Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To explore the predictive value of the triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index combined with non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (Non-HDL-C) in coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CHD). METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively collected patients who were suspected of CHD and underwent coronary angiography in Yiwu Central Hospital and collected medical history, other serum biochemical evaluation and echocardiography from the enrolled population, Non-HDL-C and TyG indices were calculated, and their correlation with Gensini score was analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of coronary heart disease, and ROC curves were plotted to assess the predictive value of CHD in subjects with single or multiple indices. TyG index and Non-HDL-C were higher in patients with CHD than in patients without CHD (P < 0.05), and they were independent risk factors for the development of CHD after logistic regression analysis. Diabetes, Non-HDL-C, TyG index, and Gensini score were positively correlated. The areas under the ROC curves for TyG index and Non-HDL-C for the diagnosis of coronary heart disease were 0.719 (95% CI 0.675-0.763) and 0.652 (95% CI 0.605-0.700), respectively, and the area under the ROC curve plotted with the joint equation of the two was 0.724 (95% CI 0.681-0.768), which can better predict the occurrence of coronary heart disease. CONCLUSION TyG index and Non-HDL-C are independent risk factors for the occurrence of coronary heart disease, and the combination of the two can better predict the occurrence of coronary heart disease.

Arafa A, Kawachi H, Kato Y, Nosaka S, Teramoto M, Khairan P, Gao Q, Matsumoto C, Kokubo Y. The association between serum cholesterol levels and mild-to-moderate cognitive impairment in the Suita Study and evidence from other epidemiological studies. J Neurol Sci 2024; 466:123244. [PMID: 39303347 DOI: 10.1016/j.jns.2024.123244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 08/26/2024] [Accepted: 09/15/2024] [Indexed: 09/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Serum cholesterols are well-documented markers of cardiovascular diseases; however, their association with cognitive well-being is uncertain. This study investigated the association between serum cholesterol levels and mild-to-moderate cognitive impairment. METHODS Epidemiological evidence on the role of total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC), non-HDL-C, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in cognitive impairment was highlighted. Then, data from 6216 Japanese individuals, aged ≥50 years, from the Suita Study were analyzed. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores <27 and < 24 were used to define cognitive impairment. Logistic regression was used to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CIs) for cognitive impairment. RESULTS Epidemiological studies investigating the association between serum cholesterol and cognitive impairment have shown conflicting findings: elevated risk with certain lipid components in some studies and no association in others. In the Suita Study, HDL-C < 40 mg/dL was associated with cognitive impairment: ORs (95 % CIs) = 1.36 (1.08, 1.72) for MMSE <27 and 1.61 (1.00, 2.60) for MMSE <24. Non-HDL-C ≥ 200 mg/dL was also associated with cognitive impairment: ORs (95 % CIs) = 1.53 (1.02, 2.31) for MMSE <27 and 1.80 (1.16, 2.79) for MMSE <24. No such associations were detected with TC. CONCLUSION While epidemiological evidence remains inconsistent, the Suita Study showed that decreased HDL-C and increased non-HDL-C, but not increased TC, were associated with mild-to-moderate cognitive impairment. Management of serum cholesterol levels should be considered to prevent cognitive impairment.

PeerJ 2024; 12:e18224. [PMID: 39376224 PMCID: PMC11457871 DOI: 10.7717/peerj.18224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 09/12/2024] [Indexed: 10/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Cholestasis is characterized by the accumulation of bile in the liver or biliary system due to obstruction or impaired flow, necessitating lipid profiling to assess lipid metabolism abnormalities. Intrahepatic cholestasis, being the most significant type of cholestasis, further complicates the assessment of lipid abnormalities. However, the accuracy of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) measurement in intrahepatic cholestasis patients remains uncertain. Objective This study aimed to evaluate the consistency of the homogeneous assay and the Friedewald formula in detecting LDL-C levels and identify factors influencing LDL-C test results in intrahepatic patients with cholestasis. Methods Retrospective analysis of laboratory data was conducted on intrahepatic cholestatic patients. Correlations between LDL-C values obtained using the homogeneous method (LDL-C(D)) and the Friedewald formula (LDL-C(F)), as well as associations between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), LDL-C(D) and LDL-C(F), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB), were analyzed. Logistic regression analyses were employed to identify diagnostic indicators for inaccurate LDL-C measurements in intrahepatic cholestatic patients. Results Compared to patients with intrahepatic cholestasis without jaundice, the correlation between LDL-C(F) and LDL-C(D) was weaker in those with jaundice. Additionally, HDL-C exhibited a strong correlation with ApoA1 in both jaundice and non-jaundice cholestasis cases. Elevated non-HDL-C to APOB ratio (NH-C/B Ratio) levels (>4.5) were identified as a reliable predictor of inaccurate LDL-C measurements in patients with chronic intrahepatic cholestasis accompanied by jaundice. Conclusions LDL-C measurement reliability is moderately weaker in patients with intrahepatic cholestasis accompanied by jaundice. Elevated levels of the NH-C/B ratio serve as a significant predictor of inaccurate LDL-C measurements in this chronic patient population, highlighting its clinical relevance for diagnostic assessments.

