We report a case who presented to us with dyspnea and was found to have ML in the absence of steroid use, diabetes, Cushing syndrome and obesity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In support of this concept, recent analysis of the data of the Air Force/Texas Coronary Atherosclerosis Prevention Study (AFCAPS/TexCAPS) shows that baseline LDL-C, HDL-C, and apoB were significant predictors of first acute major coronary events but that [ahajournals.org]

Patients with the homozygous form of familial hypercholesterolemia may have arcus corneae, tendinous xanthomas and xanthelasma plus planar or tuberous xanthomas. Planar xanthomas are flat or slightly raised yellowish patches. [msdmanuals.com]
Case 3 An 11-year-old girl presented with palmar xanthomas ( figure 1 ) and tubero-eruptive xanthomas of both elbows. Based on these clinical signs, she was diagnosed with type III HLP. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

OBJECTIVE: To identify the changes caused by dyslipidemia and obesity in pregnancy suggesting causes for premature birth, and the prognosis for the newborn. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology
Etiology: The prevalence of dyslipidemia in children age 12-19 was reported as approximately 20.3% in the CDC Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. [utmb.edu]
The identification of gene-diet associations is likely to provide useful information about the etiology of postmenopausal dyslipidemia and help in effective treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiology
Long-term, prospective epidemiologic studies have consistently shown that persons with healthier lifestyles and fewer risk factors for coronary heart disease, and particularly those with favorable lipid profiles, have reduced incidence of coronary heart [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology
The endothelial changes that best illuminate the regional pathophysiology of atherosclerosis are not the different levels of NO and other molecular signals, but the regional reorganization of endothelial phenotypes in reaction to local hemodynamic forces [intechopen.com]
In that respect, our cohort allows perhaps the best possible model of this pathophysiologic complication of CKD in humans, making our findings generalizable to other populations with CKD.” – by Melissa J. [healio.com]

Clinical features Typically no specific signs or symptoms Skin manifestations Xanthoma : nodular lipid deposits in the skin and tendons Pathophysiology: Extremely high levels of triglycerides and/or LDL result in extravasation of plasma lipoproteins [amboss.com]
Dyslipidemia and arterial hypertension share some common pathophysiological mechanisms, thus treating one of them also modifies the other one. The optimal effect is achieved by adequate treatment of both risk factors. [medix.hr]
