Association of birth weight with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the mediating role of fatty acids traits: a two-step mendelian randomization study
Observational studies have suggested an association between birth weight and type 2 diabetes mellitus, but the causality between them has not been established. We aimed to obtain the causal relationship betwee... (Source: Lipids in Health and Disease)

Application of implementation science for improving the utilization of an international clinical practice guidance on familial hypercholesterolemia
Implementation science evolved into a field of research to accelerate the translation of evidence into practice (1,2). While major advances have been made to reduce the time for evidence to be translated into practice, there has been less progress on improving the uptake of clinical practice guidelines. Several guidelines (3-12) and position statements (13-15) in cardiovascular disease have recommended that implementation science approaches be used to address gaps in care. More recently, models have been developed for guideline contributors to embed implementation recommendations into the guideline development and translat...

A focused update to the 2019 NLA scientific statement on use of lipoprotein(a) in clinical practice
The lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] field is rapidly evolving on many fronts, warranting this focused update to the 2019 National Lipid Association (NLA) Scientific Statement on Use of Lipoprotein(a) in Clinical Practice.1 Recent evidence has influenced our understanding of whom should have Lp(a) levels measured, how to interpret Lp(a) levels for use in risk assessment, and clinical management of patients with elevated Lp(a). The NLA now recommends: (1) measurement of Lp(a) levels at least once in every adult; (2) classification of individuals with Lp(a) levels (Source: Journal of Clinical Lipidology)

Detecting Familial Hypercholesterolemia: An Observational Study Leveraging Mandatory Universal Pediatric Total Cholesterol Screening in Slovakia
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal-dominant inherited disorder that is often underdiagnosed and undertreated. FH is characterized by a lifelong exposure to high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), which causes early and accelerated atherogenesis. Patients with genetically defined FH have a risk of coronary heart disease that is>10-fold than that of the general population, and a 3-fold increased risk of cardiovascular disease at the same LDL-C level.1 The relative cardiovascular risk patients with FH is highest between the ages of 25 and 40 years.

The role of genetically-influenced phospholipid transfer protein activity in lipoprotein metabolism and coronary artery disease
The phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) facilitates the transfer of surface phospholipids between lipoprotein particles. For example, during the lipolytic conversion of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs), PLTP transfers excess phospholipids to high-density lipoprotein (HDL), allowing TRL remnants to reduce in size (1-3). As such, PLTP plays an important role in the metabolism of both TRLs and HDL, and affects their particle size and composition. Evidence regarding the association of PLTP activity with coronary artery disease (CAD) is inconsistent. (Source: Journal of Clinical Lipidology)

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death accounting for a quarter of all deaths in the UK and more than 100,000 hospital admissions1. Stroke causes 38,000 deaths and 100,000 admissions in the UK annually2. Associated healthcare costs are estimated to be £9 billion every year with an overall CVD burden of approximately £19 billion annually3. (Source: Journal of Clinical Lipidology)
