Premature development of iliac artery stenosis in asymptomatic type II hyperlipoproteinemia. [PDF]
There is conflicting evidence on the relationship between increased low density lipoprotein (LDL) concentration in Type II hyperlipoproteinemia and premature development of peripheral atherosclerosis of the lower limbs. We evaluated the early signs of iliac artery involvement in patients with asymptomatic Type II hyperlipoproteinemia. Of these, 23 were

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting on Microaxial Flow Pump Support in Patients With Severely Reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction. [PDF]
Coronary artery revascularization with microaxial flow pump support in patients with severely reduced left ventricular ejection fraction is an emerging technique in cardiac surgery. In this manuscript, we present early results, highlight the advantages, and discuss the key limitations of this approach.

2022 Consensus statement on the management of familial hypercholesterolemia in Korea [PDF]
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is the most common monogenic disorder. Due to the marked elevation of cardiovascular risk, the early detection, diagnosis, and proper management of this disorder are critical.

Role of PCSK9 Inhibitors in Patients with Familial Hypercholesterolemia [PDF]
Patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) are at high or very high risk for cardiovascular disease. Those with heterozygous FH (HeFH) often do not reach low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) targets with statin and ezetimibe therapy, and ...

Molecular diagnosis methods in familial hypercholesterolemia
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is considered the genetic cause of coronary heart disease and ischemic stroke. FH is mainly an autosomal codominant pattern-based disorder and is primarily determined by point mutations within the low-density ...

Expression of type III hyperlipoproteinemia in apolipoprotein E2 (Arg158 --> Cys) homozygotes is associated with hyperinsulinemia [PDF]
Type III hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP) is mainly found in homozygous carriers of apolipoprotein E2 (apoE2, Arg158-->Cys). Only a small percentage (< 5%) of these apoE2 homozygotes develops hyperlipidemia, indicating that additional environmental and genetic

Interaction between Glucose and Lipid Metabolism: More than Diabetic Dyslipidemia [PDF]
Glucose and lipid metabolism are linked to each other in many ways. The most important clinical manifestation of this interaction is diabetic dyslipidemia, characterized by elevated triglycerides, low high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and ...

Dynamic, Interpretable, Machine Learning-Based Outcome Prediction as a New Emerging Opportunity in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patient Care: A Proof-of-Concept Study. [PDF]
Introduction: While the machine learning (ML) model’s black‐box nature presents a significant barrier to effective clinical application, the dynamic nature of stroke patients’ recovery further undermines the reliability of established predictive scores and models, making them less suitable for accurate prediction and appropriate patient care.
