The aim of this study was to describe systematically recent studies that show the importance of cholesterol in psychopathology.
This study was a review. The following databases were searched for relevant published articles on human studies: MEDLINE, Web of Science, EBSCOhost Academic Search Complete, and Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection (papers from January 2012 to March 2016).
Eighteen recent papers were selected, and thematic dimensions showing correlations between cholesterol and behavioral and psychopathological variables were depression, suicide, personality, and aggression.
This paper demonstrates that recent research corroborates the idea that cholesterol plays an important role in governing behavior and psychopathology in humans. Deepening the studies in this field could be a promising avenue for future research, with implications for treating people with behavior or mental health problems.

本研究为一项综述。检索了以下数据库中关于人类研究的相关已发表文章：医学文献数据库（MEDLINE）、科学引文索引（Web of Science）、EBSCOhost学术搜索完整版以及心理学与行为科学合集（2012年1月至2016年3月的论文）。
选取了18篇近期论文，显示胆固醇与行为及精神病理变量之间存在相关性的主题维度为抑郁、自杀、人格和攻击性。
本文表明近期研究证实了胆固醇在调控人类行为和精神病理学中起重要作用这一观点。深化该领域的研究可能是未来研究的一个有前景的途径，对治疗有行为或心理健康问题的人具有重要意义。
