Elevated postprandial triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in patients with diabetes and stable coronary artery disease correlated with early renal damage and systemic inflammation.

Background: Dyslipidaemia is key in the development of coronary heart disease (CHD) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Accumulated evidence supports that diabetic nephropathy increases the mortality risk of patients with CHD, while the influence of diabetic dyslipidaemia on renal damage in patients with DM and CHD remains unknown. Moreover, recent data indicate that postprandial dyslipidaemia has predictive value in terms of CHD prognosis, especially in patients with DM.

Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease as an Emerging Risk Factor and Potential Intervention Target for Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Diseases.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an underappreciated independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVDs). In recent years, the risk of ASCVD has increased along with the prevalence of NAFLD. ASCVD events are highly prevalent and are the main contributor to death in patients with NAFLD.