Abstract
AIM We aimed to assess the association between non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis (sICAS), as well as the impact of non-HDL-C on recurrent vascular events in patients with mild ischemic stroke ( NIHSS score ≤ 5). METHODS This prospective study was based on data from patients presenting within 72 hours of stroke occurrence. We included patients admitted to 8 Chinese hospitals between September 2019 and November 2021. The associations of non-HDL-C with sICAS and recurrent vascular risk were assessed using multivariate regression models and a restricted cubic spline analysis. RESULTS Among the 2,544 patients analyzed at 12 months, 652 (25.6%) were diagnosed with sICAS. Elevated non-HDL-C was linked to a higher incidence of sICAS, and the adjusted odd ratios for quintile variables and continuous variables were 1.36 ([95% CI, 1.01-1.81]) and 1.14 ([95% CI, 1.04-1.24). In comparison to those in the first quintile, the adjusted hazard ratio of the fifth quintile of non-HDL-C was 1.19 ([95% CI 0.78-1.80]) for recurrent ischemic stroke and was 0.39 ([95% CI, 0.17-0.91]) for intracranialhemorrhage. CONCLUSIONS The non-HDL-C level may be a useful predictor of sICAS. Higher non-HDL-C levels may be associated with a lower risk of intracranial hemorrhage in mild, noncardiogenic stroke, but not a higher risk of recurrent ischemic stroke.

Discordance among apoB, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides: implications for cardiovascular prevention. Eur Heart J 2024; 45:2410-2418. [PMID: 38700053 PMCID: PMC11242442 DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehae258] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Despite growing evidence that apolipoprotein B (apoB) is the most accurate marker of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk, its adoption in clinical practice has been low. This investigation sought to determine whether low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and triglycerides are sufficient for routine cardiovascular care. METHODS A sample of 293 876 UK Biobank adults (age: 40-73 years, 42% men), free of cardiovascular disease, with a median follow-up for new-onset ASCVD of 11 years was included. Distribution of apoB at pre-specified levels of LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and triglycerides was examined graphically, and 10-year ASCVD event rates were compared for high vs. low apoB. Residuals of apoB were constructed after regressing apoB on LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and log-transformed triglycerides and used as predictors in a proportional hazards regression model for new-onset ASCVD adjusted for standard risk factors, including HDL-C. RESULTS ApoB was highly correlated with LDL-C and non-HDL-C (Pearson's r = .96, P < .001 for both) but less so with log triglycerides (r = .42, P < .001). However, apoB ranges necessary to capture 95% of all observations at pre-specified levels of LDL-C, non-HDL-C, or triglycerides were wide, spanning 85.8-108.8 md/dL when LDL-C 130 mg/dL, 88.3-112.4 mg/dL when non-HDL-C 160 mg/dL, and 67.8-147.4 md/dL when triglycerides 115 mg/dL. At these levels (±10 mg/dL), 10-year ASCVD rates for apoB above mean + 1 SD vs. below mean - 1 SD were 7.3 vs. 4.0 for LDL-C, 6.4 vs. 4.6 for non-HDL-C, and 7.0 vs. 4.6 for triglycerides (all P < .001). With 19 982 new-onset ASCVD events on follow-up, in the adjusted model, residual apoB remained statistically significant after accounting for LDL-C and HDL-C (hazard ratio 1.06, 95% confidence interval 1.0-1.07), after accounting for non-HDL-C and HDL-C (hazard ratio 1.04, 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.06), and after accounting for triglycerides and HDL-C (hazard ratio 1.13, 95% confidence interval 1.12-1.15). None of the residuals of LDL-C, non-HDL-C, or of log triglycerides remained significant when apoB was included in the model. CONCLUSIONS High variability of apoB at individual levels of LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and triglycerides coupled with meaningful differences in 10-year ASCVD rates and significant residual information contained in apoB for prediction of new-onset ASCVD events demonstrate that LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and triglycerides are not adequate proxies for apoB in clinical care.

