Free fatty acids and cardiovascular outcome: a Chinese cohort study on stable coronary artery disease

open access: yesNutrition & Metabolism, 2017
Background Studies have revealed that plasma level of free fatty acids (FFAs) is related to cardiovascular disease. However, the role of FFAs in clinical outcomes of stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) has been less evaluated.

Clinical outcome of a patient with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency and first results after initiation of treatment with Sebelipase alfa: A case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We report on a case of very rare autosomal recessive cholesteryl ester storage disease due to lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LALD). LALD is caused by mutations in the lysosomal acid lipase A (LIPA) gene resulting in cholesteryl ester accumulation in

Circulating PCSK9 and cardiovascular events in FH patients with standard lipid-lowering therapy

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2019
Background Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) has been proposed as a novel target for coronary artery disease (CAD). Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is characterized by high prevalence of CAD and major cardiovascular events (MACEs ...

Association of plasma free fatty acids levels with the presence and severity of coronary and carotid atherosclerotic plaque in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

open access: yesBMC Endocrine Disorders, 2020
Background Previous studies have suggested that patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have higher prevalence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), and plasma levels of free fatty acids (FFAs) are a useful marker for predicting ASCVD.
