Lipid-based eye drop formulations for the management of evaporative dry eyes

Lipid-based eye drop formulations for the management of evaporative dry eyes

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38523013/

Dry eye disease is a progressive prevalent ocular surface disorder that arises from various factors and is characterized by insufficient quality and/or quantity of tears. The underlying pathophysiology is intricate...

Lipid-based eye drops show potential for treating evaporative dry eyes, but further placebo-controlled trials and innovations are needed to optimize formulations and effectiveness in replicating natural tear lipids.

Lipid-lowering in diabetes: An update

Lipid-lowering in diabetes: An update

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37945448/

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is accelerated in people with diabetes. Dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, oxidative stress, and inflammation play a role via a variety of mechanisms operative in the artery wall. In...

Effective management of dyslipidemia in T2DM patients is crucial to prevent ASCVD, focusing on significant LDL-C reduction and comprehensive lowering of apo B-containing lipoproteins. Emerging therapies, including ASO and RNA-based treatments, offer additional cardiovascular benefits.