U-shaped relationship between non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and cognitive impairment in Chinese middle-aged and elderly: a cross-sectional study. BMC Public Health 2024; 24:1624. [PMID: 38890653 PMCID: PMC11186169 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-19164-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between blood lipids and cognitive function has long been a subject of interest, and the association between serum non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) levels and cognitive impairment remains contentious. METHODS We utilized data from the 2011 CHARLS national baseline survey, which after screening, included a final sample of 10,982 participants. Cognitive function was assessed using tests of episodic memory and cognitive intactness. We used multiple logistic regression models to estimate the relationship between non-HDL-C and cognitive impairment. Subsequently, utilizing regression analysis results from fully adjusted models, we explored the nonlinear relationship between non-HDL-C as well as cognitive impairment using smooth curve fitting and sought potential inflection points through saturation threshold effect analysis. RESULTS The results showed that each unit increase in non-HDL-C levels was associated with a 5.5% reduction in the odds of cognitive impairment (OR = 0.945, 95% CI: 0.897-0.996; p < 0.05). When non-HDL-C was used as a categorical variable, the results showed that or each unit increase in non-HDL-C levels, the odds of cognitive impairment were reduced by 14.2%, 20.9%, and 24% in the Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups, respectively, compared with Q1. In addition, in the fully adjusted model, analysis of the potential nonlinear relationship by smoothed curve fitting and saturation threshold effects revealed a U-shaped relationship between non-HDL-C and the risk of cognitive impairment, with an inflection point of 4.83. Before the inflection point, each unit increase in non-HDL-C levels was associated with a 12.3% decrease in the odds of cognitive impairment. After the tipping point, each unit increase in non-HDL-C levels was associated with an 18.8% increase in the odds of cognitive impairment (All p < 0.05). CONCLUSION There exists a U-shaped relationship between non-HDL-C and the risk of cognitive impairment in Chinese middle-aged and elderly individuals, with statistical significance on both sides of the turning points. This suggests that both lower and higher levels of serum non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol increase the risk of cognitive impairment in middle-aged and elderly individuals.

Abstract
PURPOSE Dairy foods are often a major contributor to dietary saturated fatty acids (SFA) intake. However, different SFA-rich foods may not have the same effects on cardiovascular risk factors. We compared full-fat yogurt with low-fat yogurt and butter for their effects on cardiometabolic risk factors in healthy individuals. METHODS Randomized, two-period crossover trial conducted from October 2022 to April 2023 among 30 healthy men and women (15 to receive full-fat yogurt first, and 15 to receive low-fat yogurt and butter first). Participants consumed a diet with 1.5-2 servings of full-fat (4%) yogurt or low-fat (< 1.5) yogurt and 10-15 g of butter per day for 4 weeks, with 4 weeks wash-out when they consumed 1.5-2 servings of low-fat milk. At baseline, and the end of each 4 weeks, fasting blood samples were drawn and plasma lipids, glycemic and inflammatory markers as well as expression of some genes in the blood buffy coats fraction were determined. RESULTS All 30 participants completed the two periods of the study. Apolipoprotein B was higher for the low-fat yogurt and butter [changes from baseline, + 10.06 (95%CI 4.64 to 15.47)] compared with the full-fat yogurt [-4.27 (95%CI, -11.78 to 3.23)] and the difference between two treatment periods was statistically significant (p = 0.004). Non-high-density lipoprotein increased for the low-fat yogurt and butter [change, + 5.06 (95%CI (-1.56 to 11.69) compared with the full-fat yogurt [change, - 4.90 (95%CI, -11.61 to 1.81), with no significant difference between two periods (p = 0.056). There were no between-period differences in other plasma lipid, insulin, and inflammatory biomarkers or leukocyte gene expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 and CD36. CONCLUSION This study suggests that short-term intake of SFAs from full-fat yogurt compared to intake from butter and low-fat yogurt has fewer adverse effects on plasma lipid profile.

