Dyslipidemia and Kidney: An Updated View
Journal Title: Journal of European Internal Medicine Professionals (JEIMP) - Year 2024, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Dyslipidemia is a common concern in various kidney-related conditions, including chronic kidney disease, nephrotic syndrome, kidney transplant patients, and those undergoing dialysis. Dyslipidemia is a significant risk factor for atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases in these patient groups. Understanding the unique challenges and factors associated with dyslipidemia in these kidney-related conditions is essential for providing effective patient care and reducing cardiovascular risk. This review explores the relationship between dyslipidemia and kidney diseases, highlighting the key recommendations and considerations for managing lipid profiles in each population.
