Dyslipidemia Management

Continuum, 2011
: Numerous studies have been conducted in the past decade evaluating the use of statins and other lipid therapies for reducing vascular events. These studies have impacted the area of stroke prevention.: For patients with established coronary artery disease, statins reduce the rate of stroke. High-dose statin treatment has also been found to reduce the

PPARα and dyslipidemia

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2007
Dyslipidemia is defined by abnormal levels of plasma lipoproteins. Several different types of dyslipidemia can be distinguished. An important group of drugs used in the treatment of dyslipidemia are the fibrates. Fibrates serve as agonists for the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR¿), a ligand-activated transcription factor that ...

Diabetic dyslipidemia

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1998
Usual risk factors for coronary artery disease account for only 25-50% of increased atherosclerotic risk in diabetes mellitus. Other obvious risk factors are hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia. However, hyperglycemia is a very late stage in the sequence of events from insulin resistance to frank diabetes, whereas lipoprotein abnormalities are manifested ...

Dyslipidemia in PCOS

Steroids, 2012
Life-long apolipoprotein lipid metabolic dysfunction in women with PCOS exaggerates the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) with aging. The dysfunction has involved insulin resistance (IR), which occurs in most women with PCOS. Women with PCOS have androgen excess, IR, variable amounts of estrogen exposure, and many environmental factors, all of ...

Dyslipidemia

2012
Abstract Abnormal cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism, together with endothelial injury are the major progenitors of atherosclerosis, the leading cause of obstructive coronary artery and vascular diseases worldwide. Dyslipidemia in particular is considered an essential risk factor because atherosclerotic plaques are formed in large ...
