Studies on the regulation of plasma cholesterol levels in squirrel monkeys of two genotypes
Journal of Lipid Research, 1972 Certain individual squirrel monkeys (“hyporesponders”) are able to remain normocholesterolemic when fed diets containing cholesterol (0.5 mg/kcal). Other squirrel monkeys (“hyperresponders”) when fed the same diet become hypercholesterolemic. The purpose

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α polymorphisms and postprandial lipemia in healthy men
Journal of Lipid Research, 2007 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that plays a key role in lipid and glucose homeostasis. This study evaluated whether variants of PPARα are associated with postprandial lipemia. Subjects were

Acute lower limb ischemia due to thrombo-embolic arterial occlusions in two previously healthy men with markedly elevated Lp(a) [PDF]
, 2006 Lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) is a well-documented risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Its role in acute thrombo-embolic occlusions of peripheral arteries is not known.

Statin's role on blood pressure levels: Meta‐analysis based on randomized controlled trials
The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2023 Statins have been proven to be effective in minimizing the risk of cardiovascular adverse events, however, their effect on BP variability is debatable with respect to their significance and their use as a potential anti‐hypertensive.
