This commentary explores the role of PCSK9 as a target for drug development, underscoring that individuals with PCSK9 loss-of-function mutations experience significantly lowered LDL cholesterol levels and reduced coronary events, suggesting that full inactivation of PCSK9 is effective and safe.

In this study examining male patients with androgenetic alopecia, 63.1% were found to have dyslipidemia, with more severe hair loss significantly associated with higher lipid abnormalities, suggesting a link to cardiovascular risk factors.

In this study, dyslipidemia was found to be prevalent among young adult women with polycystic ovary syndrome in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, particularly characterized by increased triglycerides and decreased HDL-c levels.

This study found that Iraqi male bodybuilders abusing anabolic androgenic steroids experienced significant changes in sex hormones, liver and kidney function, and lipid profiles compared to non-AAS-using controls.

This study found that psoriasis, acne, and androgenetic alopecia are associated with an atherogenic lipid profile, suggesting an increased risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease, especially among psoriasis patients.

This study found that patients with early-onset androgenetic alopecia had significantly higher levels of fasting blood sugar, triglycerides, and cholesterol, suggesting an increased risk of developing coronary artery disease.

This study found a significant correlation between metabolic syndrome components, particularly waist circumference and hypertension, and female pattern hair loss.

This study found that patients with skin tags had a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome, prompting recommendations for screening underlying conditions like diabetes and hypertension.

In this study, non-obese females with early-onset androgenetic alopecia showed higher total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and atherogenic index, and lower HDL cholesterol compared to controls, suggesting an association with adverse cardiovascular risk factors.

This study introduced Cadd4, a peptide-based degrader developed using computer-aided drug design, which effectively reduced PCSK9 levels and increased LDL receptor expression, resulting in decreased plasma cholesterol and LDL-C levels in hypercholesterolemic mice, without liver toxicity.

In this study, the authors reported preliminary evidence that programs combining nutrition and exercise interventions can significantly reduce BMI and LDL levels, suggesting these elements are important for lifestyle modification.

This study observed that patients with severe alopecia areata treated with baricitinib experienced increases in total cholesterol, LDL-C, and HDL-C, consistent with a JAK inhibitor class effect, but the mean increase was modest and lipid-lowering medication initiation was infrequent.

This study reported that oral isotretinoin can be an effective and safe treatment for acne vulgaris when used at the appropriate dosage, offering a low-complication option.

This study found that patients with tropical chronic pancreatitis exhibited significantly reduced plasma amino acid levels and antioxidant capacity, with folate deficiency identified as a key factor in hyperhomocysteinemia.

This document extends previous recommendations by the National Lipid Association for managing dyslipidemia, focusing on lifestyle therapies, special patient groups, and strategies to enhance adherence and patient outcomes.

This review summarizes various effects of bergamot components on multiple health conditions in humans and animals but reports limitations in their use for stress and anxiety relief in aromatherapy.

This study found that serum metabolic profiles differ significantly between polycystic ovary syndrome patients and healthy controls, highlighting potential metabolic markers for diagnosing and prognosing PCOS.

This study found that the ABCG2 (rs2231142) polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of hyperuricemia and hypercholesterolemia in young Mexican males.

This study found that the ACE gene DD genotype and D allele are linked to an increased risk of hypertensive IHD complications, with dyslipidemia also identified as a significant risk factor for ischemic heart disease.

This study found that orlistat significantly reduced weight and total testosterone levels in Iranian women with polycystic ovary syndrome after 12 weeks of treatment.

This review summarizes evidence that apple and apple products may offer protective effects against various health issues, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, mild cognitive impairment, and skin conditions, due to their phytochemical content and mechanisms like anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions.

This study found that curcumin lowered fasting blood sugar levels and improved menstruation characteristics in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, but it did not affect other metabolic, hormonal, or hirsutism indices.

This study found that the ABCG2 (Q191K) polymorphism increases the risk of hyperuricemia and hypercholesterolemia specifically in young Mexican males.

This study reviews classical Ayurvedic texts and modern research on Amalaki, finding significant benefits for lipid profiles, blood glucose, and inflammation in clinical trials, while also suggesting potential benefits for liver, hair, skin, eyes, cognition, and respiratory health based on preclinical data and traditional claims.

This research highlights that Amalaki demonstrates cardiometabolic and hepatic benefits in human trials, while narrative synthesis of preclinical studies suggests promise in hair, skin, ocular, cognitive, and respiratory health.

In this study, baricitinib treatment for severe alopecia areata was well tolerated, with minor metabolic changes and PLR emerging as a sensitive marker of treatment response.

This study found that higher levels of lead and molybdenum in hair were associated with an increased risk of dyslipidemia, while there was a significant interaction showing opposing effects of lead and cadmium on dyslipidemia risk among adults in China.

This study found no significant differences in fat distribution between Thai women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome, though PCOS women with abnormal glucose tolerance showed higher arm fat.

This review reports that sex-related differences in pharmacological response have been observed in SARS-CoV-2 infection, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus, with implications for treatment strategies; for example, men may respond better to genomic vaccines for SARS-CoV-2, while women may benefit more from certain antiviral medications.
