Background/purpose: Dyslipidemia, a hallmark of metabolic syndrome (MetS), contributes to atherosclerotic and cardiometabolic disorders. Due to days-long analysis, current clinical procedures for cardiotoxic blood lipid monitoring are unmet. This study used AI-assisted attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy to identify MetS and precisely quantify multiple blood lipid levels with a blood sample of 0.

Introduction: The contribution of obesity phenotypes to dyslipidaemia in middle-aged adults from four sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries at different stages of the epidemiological transition has not been reported. We characterized lipid levels and investigated their relation with the growing burden of obesity in SSA countries.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Burkina Faso, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa.

Background: Lipids are known to be involved in carcinogenesis, but the associations between lipid profiles and different lung cancer histological classifications remain unknown.
Methods: Individuals who participated in national adult health surveillance from 2012 to 2018 were included. For patients who developed lung cancer during follow-up, a 1:2 control group of nonlung cancer participants was selected after matching.

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) discovery has added a new paradigm to our understanding of cholesterol homeostasis and lipid metabolism. Since its discovery, PCSK9 inhibitors have become a widely investigated therapeutic class for lipid management in cardiovascular diseases and hypercholesterolemia. Scientists have explored different approaches for PCSK9 inhibition, such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), gene silencing and gene editing techniques, vaccines, mimetic peptides, and small molecules.
