Recent studies have indicated that cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) is closely linked to dyslipidemia and early-onset coronary artery disease (EOCAD). This study is aimed at investigating the impacts of gene variants on lipid profiles and EOCAD risk. PubMed, Cochrane Library, Central, CINAHL, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched until June 15, 2024. In total, 25 studies (11,494 individuals) were included for the analysis. The A allele carriers of the rs1761667 variant had higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and higher EOCAD risk than noncarriers. In contrast, the G allele carriers of the rs1049673 and rs3211956 variants had lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and lower EOCAD risk than noncarriers. Subgroup analysis indicated that the antiatherosclerotic impact and reduced EOCAD risk were primarily observed in Chinese with rs1049673 and rs3211956. The rs1761667, rs1049673, and rs3211956 variants of the gene have significant impacts on lipid levels and may serve as genetic markers for the risk of EOCAD primarily in Chinese. The impacts of variants on EOCAD risk are mediated, at least partly, by dyslipidemia. Genetic screening of gene variants may be helpful for early intervention or prevention of EOCAD in individuals with high risk factors.

Objective: Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with increased risk of atherosclerosis by disrupting key cellular processes that contribute to premature vascular ageing. However, the specific role of mitochondrial dysfunction in early-onset coronary artery disease (EOCAD), which is increasing at a particularly alarming rate, remains largely unexplored. This study investigated the association of leukocyte mtDNA-CN and mtDNA deletion with the risk of EOCAD.

Aims: Despite the tremendous improvement in therapeutic medication and intervention for coronary atherosclerotic disease (CAD), residual risks remain. Exome sequencing enables identification of rare variants and susceptibility genes for residual risks of early-onset coronary atherosclerotic disease (EOCAD) with well-controlled conventional risk factors.
Methods: We performed whole-exome sequencing of subjects who had no conventional risk factors, defined as higher body mass index, smoking, hypertension and dyslipidemia, screened from 1950 patients with EOCAD (age ≤ 45 years, at least 50% stenosis of coronary artery by angiography), and selected control subjects from 1006 elder (age ≥ 65 years) with < 30% coronary stenosis.

Background: Serum gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) activity has been proposed as a promising predictor of atherosclerosis-related complications and a prognostic marker for cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential correlation between serum levels of GGT and early-onset coronary artery disease (EOCAD).
Methods: A retrospective, hospital-based case-control study was conducted, which included 860 patients with EOCAD and gender- and age-matched controls.

Background: Early diagnosis and treatment effectiveness of early-onset coronary artery disease (EOCAD) are crucial, and non-invasive predictive biomarkers are needed for young adults. We aimed to evaluate the usefulness of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a novel marker of insulin resistance, in identifying young CAD patients and predicting their risk of developing target lesion failure (TLF).
Methods: We recruited EOCAD patients (luminal narrowing ≥ 70%) and controls free from CAD (luminal narrowing < 30%), both aged 45 years or younger, from 38 hospitals in China between 2017 and 2020.
