Diabetic dyslipidemia.
Diabetic dyslipidemia is characterized by elevated fasting and postprandial triglycerides, low HDL-cholesterol, elevated LDL-cholesterol and the predominance of small dense LDL particles. These lipid changes represent the major link between diabetes and the increased cardiovascular risk of diabetic patients. The underlying pathophysiology is only partially understood. Alterations of insulin sen...
متن کاملDiabetic Dyslipidemia
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a significant cause of illness, disability, and death among individuals with diabetes. The macrovascular complications of diabetes— Coronary Heart Disease (CHD), Cerebro Vascular Accidents (CVA), and Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)— all being different facets of the same vascular damage – account for more than 70% of all deaths in individuals with diabetes. CVD...
متن کاملThyroid Status and Dyslipidemia in Type 2 Diabetic and Non-Diabetic Population
Abstract Objective: Thyroid dysfunction complicates the metabolic derangement observed in Diabetes Mellitus (DM). It is necessary to recognize and treat it, when present, in order to achieve stability of metabolic control in these patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of DM on thyroid hormone levels and other biochemical variables. Materials and Methods: To determine...
متن کاملThe Effect of Aggressive Versus Standard Lipid Lowering by Atorvastatin on Diabetic Dyslipidemia The DALI Study: a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in patients with type 2 diabetes and diabetic dyslipidemia THE DIABETES ATORVASTATIN LIPID INTERVENTION (DALI) STUDY GROUP
OBJECTIVE — In patients with type 2 diabetes, intensive glucose regulation, although effective for microangiopathy, has not been shown to have unambiguous preventive effects on the occurrence of cardiovascular disease. Patients with diabetes show a characteristic dyslipidemia (high triglyceride level, low HDL cholesterol level). Aggressive reduction of triglycerides might be an effective method...
متن کاملManagement of diabetic dyslipidemia.
Identification and management of dyslipidemia is an important element in the multi-factorial approach to prevent coronary heart disease. Diabetic dyslipidemia typically consists of elevated triglyceride, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, predominance of small, dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles, and average LDL cholesterol (LDL-C). Lipid-lowering therapy has a beneficial effe...
