Background Dyslipidemia is associated with cardiovascular morbidities and mortality.
Currently, fasting lipid profile determination is used to monitor treatment response. Recently,
postprandial lipemia is of increasing interest because of its atherogenic and thrombogenic
potential and also was found to be more predictive for cardiovascular diseases. Objectives
To demonstrate postprandial lipemia among patients with cardiovascular diseases despite
low fat diet, normal fasting lipid profile and even statin regimen.
Abstract
Background
Dyslipidemia is associated with cardiovascular morbidities and mortality. Currently, fasting lipid profile determination is used to monitor treatment response. Recently, postprandial lipemia is of increasing interest because of its atherogenic and thrombogenic potential and also was found to be more predictive for cardiovascular diseases.
Objectives
To demonstrate postprandial lipemia among patients with cardiovascular diseases despite low fat diet, normal fasting lipid profile and even statin regimen.
