Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnosis and management of the metabolic syndrome. An American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Scientific Statement. Executive summary.

TL;DR: The metabolic risk factors consist of atherogenic dyslipidemia (elevated triglycerides and apolipoprotein B, small LDL particles, and low HDL cholesterol [HDL-C] concentrations), elevated blood pressure, elevated plasma glucose, a prothrombotic state, and a proinflammatory state as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple rare variants in NPC1L1 associated with reduced sterol absorption and plasma low-density lipoprotein levels.

TL;DR: A genetic architecture for LDL-C levels that does not conform to current models for quantitative traits is revealed and it is indicated that a significant fraction of genetic variance in HDL-C is due to multiple alleles with modest effects that are present at low frequencies in the population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Principles for National and Regional Guidelines on Cardiovascular Disease Prevention A Scientific Statement From the World Heart and Stroke Forum

TL;DR: The recommendations in this report focus on clinical management of patients with established CVD and those at high risk; however, it is essential that each country include a societal approach to CVD prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Obesity, metabolic syndrome, and coronary atherosclerosis

TL;DR: The relationship between obesity and coronary atherosclerosis (and coronary heart disease [CHD]) has been a subject of some dispute for many years and multivariate analysis of Framingham data strongly suggests that most of the relationship between body weight and CHD risk is mediated through the standard, major risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Guide to Preventive Cardiology for Women

TL;DR: The purpose of this statement is to highlight risk factor management strategies that are appropriate for women with a broad range of CHD risk, and to highlight clinicians are missing opportunities to prevent CHD.
