چکیده
Multiple epidemiologic studies have demonstrated the relationship between cardiovascular mortality and elevated plasma cholesterol levels. Lipid-lowering therapy, particularly with hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins), has demonstrated survival benefit in both primary prevention (patients without evidence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease [ASCVD]) and secondary prevention (patients with evidence of ASCVD). As a result, screening, risk stratifying, and treating dyslipidemia have become integral parts of preventive cardiovascular medicine.

متن کاملThe Effect of Amino Acid, Carbohydrate, and Lipid Metabolism Disorders on Eyes
Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) are a class of genetic disorders. Each metabolic disorder may have different forms with different age of onset, clinical manifestations, severity, and even type of inheritance. Ideally, a group of different specialists, including ophthalmologists, pediatricians, biochemists, and medical geneticists are needed for the final diagnosis and management of IMDs. B...
متن کاملStatins: Newer Roles Including Lipid Lowering Therapy
Statins are most effective pharmacologically agents to decrease total plasma cholesterol level by competitive inhibition of HMG-Co A reductase. Apart from the well-known LDL and cholesterol lowering effect, statins have been postulated to exert other beneficial effects also called pleotropic or non-lipid effects. Better understanding of various pleotropic effects of statins has prompted a new s...

متن کاملAnalysis of Censored Survival Data with Dimension Reduction Methods: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. To specify an appropriate model to determine the risk of CVD and predict survival rate, users are required to specify a functional form which relates the outcome variables to the input ones. In this paper, we proposed a dimension reduction method using a general model, which includes many widely used survival m...
