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.

Genetics of Dyslipidemia

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2016
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]

open access: yesF1000Prime Reports, 2014
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

open access: yesChronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, 2018
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)

Clinicopathological Characteristics and Outcomes of Immunoglobulin A Nephropathy with Different Types of Dyslipidemia: A Retrospective Single-Center Study

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2023
Introduction: Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is one of the most common glomerulonephritic diseases in the world. Several lines of evidence have suggested that dyslipidemia is related to the disease progression and prognosis of IgAN.

Update on Dyslipidemia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2007
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 ...
