Lipoprotein and Lipid disorders for M2 discovery curriculum Flashcards
ASCVD
what does it stand for and what does it include
atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
MI+Stroke+peripheral arterial disease
What is the key determinant of CVD?
What else matters?
What are some factors for increased CVD?
LDL:HDL ratio; lifestyle is also important
DM, Smoking, HTN, obd obesity
What are three things that can guard against CVD?
exercise, eating fruits and veggies, and some alcohols
6 lifestyle related factors contributing the ASCVD and what values are disease inducing?
BMI >35 BP >135/85 FBS >100 AKA Dm Tobacco any/second hand Exercise less than 30 minutes/day Alcohol none or excess
lifestyle ways to increase LDL and Trigs
LDL: eat high fat, high cholesterol diets (thereby increasing chylomicrons)
Trigs/cause insullin resistance: eat SAD, drink sodas, sedentary lifestyle, and smoke
What’s included in the classic lipid profile? (5)
What are 2 other factors you can measure?
Total cholesterol triglycerides HDL LDL non HDL
ApoB, and LDL-Particle
Which lipoprotein amounts are calculated?
How are they calculated?
LDL and non-HDL
TC-(HDL+VLDL-C)=LDL
TC-HDL=nonHDL
called Friedewald equation
CVD pathologic limits of the following:
LDL-C
HDL
Trigs
LDL-C >100
HDL 1000 is risk for pancreatitis
What are optimal values for
TC, TG, HDL, LDL, nonHDL?
40M >50F, «100
What are normal values for TC, TG, HDL, LDL, nonHDL
40M/ >50F, <160
Two pillar determinants of lipid disorders.
What is the more realistic picture?
Genetics (recess or dom)
environment (diet, exercise, and drugs)
Genetics unmasked by lifestyle
Which subtypes of lipid disorder are mainly genetic and involves very little lifestyle changes? (2)
I and IIA
Which lipid disorder subtypes are heavily influenced by lifestyle? (4)
IIB, III, IV, V
Type I Hyperlipidemia Common Name Clinical Presentation what's in excess? What's defective? common or rare? abnormal lab value
severe Hypertriglyceridemia or Hyperchylomicronemia baby with >2,000 TG Chylomicrons are in excess defective LPL, apoC2, or apoC3 very rare TG is >2,000
IIa Common name clinical presentation what's in excess? What's defective? common or rare? abnormal lab value
Familial Hypercholesterolemia
CAD 275, LDL-C >190
