Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis related to dyslipidemia. Although the terms hyperlipidemia and Diabetes Mellitus [DM] or diabetic dyslipidemia are interrelated to each other, these two conditions have some differences.
Aim: This study aimed to highlight possible mechanisms of hyperlipidemia and/or dyslipidemia in diabetic patients, which can be treated with available and newer hypolipidemic drugs.

Statin intolerance and myopathy is a major issue with prolonged use of statins myopathy. Bempedoic acid can be a good alternative for those intolerant to statins. This systematic review aims to observe incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and other adverse events, in high-risk statin intolerant patients receiving bempedoic acid.

After screening more than 1300 articles, we highlight a selection of important cardiology articles published in 2023. Starting with prevention, we note articles that look at the effect of semaglutide in patients with obesity as well as a first-in-class drug, bempedoic acid, on cardiovascular outcomes.

According to current guidelines, the selection and intensity of lipid-effective therapies are based on the risk to be treated. The sole clinical categories of primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases result in over- and under-treatment, which may be a contributory cause of incomplete implementation of current guidelines in everyday practice. For the extent of benefit in cardiovascular outcome studies with lipid-lowering drugs, the importance of dyslipdemia for the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis-related diseases is crucial.
