血清总胆固醇、甲状腺素和尿酸水平显著升高，体重显著下降。血清总甘油三酯、三碘甲状腺原氨酸、胃泌素、胰岛素（空腹）水平，或进食后半小时胃泌素或胰岛素的升高均无显著变化。这些变化虽然不太可能影响正常人，但对患者可能意义重大。在穆斯林国家工作的医生应意识到斋月可能会影响一些实验室检查结果。