[PMID: 38545184 PMCID: PMC10965529 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e28155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2023] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/13/2024] [Indexed: 01/05/2025] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In general, the identification of cholesterol-depleted lipid particles can be inferred from non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) concentration to apolipoprotein B (apoB) concentration ratio, which serves as a reliable indicator for assessing the risk of cardiovascular disease. However, the ability of non-HDL-C/apoB ratio to predict the risk of long-term mortality among the general population remains uncertain. The aim of this study is to explore the association of non-HDL-C/apoB ratio with long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in adults of the United States. METHODS This retrospective cohort study was a further analysis of existing information from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). In the ultimate analysis, 12,697 participants from 2005 to 2014 were included. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curves and the log-rank test were applied to visualize survival differences between groups. Multivariate Cox regression and restricted cubic spline (RCS) models were applied to evaluate the association of non-HDL-C/apoB ratio with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Subgroup analysis was conducted for the variables of age, sex, presence of coronary artery disease, diabetes and hypertriglyceridemia and usage of lipid-lowering drugs. RESULTS The average age of the cohort was 46.8 ± 18.6 years, with 6215 (48.9%) participants being male. During a median follow-up lasting 68.0 months, 891 (7.0%) deaths were documented and 156 (1.2%) patients died of cardiovascular disease. Individuals who experienced all-cause and cardiovascular deaths had a lower non-HDL-C/apoB ratio compared with those without events (1.45 ± 0.16 vs. 1.50 ± 0.17 and 1.43 ± 0.17 vs. 1.50 ± 0.17, both P values < 0.001). The results of adjusted Cox regression models revealed that non-HDL-C/apoB ratio exhibited independent significance as a risk factor for both long-term all-cause mortality [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.51, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.33-0.80] and cardiovascular mortality (HR = 0.33, 95% CI: 0.12-0.90). Additionally, a significant sex interaction was discovered (P for interaction <0.05), indicating a robust association between non-HDL-C/apoB ratio and long-term mortality among females. The RCS curve showed that non-HDL-C/apoB ratio had a negative linear association with long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality (P for non-linearity was 0.098 and 0.314). CONCLUSIONS The non-HDL-C/apoB ratio may serve as a potential biomarker for predicting long-term mortality among the general population, independent of traditional risk factors.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia refers to unhealthy changes in blood lipid composition and is a risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). Usually, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) is the primary goal for dyslipidemia management. However, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) has gained attention as an alternative, reliable goal. It encompasses all plasma lipoproteins like LDL, triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL), TRL-remnants, and lipoprotein a [Lp(a)] except high-density lipoproteins (HDL). In addition to LDL-C, several other constituents of non-HDL-C have been reported to be atherogenic, aiding the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis. They are acknowledged as contributors to residual ASCVD risk that exists in patients on statin therapy with controlled LDL-C levels. Therefore, non-HDL-C is now considered an independent risk factor or predictor for CVD. The popularity of non-HDL-C is attributed to its ease of estimation and non-dependency on fasting status. It is also better at predicting ASCVD risk in patients on statin therapy, and/or in those with obesity, diabetes, and metabolic disorders. In addition, large follow-up studies have reported that individuals with higher baseline non-HDL-C at a younger age (<45 years) were more prone to adverse CVD events at an older age, suggesting a predictive ability of non-HDL-C over the long term. Consequently, non-HDL-C is recommended as a secondary goal for dyslipidemia management by most international guidelines. Intriguingly, geographical patterns in recent epidemiological studies showed remarkably high non-HDL-C attributable mortality in high-risk countries. This review highlights the independent role of non-HDL-C in ASCVD pathogenesis and prognosis. In addition, the need for a country-specific approach to dyslipidemia management at the community/population level is discussed. Overall, non-HDL-C can become a co-primary or primary goal in dyslipidemia management.

Abstract
The traditional approach to the management of coronary artery disease (CAD) focuses mainly on low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) which is often considered a crucial risk factor for the progression of atherosclerosis. Despite its extensive use in predicting CAD risk, it has become a sub-optimal marker owing to several limitations. Recently, non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and apolipoprotein-B (Apo-B) have been substantiated to be more reliable predictors of CAD risk. On the basis of available evidence, it is fair to say that non-HDL-C is a more realistic primary target of therapy and can be used for initial screening. In the current scenario, India being a developing country, the population would not be burdened with additional cost of Apo-B estimation as non-HDL-C can be estimated in the non-fasting state which makes it both patient and clinician friendly. Considering this fact, the aim of the present review article is to highlight the reliability and efficacy of non-HDL-Cholesterol and hence make recommendations to incorporate non-HDL-C in routine lipid panel for better assessment of CAD.

Abstract
SLE is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of asymptomatic carotid atherosclerosis to analyze its relationship with dyslipidemia and related genetic factors in a population of patients with SLE. Seventy-one SLE female patients were recruited. Carotid ultrasound, laboratory profiles, and genetic analysis of the ZPR1, APOA5, and GCKR genes were performed. SLE patients were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of carotid plaques. Patients with carotid plaque had higher plasma TG (1.5 vs. 0.9 mmol/L, p = 0.001), Non-HDL-C (3.5 vs. 3.1 mmol/L, p = 0.025), and apoB concentrations (1.0 vs. 0.9 g/L, p = 0.010) and a higher prevalence of hypertension (80 vs. 37.5%, p = 0.003) than patients without carotid plaque. The GCKR C-allele was present in 83.3% and 16.7% (p = 0.047) of patients with and without carotid plaque, respectively. The GCKR CC genotype (OR = 0.026; 95% CI: 0.001 to 0.473, p = 0.014), an increase of 1 mmol/L in TG concentrations (OR = 12.550; 95% CI: 1.703 to 92.475, p = 0.013) and to be hypertensive (OR = 9.691; 95% CI: 1.703 to 84.874, p = 0.040) were independently associated with carotid atherosclerosis. In summary, plasma TG concentrations, CGKR CC homozygosity, and hypertension are independent predictors of carotid atherosclerosis in women with SLE.

