摘要

Without doubt we are entering an era of multiple risk reduction therapy to achieve reductions in cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. The purpose of this editorial is to highlight important themes in hyperlipidaemia and CVD. We review selected recent publications associated with the study of the metabolic syndrome, HDL, and LDL.The definitions, applications, and utility of the metabolic syndrome have been debated widely in the recent literature [1-3]. Metabolic syndrome, predicted to affect 25% of the US population, may also affect 30% of obese adolescents. Weiss and Caprio [4~.] identified high rates of previously unidentified impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes in obese children and adolescents. Further weight gain in these young people predicted progression to impaired glucose tolerance or type 2 diabetes. The investigators reported that the biomarkers of CVD were already present in these young people with metabolic syndrome. This finding may have major epidemiologic consequences for future health provision.Recent re-examination of the MIRACL trial (Myocardial Ischemia Reduction with Aggressive Cholesterol Lowering) demonstrates that the presence of metabolic syndrome in patients with acute coronary syndrome increased the risk of early recurrent cardiovascular events (hazard ratio of 1.49, P < 0.0001). Cholesterol lowering with atorvastatin lowered the risk of recurrent ischaemic events to the same degree in subjects with and subjects without metabolic syndrome.It is clear that the metabolic syndrome is clinically useful for the identification of individuals at high risk of cardiovascular events, and targeting of risk reduction therapy in these individuals may result in lower cardiovascular event rates.
