Comprehensive Review of Lipid Management in Chronic Kidney Disease and Hemodialysis Patients: Conventional Approaches, and Challenges for Cardiovascular Risk Reduction.
J Clin Med
January 2025
Department of Medicine, Division of Nephrology, Northwell Health, Staten Island University Hospital, Staten Island, NY 10305, USA.
: Lipid disorders are very prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), leading to heightened cardiovascular risk. This review examines the effectiveness of lipid-lowering agents in these populations and explores gaps in the current research. The goal of this review is to assess the efficacy of lipid-lowering therapies in CKD and ESRD patients and identify future research needs.

Cardiovascular Department, Fondazione Poliambulanza, 25124 Brescia, Italy.
This study assessed the proportion of secondary cardiovascular prevention patients who achieved low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol targets as per the 2019 ESC/EAS Dyslipidemia Guidelines. We also evaluated whether lipid-lowering therapies (LLTs) were adjusted in patients not meeting targets and analyzed the likelihood of these modifications achieving recommended levels. A multicenter, cross-sectional observational study retrospectively reviewed medical records of 1909 outpatients in 9 Italian cardiac rehabilitation/secondary prevention clinics from January 2023 to June 2024.

: Sitosterolemia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by diverse clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic cases to the development of xanthomas, hypercholesterolemia, premature atherosclerosis, or even sudden death during childhood. It results from homozygous or compound heterozygous pathogenic variants in the or genes. Prompt detection and intervention are essential to managing this condition and preventing severe outcomes.

January 2025
Department of Life & Consumer Sciences, College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences, University of South Africa, Cnr. Pioneer and Christiaan de Wet Roads, B2-010 Calabash Building, Florida, Johannesburg 1710, South Africa.
Background: Ezetimibe is used to treat cardiovascular disease as it blocks the sterol transporter Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1CL1) protein. However, recent evidence indicates that Ezetimibe inhibits several cancers indirectly by reducing circulating cholesterol or via specific signalling pathways.
Methods And Results: Our in silico studies indicate that Ezetimibe binds to the Tp53 binding domain in Mdm2, forming a more thermodynamically stable complex than nutlin3a.
Variation in lipoprotein(a) response to potent lipid lowering: The role of apolipoprotein (a) isoform size.

Center for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease, Leon H. Charney Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, NYU Grossman School of Medicine. 530 First Avenue, HCC5, New York, NY 10016, USA. Electronic address:
Background: Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a driver of residual cardiovascular risk. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors (PCSK9i) decrease Lp(a) with significant heterogeneity in response. We investigated contributors to the heterogeneous response.
