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.

Lipoproteins constitute a set of proteins and lipids, organized to facilitate the transport of lipids through blood plasma. Elevated or decreased levels of these lipoproteins may be related to genetic alterations in 40% to 60% of cases.1 This fact explains why it is common to find lipid abnormalities in several members of the same family.

Treatment of dyslipidemia [PDF]
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (including coronary heart disease, stroke and peripheral arterial disease) is the leading cause of death globally. Abnormal blood lipids (dyslipidemia), smoking, and high blood pressure are responsible for more than 75% of cases.

Novel findings in relation to multiple anti-atherosclerotic effects of XueZhiKang in humans
Background: Previous studies have clearly demonstrated that XueZhiKang (XZK), an extract of cholestin, can decrease low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and cardiovascular events. However, the mechanism of the effects of XZK on atherosclerosis (AS)

Recently, considerable progress has been made in understanding the genetic basis of dyslipidemias and in studying the safety and efficacy of lipid-lowering drugs for coronary heart disease (CHD) prevention. Novel loci have been identified for monogenic hypercholesterolemia, such as low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor (LDLR)-associated protein ...