[PMID: 33744037 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2020.12.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2020] [Revised: 12/24/2020] [Accepted: 12/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Higher fish consumption may lead to the suppression of atherogenesis. The present study was aimed at investigating the gender differences in association with the frequency of fish intake, lifestyle behaviors and serum non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) levels. METHODS AND RESULTS This cross-sectional study was conducted in a cohort of 4320 (2479 males, 1570 females) healthy Japanese subjects over 50 years of age registered at the Health Planning Center of Nihon University Hospital between April 2018 and March 2019. The average weekly frequency of fish intake was 2.58 ± 1.39 days in males and 2.42 ± 1.36 days in females. In males, the serum non-HDL-C level decreased significantly as the weekly frequency of fish intake (0-1 days, 2-3 days, 4-5 days, or 6-7 days) increased (p < 0.0001). Multiple stepwise regression analysis identified the weekly frequency of fish intake (β = -0.056, p = 0.004) and habitual aerobic exercise (β = -0.063, p = 0.001) as independent determinants of the serum non-HDL-C level. On the other hand, no such associations were observed in females. However, the proportion of subjects engaging in habitual aerobic exercise increased as the frequency of fish intake increased even among females. CONCLUSIONS A higher frequency of fish intake may be associated with healthier lifestyle behaviors and lower non-HDL-C levels in males, but not in females. There appear to be gender differences in the relationships between the intake of fish and lifestyle behaviors on lipid metabolism.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Apolipoprotein B containing lipoproteins are atherogenic. There is evidence that with low plasma low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels residual vascular risk might be caused by triglyceride rich lipoproteins such as very-low density lipoproteins (VLDL), chylomicrons and their remnants. We investigated the relationship between VLDL-cholesterol (VLDL-C) and recurrent major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), major adverse limb events (MALE) and all-cause mortality in a cohort of patients with cardiovascular disease. METHODS Prospective cohort study in 8057 patients with cardiovascular disease from the UCC-SMART study. The relation between calculated VLDL-C levels and the occurrence of MACE, MALE and all-cause mortality was analyzed with Cox regression models. RESULTS Patients mean age was 60 ± 10 years, 74% were male, 4894 (61%) had coronary artery disease, 2445 (30%) stroke, 1425 (18%) peripheral arterial disease and 684 (8%) patients had an abdominal aorta aneurysm at baseline. A total of 1535 MACE, 571 MALE and 1792 deaths were observed during a median follow up of 8.2 years (interquartile range 4.512.2). VLDL-C was not associated with risk of MACE or all-cause mortality. In the highest quartile of VLDL-C the risk was higher for major adverse limb events (MALE) (HR 1.49; 95%CI 1.16-1.93) compared to the lowest quartile, after adjustment for confounders including LDL-C and lipid lowering medication. CONCLUSION In patients with clinically manifest cardiovascular disease plasma VLDL-C confers an increased risk for MALE, but not for MACE and all-cause mortality, independent of established risk factors including LDL-C and lipid-lowering medication.

