World Heart Federation Cholesterol Roadmap 2022

Kausik K. Ray et al.

Summary: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) continue to be major causes of premature death, disability, and healthcare expenditure globally. Preventing the accumulation of cholesterol-containing atherogenic lipoproteins in the vessel wall is crucial for preventing ASCVD. This article provides an updated cholesterol roadmap that outlines key principles for effective ASCVD prevention, identifies gaps in intervention implementation, highlights health system barriers in LMICs, and suggests potential strategies for overcoming these barriers.

HighTGtoHDLratio plays a significant role on atherosclerosis extension in prediabetes and newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes subjects

Roberto Scicali et al.

Summary: The study investigated the association between TG/HDL ratio and atherosclerosis extension in prediabetes and newly diagnosed T2D patients. Results showed that higher TG/HDL ratio was linked to increased prevalence of CAC and femoral plaque, suggesting TG/HDL could serve as a useful marker for predicting cardiovascular risk.

Lipid reference values in an Irish population

Diarmaid Hughes et al.

Summary: This study provides information on lipid distribution in an Irish population, showing sex-related differences in lipid levels emerging before the age of 20 and persisting throughout life. Total and LDL cholesterol levels increase towards middle age and decrease towards old age. Triglyceride levels show a positive skew, particularly in middle-aged males.

Triglyceride to HDL-Cholesterol Ratio and the Incident Risk of Ischemic Heart Disease Among Koreans Without Diabetes: A Longitudinal Study Using National Health Insurance Data

Byoungjin Park et al.

Summary: The study found that in Koreans without diabetes, an increased TG/HDL-C precedes future IHD. Additionally, TG/HDL-C has a stronger predictive value for IHD compared to metabolic syndrome, and sex differences need to be seriously considered when assessing cardiovascular risks in clinical practice.

Triglyceride-Rich Lipoprotein Remnants and Cardiovascular Disease

Edward K. Duran et al.

Summary: This review focuses on the role of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein (TRL) remnants in atherosclerosis, highlighting key metabolic mechanisms and assay methods. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that TRL remnants play a central role in residual cardiovascular risk.

Decreased plasma lipid levels in a statin-free Danish primary health care cohort between 2001 and 2018

Anna E. Engell et al.

Summary: Lipid levels in blood have decreased significantly in the general population due to the use of statins. This trend was observed in primary health care patients who were not using statins from 2001 to 2018, with substantial decreases in total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, especially in the elderly population.

Decreased Efficiency of Very-Low-Density Lipoprotein Lipolysis Is Linked to Both Hypertriglyceridemia and Hypercholesterolemia, but It Can Be Counteracted by High-Density Lipoprotein

Ewa Wieczorek et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia on the efficiency of lipoprotein lipase-mediated VLDL-triglyceride lipolysis, as well as the role of HDL in this process. The results showed that VLDL from patients with hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia are more resistant to lipolysis, with HDL helping to enhance the efficiency of lipolysis in these groups.

Anand Rohatgi et al.

Summary: Low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is associated with adverse lifestyle choices, cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory disorders, and other conditions. Therapeutic strategies targeting HDL-C levels have not been successful, and future focus should be on optimizing HDL function for better outcomes.

Triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and their remnants: metabolic insights, role in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and emerging therapeutic strategies-a consensus statement from the European Atherosclerosis Society

Henry N. Ginsberg et al.

Summary: Recent research supports a causal association between triglycerides, triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, and their remnants with cardiovascular diseases, emphasizing the importance of focusing on their impact on heart health. Targeting levels of triglycerides and their remnants may potentially reduce the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases.

Multi-trajectories of lipid indices with incident cardiovascular disease, heart failure, and all-cause mortality: 23 years follow-up of two US cohort studies

Fatemeh Koohi et al.

Summary: The study identified seven distinct multi-trajectories of blood lipid levels and found that individuals with rising triglyceride levels over time, even with optimal LDL-C levels, faced a significantly increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Despite the decline in LDL-C levels, there remained a considerable residual risk for CVD, emphasizing the importance of monitoring and potentially lowering triglyceride concentrations to reduce this risk.

Torunn Varmdal et al.

Summary: The study aimed to assess the accuracy and completeness of acute myocardial infarction (MI) diagnoses in the Norwegian Myocardial Infarction Register and the Norwegian Patient Register. The results showed that both registers had highly accurate and complete MI diagnoses, with a combination of the two registers providing the most comprehensive data source overall.

Association Between Cumulative Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Exposure During Young Adulthood and Middle Age and Risk of Cardiovascular Events

Yiyi Zhang et al.

Summary: This study found that cumulative LDL-C and TWA LDL-C during young adulthood and middle age were associated with the risk of incident coronary heart disease (CHD), independent of midlife LDL-C levels. These findings suggest that past levels of LDL-C may inform strategies for primary prevention of CHD and that maintaining optimal LDL-C levels at an earlier age may reduce the lifetime risk of developing atherosclerotic CVD.
