Triglycerides and Cardiovascular Risk
In 1996 a meta-analysis was published showing that an increase in plasma triglyceride (TG) levels was associated with an increase in CHD risk, even after adjustment for high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. Very recently, two studies were published that further extent the early observation and showed the importance of nonfasting plasma triglyceride (TG) levels in the prediction o...
متن کاملTriglycerides and cardiovascular disease.
After the introduction of statins, clinical emphasis first focussed on LDL cholesterol-lowering, then on the potential for raising HDL cholesterol, with less focus on lowering triglycerides. However, the understanding from genetic studies and negative results from randomised trials that low HDL cholesterol might not cause cardiovascular disease as originally thought has now generated renewed in...
متن کاملHyperinsulinemia, Sex, and Risk of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease
Background. The possibility that hyperinsulinemia may be involved in the etiology of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVID) was first suggested 20 years ago. During the last decade, this possibility has received support from three large prospective studies. Methods and Results. In the present study, the association between CVID, glucose intolerance, obesity, and hypertension (the GOH con...
متن کاملRisk stratification of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in Chinese adults
OBJECTIVE This study aims to determine the distribution of observed atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) incidence in contemporary cohorts in China, and to identify cut-off points for ASCVD risk classification based on traditional criteria and new equations developed by Prediction for ASCVD Risk in China (China-PAR). METHODS The study populations included cohorts in the China-PAR pr...
متن کاملAtherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk and Evidence-based Management of Cholesterol
An elevated level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is directly associated with development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, which may present as coronary heart disease, stroke, and peripheral arterial disease. The new cholesterol management guidelines from the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association aim to address a comprehensive approach to prevent and...