Abstract
Objective The present study aimed to establish a better marker for the assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods One hundred patients of CAD (aged 20–60 years) of both sex and patients of hypertension with symptoms of CAD were selected for the study.50 age and sex matched healthy controls were chosen for the present study. Serum total cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL-C were estimated in Simens Dimensions RxL. LDL-C, VLDL-C were calculated by Friedwald Formula while non-HDL-C was calculated by subtracting HDL-C level from total cholesterol level. The comparison of non-HDL-C and friedwald calculated LDL-C was made in terms of independent‘t’ test, serum TG levels (TG ≤ 200 mg/dl and TG > 200 mg/dl) and area under receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve. Results & conclusion The non-HDL-C levels (mean ± S.D) were higher in both test and control groups to that of the levels of friedwald calculated LDL-C. The area under receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve was significantly higher for non-HDL-C than for friedwald calculated LDL-C. The predictive value of non-HDL-C and friedwald calculated LDL-C were also compared in group A (serum TG ≤ 200 mg/dl) and group B (serum TG > 200 mg/dl). Non-HDL-C levels showed a significant difference in both the groups while the results were non-significant to that of friedwald calculated LDL. Thus, non-HDL-C is much specific and sensitive parameter for assessment of CAD risk. Moreover, non-HDL-C levels can also be done in non-fasting state with accuracy, thereby, it is patient friendly parameter. Therefore, the authors strongly suggest the incorporation of non-HDL-C in routine lipid profile panel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mixed dyslipidemia [elevated non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and triglycerides (TGs), and decreased HDL-C] is common in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Non-HDL-C and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) are the preferred therapeutic targets for mixed dyslipidemia. Alirocumab is a monoclonal antibody to proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) that effectively reduces low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), non-HDL-C, ApoB, and lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]), and is well-tolerated in individuals with T2DM. METHODS The previously reported open-label ODYSSEY DM-DYSLIPIDEMIA trial data demonstrated the effects of alirocumab on individuals with non-HDL-C ≥ 100 mg/dL and TGs ≥ 150 and < 500 mg/dL receiving stable maximally tolerated statin (n = 413). This post hoc subgroup analysis of the primary trial investigated the effects of alirocumab [75 mg every 2 weeks (Q2W) with possible increase to 150 mg Q2W at Week 12] versus usual care [ezetimibe, fenofibrate, or no additional lipid-lowering therapy (LLT)] on non-HDL-C and other lipids in individuals with T2DM and baseline TGs ≥ 200 mg/dL and HDL-C < 40 mg/dL (men) or < 50 mg/dL (women). RESULTS Alirocumab significantly reduced non-HDL-C [LS mean difference (standard error (SE)), - 35.0% (3.9)], ApoB [LS mean difference (SE), - 34.7% (3.6)], LDL-C [LS mean difference (SE), - 47.3% (5.2)], LDL particle number [LS mean difference (SE), - 40.8% (4.1)], and Lp(a) [LS mean difference (SE), - 29.9% (5.4)] versus usual care from baseline to Week 24 (all P < 0.0001). Results were similar for alirocumab versus usual care. TG reductions were similar between alirocumab and usual care (no significant difference), but greater with fenofibrate versus alirocumab (P = 0.3371). Overall, alirocumab significantly increased HDL-C versus usual care [LS mean difference (SE), 7.9% (3.6); P < 0.05], although differences with alirocumab versus ezetimibe or fenofibrate were non-significant. Most individuals receiving alirocumab achieved ApoB < 80 mg/dL (67.9%) and non-HDL-C < 100 mg/dL (60.9%). Adverse event frequency was similar between alirocumab (67.2%) and usual care (70.7%). Additionally, no clinically relevant effect of alirocumab on change in glycemic parameters or use of antihyperglycemic agents was observed. CONCLUSIONS Alirocumab is an effective therapeutic option for individuals with T2DM, TGs ≥ 200 mg/dL, and HDL-C < 40 mg/dL (men) or < 50 mg/dL (women). Atherogenic lipid (ApoB and non-HDL) reductions were greater with alirocumab than ezetimibe, fenofibrate, or no LLT. Consistent with previous studies, alirocumab was generally well tolerated.

Abstract
Aim: A positive association between non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and coronary heart disease (CHD) has been established; however, associations between non-HDL-C and stroke subtypes have not been determined. Methods: We conducted a prospective study of 30,554 individuals aged 40–69 yrs with no history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Japan. Sex-specific hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the incidence of stroke subtypes and CHD were estimated according to quintiles of non-HDL-C, using Cox proportional hazard models adjusted for other established risk factors. Results: We identified 1,705 stroke and 296 CHD events over a median 15 yrs of follow-up. The fractional polynomials analysis revealed a U-shaped association between non-HDL-C and stroke risk in men. When analyzed for stroke subtypes, the data revealed an inverse relationship between non-HDL-C and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), primarily with lobar ICH, and a positive association between non-HDL-C and large-artery occlusive infarction in men [adjusted HR 0.55 (95% CI, 0.35–0.87) and 2.05 (95% CI, 1.07–3.93) for the highest and lowest quintile of non-HDL-C, respectively]. The lowest risk of ICH in women was observed in the fourth quintile, and the lowest risk of embolic infarction was observed in the third quintile. In contrast, non-HDL-C was positively associated with CHD in both sexes. Conclusions: In Japanese men, lower non-HDL-C levels were associated with a decreased risk of large-artery occlusive infarction and an increased risk of ICH, particularly lobar ICH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Guidelines recommended non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) as a co-primary target, and set non-HDL-C goals as 30 mg/dl higher than low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goals. However, the value is largely uncertain in Chinese patients. METHODS We assigned non-HDL-C values at the same percentiles correspondent to LDL-C goals for patients from the Improving Care for Cardiovascular Disease in China-Acute Coronary Syndrome (CCC-ACS) Project. We calculated the differences between non-HDL-C and LDL-C and proposed appropriate adding values according to LDL-C and TG concentrations. RESULTS Among 73,495 patients, 17.7% used lipid-lowering agents before admission. Of these, 27.2% achieved LDL-C <70 mg/dl while 39.4% achieved non-HDL-C <100 mg/dl. The mean difference between non-HDL-C and LDL-C was 23.2 mg/dl, which could be affected by LDL-C and TG concentrations. Importantly, of patients with LDL-C concentrations ≤100 mg/dl, the mean differences were 19.1 mg/dl in patients with TG ≤150 mg/dl and 24.6 mg/dl in patients with TG >150 mg/dl. CONCLUSIONS There are significant differences between LDL-C and non-HDL-C in Chinese ACS patients. For secondary prevention, on average, the adding values should be 20 mg/dl for patients with TG ≤150 mg/dl and 25 mg/dl for patients with TG >150 mg/dl when LDL-C goals of 70 mg/dl is achieved.

