Traditional lipid profiles often fail to fully explain the elevated cardiovascular risk of individuals with diabetes mellitus. Advanced lipoprotein testing offers a novel means to evaluate dyslipidemia and refine risk estimation. Numerous observational studies have demonstrated a characteristic pattern of elevated levels of small, dense LDL particles, out of proportion to traditional lipid levels, in patients with both diabetes mellitus and the metabolic syndrome. Commonly used glucose and lipid-lowering agents have varied effects in patients with diabetes on both LDL and HDL subfractions. The exact role of advanced lipoprotein testing in patients with diabetes mellitus and the metabolic syndrome remains unclear but may offer improved assessment of cardiovascular risk compared with traditional lipid measurements.
传统的血脂谱常常无法充分解释糖尿病患者心血管风险升高的情况。先进的脂蛋白检测提供了一种评估血脂异常和完善风险评估的新方法。大量观察性研究表明,糖尿病和代谢综合征患者存在一种特征性模式,即小而密的低密度脂蛋白颗粒水平升高,与传统血脂水平不成比例。常用的降糖和降脂药物对糖尿病患者的低密度脂蛋白和高密度脂蛋白亚组分有不同影响。先进的脂蛋白检测在糖尿病和代谢综合征患者中的具体作用尚不清楚,但与传统血脂测量相比,可能能更好地评估心血管风险。
