National Lipid Association Scientific Sessions

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.

A Preview of the National Lipid Association Scientific Sessions

The National Lipid Association (NLA) will host its annual scientific sessions in Las Vegas from May 30 to June 2, 2024. The mission of the NLA is to enhance the practice of lipid management in clinical practice, and attendees of the scientific sessions will explore lipid management for complex patients, the evolving landscape of clinical trials, challenges of patient statin tolerance, and drug interactions with lipid-lowering medications, among other topics.

The Association Between the Triglyceride-Glucose Index and the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in US Population Aged ≤ 65 Years With Prediabetes or Diabetes: a Population-Based Study

The Association Between the Triglyceride-Glucose Index and the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in US Population Aged ≤ 65 Years With Prediabetes or Diabetes: a Population-Based Study

Source : https://cardiab.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12933-024-02261-8

Background The relationship between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the U.S. population under 65 years of age with diabetes or prediabetes is unknown....

The triglyceride-glucose index can be used as a valid predictor of early CV risk in diabetic and prediabetic patients aged <65 years in the United States.

Plasma Lipidomic Profiling Identifies Elevated Triglycerides as Potential Risk Factor in Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

Plasma Lipidomic Profiling Identifies Elevated Triglycerides as Potential Risk Factor in Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

Elevated baseline plasma TG is associated with an increased risk of CIPN development and warrants further validation in other cohorts. Ultimately, this may enable therapeutic intervention.

The higher risk lipid profile had several elevated TG species and was independently associated with dose reduction/chemotherapy discontinuation when modeled with other clinical factors

Current Diagnosis and Management of Familial Hypobetalipoproteinemia 1

Current Diagnosis and Management of Familial Hypobetalipoproteinemia 1

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38710625/

Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL) 1 is a rare genetic disorder with an autosomal codominant mode of inheritance and is caused by defects in the apolipoprotein (apo) B (APOB) gene that disable...

Although homozygous or compound heterozygotes of familial type 1 hypobetalipoproteinemia (HoFHBL1) and abetalipoproteinemia cannot be distinguished from the clinical manifestations and laboratory findings of the proband, moderate hypolipidemia in first-degree relatives may help diagnose HoFHBL1.
