Prognostic Significance of Visit-To-Visit Variability, Maximum and Minimum LDL Cholesterol in Diabetes Mellitus
Source : https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-1102811/v1
BACKGROUND Current guidelines for dyslipidemia management recommended that the LDL_C goal could be lower to less than 70 mg/dL. The present study was to investigate the prognostic significance of the...
Conclusions: Visit-to-visit variability in LDL_C was a strong predictor of outcomes, independent of mean LDL_C. Patients with LDL_C be controlled to less than 70 mg/dl at least once during follow-up might have a benign prognosis.

Genetic Determinants of Plasma Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Levels: Monogenicity, Polygenicity, and "Missing" Heritability
Source : https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9059/9/11/1728
Changes in plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) levels relate to a high risk of developing some common and complex diseases. LDL-c, as a quantitative trait, is multifactorial and depends on...
This paper discusses other possibilities for unexplained dyslipidemias associated with LDL-c, such as mosaicism, maternal effect, and induced epigenetic changes. Future studies should consider gene–gene and gene–environment interactions and the development of integrated information about disease-driving networks, including phenotypes,...

doi: 10.1097/QAI.0000000000002869. Online ahead of print. 1 Department of Internal Medicine, University Hospitals/Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, University Hospitals/Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH Department...
Conclusions: "In this proof-of-concept study, SVM is a robust method that predicts directly measured LDL-C more accurately than clinically used methods in women with and without HIV. Further studies should explore the utility in broader populations."

Gradual increasing dyslipidemia in treatment-naive male patients with human immunodeficiency virus and treated with tenofovir plus lamivudine plus efavirenz for 3 years - Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome
Source : https://dmsjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13098-021-00756-y
Introduction Since the development of antiretroviral therapy (ART) with TDF plus 3TC plus EFV, this specific regimen has not been studied enough with long-term lipid and uric acid monitoring. Methods...
Conclusions:
"Gradual increasing dyslipidemia was found in male patients with human immunodeficiency virus primarily treated with tenofovir plus lamivudine plus efavirenz for 3 years. There-fore lipid metabolism parameters should be closely monitored during long-term ART with the TDF plus 3TC plus EFV regimen"
