The 2024 National Lipid Association (NLA) Scientific Sessions featured updated guidance on lipid management for women of reproductive age, complex patients, and other special populations. Presentations also included a deep dive on lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) in clinical practice as well as potential new blood markers for heart disease risk. The four-day meeting was held at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
Lipids as potential mediators linking body mass index to diabetes: evidence from a mediation analysis based on the NAGALA cohort

Our fresh findings suggested that lipid parameters partially mediated the association of BMI with diabetes risk; this result indicated that in the context of diabetes risk screening and disease management,...
Our fresh findings suggested that lipid parameters partially mediated the association of BMI with diabetes risk; this result indicated that in the context of diabetes risk screening and disease management, it is important to not only monitor BMI but also pay attention to lipid parameters, particularly HDL-C and HDL-C-related lipid ratio...
Held at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, the 2024 National Lipid Association (NLA) Scientific Sessions span four days and feature updated guidance on lipid management for complex patients and crucial drug interactions in lipid-lowering medications, plus information on clinical trials, challenges with statin tolerance, and other deep dives on the nuances of lipidology.
Patients living with HIV infection were more likely to have higher TG levels and lower HDL-C levels than those without HIV infection.
Blood Lipids, Lipoproteins, and Apolipoproteins With Risk of Coronary Heart Disease: a Prospective Study Among Racially Diverse Populations

Our study highlighted several lipoprotein biomarkers, including apolipoprotein B/ apolipoprotein A1 ratio, apolipoprotein B, and low-density lipoprotein-triglycerides, strongly and consistently associated with incident CHD. Our results suggest that comprehensive lipoprotein...