Abstract
Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) has been recommended as the primary treatment target on lipid management in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients for past several decades. However, even by aggressive LDL-C lowering treatment, patients still present a significant residual risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) contained all the atherogenic lipoproteins, such as chylomicron, very-low density lipoprotein (VLDL), LDL, intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL). Many prospective observation studies have found that non-HDL-C was better than LDL-C in predicting risks of MACE. Since non-HDL-C appears to be superior for risk prediction beyond LDL-C, current guidelines have emphasize the importance of non-HDL-C for guiding cardiovascular prevention strategies and have flagged non-HDL-C as a co-primary therapeutic target. The goals of non-HDL-C were recommended as 30 mg/dl higher than the corresponding LDL-C goals, but the value seemed inappropriate. This review provide evidence for changing lipid management strategy to focus on non-HDL-C and appropriate values for adding to LDL-C goals would be proposed.

Abstract
Introduction The apolipoprotein A1 (apoA1) remnant ratio has been identified as an independent cardiovascular (CV) risk factor. Higher apoA1 remnant ratios may predict lower CV risk in some patients. This analysis aimed to evaluate the effects of evolocumab on the change from baseline in the apoA1 remnant ratio compared with placebo. Methods This pooled post hoc analysis included 2464 patients with mixed dyslipidemia treated with evolocumab 140 mg every 2 weeks (Q2W) or 420 mg once monthly (QM) in three phase 3 evolocumab trials. The apoA1 remnant ratio was calculated by dividing apoA1 by the difference between non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). ApoA1 remnant ratio strata were generated using previously published tertile (< 4.7, 4.7–6.8, and > 6.8) and partitioning categories (< 3.6, 3.6–6.0, and > 6.0). Results The baseline apoA1 remnant ratio in evolocumab and placebo treatment arms was 7.1 and 7.3, respectively. At week 12, evolocumab 140 mg Q2W and 420 mg QM increased the apoA1 remnant ratio by 25.0% and 33.6%, respectively, versus placebo (p < 0.0001 for both groups). When patients were categorized by week 12 apoA1 remnant ratio thresholds (< 3.6 vs. > 3.6, and < 4.7 vs. > 4.7), those with higher week 12 apoA1 remnant ratios were significantly more likely to have also achieved a target non-HDL-C level of < 100 mg/dl. In the subset of women > 50 years of age, the proportion of patients at apoA1 remnant ratio thresholds < 3.6, 3.6–6.0, and > 6.0 at baseline shifted toward or remained at higher thresholds at week 12. Conclusions This post hoc analysis suggests that evolocumab increases the apoA1 remnant ratio. Funding Amgen Inc. Plain Language Summary Plain language summary available for this article.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in people with type 2 diabetes. The aim of our study is to estimate the relative multivariate risk of non-HDL-C in the occurrence of CVD in a population in the extreme western Algeria with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS Our study was carried out in western Algeria on a population of 1111 subjects, 371 cardiopaths with T2DM and 740 controls. The biochemical balance was established using standard enzymatic procedures (SFBC or IFCC recommendations) on the Beckman CX7® PLC (Beckman-Coulter®, NY, USA). Information on the pathologies was collected by means of a questionnaire. RESULTS The logistic model retained the two levels of non-HDL-C: 130 mg/dl < non-HDL-C≤160 mg/dl (OR = 0.11; 95% CI = 0.03-0,47, P = 0.003) and 160 mg/dl < non-HDL-C≤190 mg/dl (OR = 5.02; 95% CI = 1.1-22.87, P = 0.037) and smoking (OR = 19.27; 95% CI = 3.39-109.63, P = 0.001), inbreeding (OR = 3.65; 95% CI = 1.12-11,85, P = 0.031) and the two age groups 60-70 years (OR = 2.36; 95% CI = 1.32-4.2, P<<0.01) and 70 years and over (OR = 2.26; 95% CI = 1.19-4.29, P<<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Non-HDL-C is a powerful risk factor for the occurrence of cardiovascular disease in type 2 diabetics in the extreme western Algeria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS A novel method to estimate low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) has been proposed by Martin et al. This may permit a more accurate estimation of cardiovascular risk, however, external validation is needed. Here, the performance of LDL-C using this new method (LDL-N) is compared with LDL-C estimated with Friedewald equation (LDL-F) in familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL), a common primary dyslipidemia in which apolipoprotein B containing particle composition is abnormal and interferes with LDL-C estimation. METHODS A total of 410 FCHL subjects were included. LDL-C was estimated with both the Friedewald equation (LDL-F) and the novel formula (LDL-N). Apolipoprotein B levels and non- HDL-C were recorded. The correlation and concordance between LDL-F and LDL-N and both Apolipoprotein B and non-HDL-C levels were calculated. Analysis stratifying for triglyceride tertiles and FCHL lipid phenotypes was also carried out. RESULTS The correlations between LDL-N and Apo B and non-HDL-C were ρ = 0.777 (95%CI 0.718-0.825) and ρ = 0.735 (95%CI 0.648-0.816), respectively. The corresponding correlations for LDL-F were ρ = 0.551(95%CI 0.454-0.637) and ρ = 0.394 (95%CI 0.253-0.537), respectively. In mixed dyslipidemia or isolated hypertriglyceridemia, these correlations were significantly better using LDL-N. With respect to concordance, LDL-N performed significantly better than LDL-F when considering apoB <90 mg/dL (κLDL-N = 0.495 vs. κLDL-F = 0.165) and non-HDL-C <130 (κLDL-N = 0.724 vs. κLDL-F = 0.253). CONCLUSIONS In FCHL, LDL-C estimation using Martin's formula showed greater correlation and concordance with non-HDL-C and Apo B compared with the Friedewald equation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of dyslipidemia, particularly hypercholesterolemia, has been reported to increase after pregnancy and menopause in Korea. This suggests the importance of the management of dyslipidemia in women for preventing cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the association of breastfeeding with 5 subtypes of dyslipidemia in Korean women aged over 20 years, by using the nationally representative Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2010-2014. METHODS Ordinary least square regression and ordered logistic regression analyses were used to determine the association between breastfeeding duration and dyslipidemia. RESULTS The likelihood of having low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) disorder decreased by 16% in the group that breastfed for more than 24 months (odds ratio, 0.84; 95% confidence interval, 0.75-0.95) compared with the group that did not breastfeed. The likelihood of having non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) disorder was significantly reduced by 25% when the breastfeeding duration was more than 24 months (odds ratio, 0.75; 95% confidence interval, 0.64-0.87). The tendency toward developing disorders of total cholesterol (TC), LDL-C, and non-HDL-C decreased as the duration of breastfeeding increased, particularly among women aged 30-39 years. CONCLUSION Breastfeeding duration was negatively correlated with dyslipidemia in terms of TC, LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and triglycerides. Long-term breastfeeding was associated with the prevalence of dyslipidemia-TC, LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and TG disorders, in particular.

