TL;DR: In the WHI, statins were associated with a lower overall risk of DLBCL, particularly attributable to lipophilic statins, which may have impact on primary or secondary prevention of NHL, particularlyDLBCL.

TL;DR: Fertility rates in American Indian women are high, but appear to be decreasing in younger generations, and there was a significant inverse linear relationship of both education and income with fertility.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the higher triglyceride concentrations in Mexico City residents that are associated with a higher carbohydrate diet may not be associated with atherogenic changes in LDL.

TL;DR: Public health and clinical initiatives focused on monitoring TC in middle-adulthood may miss important shifts away from ideal and intermediate LDL-C, potentially increasing the duration, perhaps by decades, that large segments of the population are exposed to suboptimal HDL-C.

TL;DR: Subcutaneous abdominal fat tissue obtained after an overnight fast and then after four days of fasting indicates that abdominal adipocytes after a four-day fast are metabolically adapted towards increasedneutral glyceride mobilization by reducing glucose incorporation into neutral glycerides, increasing sensitivity of lipolysis to isoproterenol, and increasing basallipolysis.
