To appreciate hyperlipidaemia as a contributing factor to reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD), we have evaluated basal lipidic values (cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoproteins A1, B) and frequency of hypertriglyceridaemia (Turpin's diagnosis criteria) in 75 cases of RSD and in 75 paired controls. No difference exists in both groups with regard to frequency of hypertriglyceridaemia or basal lipidic values. These values seem independent of age, sex, duration of localization or etiology (traumatic or nontraumatic) of RSD. Hyperlipidaemia does not seem a contributing factor to RSD.

Introduction: LDL-cholesterol greater than 190 mg/dL indicates severe hypercholesterolemia (HS) of monogenic and/or polygenic origin. Genetic risk scores (GRS) evaluate potential polygenic causes.
Objective: we applied a GRS of 6-SNP (GRS-6) in HS individuals.

Hyperlipidemia is a common endocrine metabolic disease in humans. Long-term medications often have adverse effects, making the search for safer and more effective treatments crucial. This study aimed to explore the impacts and mechanisms of HY127 fermentation on enhancing bile acid-binding capacity (BABC).

Objective: Cardiometabolic risk factors significantly contribute to disease burden. This study explored the effects of hypertension (HTN), diabetes mellitus (DM), and hyperlipidemia (HLP) on mortality. It stratified findings by age group and comorbidity severity using the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, with oxidative stress playing a pivotal role in its progression. Free radicals produced via oxidative stress contribute to lipid peroxidation, leading to subsequent inflammatory responses, which then result in atherosclerosis. Antioxidants inhibit these harmful effects through their reducing ability, thereby preventing oxidative damage.

Introduction: Metabolic disorders (type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, hyperglycaemia, obesity, hyperlipidaemia, hypertension, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and metabolic syndrome) are leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide. These disorders disproportionately affect older adults relative to those younger. Digital health technologies (DHTs), such as patient monitoring, digital diagnostics and digital therapeutics, emerge as promising tools for health promotion in day-to-day life.