Abstract
AIMS Routinely fasting is not necessary for measuring the lipid profile according to the latest European consensus. However, LDL-C tends to be lower in the non-fasting state with risk of misclassification. The extent of misclassification in secondary cardiovascular prevention with a non-fasting lipid profile was investigated. METHODS AND RESULTS 329 patients on lipid lowering therapy for secondary cardiovascular prevention measured a fasting and non-fasting lipid profile. Cut-off values for LDL-C, non-HDL-C and apolipoprotein B were set at <1.8mmol/l, <2.6mmol/l and <0.8g/l, respectively. Study outcomes were net misclassification with non-fasting LDL-C (calculated using the Friedewald formula), direct LDL-C, non-HDL-C and apolipoprotein B. Net misclassification <10% was considered clinically irrelevant. Mean age was 68.3±8.5years and the majority were men (79%). Non-fasting measurements resulted in lower LDL-C (-0.2±0.4mmol/l, P<0.001), direct LDL-C (-0.1±0.2mmol/l, P=0.001), non-HDL-C (-0.1±0.4mmol/l, P=0.004) and apolipoprotein B (-0.02±0.10g/l, P=0.004). 36.0% of the patients reached a fasting LDL-C target of <1.8mmol/l with a significant net misclassification of 10.7% (95% CI 6.4-15.0%) in the non-fasting state. In the non-fasting state net misclassification with direct LDL-C was 5.7% (95% CI 2.1-9.2%), 4.0% (95% CI 1.0-7.4%) with non-HDL-C and 4.1% (95% CI 1.1-9.1%) with apolipoprotein B. CONCLUSION Use of non-fasting LDL-C as treatment target in secondary cardiovascular prevention resulted in significant misclassification with subsequent risk of undertreatment, whereas non-fasting direct LDL-C, non-HDL-C and apolipoprotein B are reliable parameters.
