  • Title: Diabetic dyslipidemia.
    Author: Chahil TJ, Ginsberg HN.
    Journal: Endocrinol Metab Clin North Am; 2006 Sep; 35(3):491-510, vii-viii. PubMed ID: 16959582.
    Abstract:
    Type 2 diabetes mellitus is associated with a markedly increased risk of cardiovascular disease. A complex dyslipidemia, which is an integral part of the underlying insulin resistance in this group, is a key to this increased risk. Increased secretion of VLDL from the liver is a central feature of dyslipidemia and is linked significantly to the low HDL and abnormal LDL that are also present. A number of physiologic and pharmacologic approaches are available and should be used aggressively to treat diabetic dyslipidemia.
