I'm gonna do a topic presentation in dyslipidemia so give me info and intro, pathophysiology, risk factors , clinical presentation, lab investigation, classification and diagnostic criteria, treatment and management ( pharmacological and non pharmacological ). From recent guidelines for dyslipidemia AHA 2026 and ESC 2025 guidelines compare it
AHA 2026 dyslipidemia guidelines recommendations LDL targets
ESC 2025 dyslipidemia guidelines lipid management cardiovascular risk

| Pathway | Key Steps |
|---|---|
| Exogenous | Dietary fat → intestine → chylomicrons → LPL hydrolysis → remnants → liver |
| Endogenous | Liver → VLDL → IDL → LDL → LDL receptor uptake by tissues |
| Reverse | Peripheral cholesterol → HDL → liver → bile excretion |
| Category | Examples |
|---|---|
| Non-modifiable | Age, male sex, family history / FH, ethnicity (South Asians) |
| Modifiable | High saturated/trans fat diet, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, smoking, excess alcohol |
| Secondary causes | Hypothyroidism (↑ LDL), T2DM (↑ TG, ↓ HDL), nephrotic syndrome (↑ LDL), CKD (↑ TG), cholestasis (↑ TC), HIV/ART - especially PIs (↑ TG, ↑ LDL), drugs: thiazides, beta-blockers, corticosteroids |
Always rule out secondary causes before labeling primary dyslipidemia
| Sign | Condition |
|---|---|
| Tendinous / tuberous xanthomas | FH, Type IIA/III |
| Eruptive xanthomas | TG >500-1000 mg/dL (Types I, IV, V) |
| Xanthelasma | Hypercholesterolemia |
| Corneal arcus (<45 yrs) | FH |
| Lipemia retinalis | Severe hypertriglyceridemia (>2000 mg/dL) |
| Hepatosplenomegaly | Chylomicronemia |
| Parameter | Optimal | High-Risk Target |
|---|---|---|
| LDL-C | <100 mg/dL | <55-70 mg/dL (see risk category) |
| HDL-C | ≥60 mg/dL (protective); <40 (men) / <50 (women) = low | |
| TG | <150 mg/dL | <150 |
| Non-HDL-C | <130 mg/dL | <85 (very high risk) |
| Total cholesterol | <200 mg/dL |
| Test | When / Why |
|---|---|
| Lp(a) | Once in all adults (AHA 2026 Class I); risk enhancer ≥125 nmol/L |
| ApoB | Better atherogenic particle count; guides intensification in TG, DM, metabolic syndrome |
| CAC score | Reclassifies risk when treatment decision uncertain |
| hsCRP | ≥2 mg/L → consider high-intensity statin |
| TSH, glucose/HbA1c, renal function, urine protein | Rule out secondary causes |
| Type | Disorder | Elevated | LDL | TG | CHD Risk | Key Feature |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| I | Familial hyperchylomicronemia | Chylomicrons | N | ↑↑↑ | None | LPL/apo CII deficiency; pancreatitis; no drug works |
| IIA | Familial hypercholesterolemia | LDL | ↑↑ | N | ↑↑↑ | LDL receptor defect; xanthomas; early MI |
| IIB | Familial combined | LDL + VLDL | ↑ | ↑ | ↑↑ | Most common familial type; ↑ VLDL production |
| III | Dysbetalipoproteinemia | IDL | ↑ | ↑ | ↑↑ | ApoE2 mutation; palmar xanthomas |
| IV | Familial hypertriglyceridemia | VLDL | N/↑ | ↑↑ | ↑ | Common; obesity/DM |
| V | Mixed hypertriglyceridemia | VLDL + CM | N/↓ | ↑↑↑ | ↑ | Pancreatitis risk; obesity/DM |
| Intervention | Effect |
|---|---|
| Reduce saturated fat (<7% cal), eliminate trans fat | ↓ LDL 8-10% |
| Soluble fiber (oats, psyllium) | ↓ LDL 5-10% |
| Plant sterols/stanols (2 g/day) | ↓ LDL ~10% |
| Mediterranean / DASH diet | ↓ LDL + CV events |
| Exercise (150 min/week moderate aerobic) | ↑ HDL 5-10%, ↓ TG |
| Weight loss (5-10 kg) | ↓ LDL ~8%, ↓ TG ~20% |
| Smoking cessation | ↑ HDL, ↓ ox-LDL |
| Alcohol restriction | Essential for hypertriglyceridemia |
Step 1: STATIN (intensity based on risk)
↓ (goal not achieved)
Step 2: + EZETIMIBE
↓ (goal not achieved)
Step 3: + PCSK9 inhibitor (evolocumab/alirocumab)
OR inclisiran (siRNA, twice-yearly injection)
OR bempedoic acid (statin-intolerant)
| Drug | Mechanism | LDL ↓ | Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Statins (atorva, rosuva) | ↓ HMG-CoA reductase → ↑ LDL receptors | 30-65% | 1st line ALL |
| Ezetimibe | ↓ NPC1L1 intestinal absorption | +15-25% | Add-on |
| PCSK9 mAbs (evolocumab, alirocumab) | Prevent LDL receptor degradation | +50-65% | Very high risk |
| Inclisiran | siRNA ↓ PCSK9 production | +50% | Twice-yearly; alternative to PCSK9 mAb |
| Bempedoic acid | ↓ ACL (upstream of HMG-CoA) | +15-25% | Statin-intolerant |
| Bile acid sequestrants | ↑ LDL receptor via bile acid depletion | 15-30% | Limited (↑ TG) |
| Fibrates | PPAR-α → ↓ VLDL, ↑ LPL | TG ↓ 30-50% | TG ≥500 mg/dL |
| Icosapent ethyl (pure EPA) | ↓ VLDL secretion | TG ↓ 20-40% | High-risk + TG ≥150; REDUCE-IT trial |
| Evinacumab | Anti-ANGPTL3 → ↓ LDL independent of LDL-R | LDL ↓ ~50% | HoFH (NEW - ESC 2025) |
| Volanesorsen | ASO ↓ apo CIII → ↓ TG | TG ↓ 70-80% | Familial chylomicronemia (NEW - ESC 2025) |
| Lomitapide | ↓ MTP → ↓ VLDL/chylomicron assembly | LDL ↓ 40-50% | HoFH only |
| ACC/AHA 2026 | ESC/EAS 2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| Published | March 13, 2026 | August 2025 (ESC Congress, Madrid) |
| Type | Full new guideline (replaces 2018) | Focused update (of 2019) |
| Risk tool | PREVENT-ASCVD (10-year; ages 30-79) | SCORE2 (40-69) / SCORE2-OP (≥70) |
| Risk categories | Low <3%, Borderline 3-<5%, Intermediate 5-<10%, High ≥10% | Low, Moderate, High, Very High |
| Risk Tier | Target |
|---|---|
| Very High (ASCVD + high-risk features) | <55 mg/dL + ≥50% reduction |
| High (ASCVD / high-risk primary) | <70 mg/dL + ≥50% reduction |
| Intermediate | <100 mg/dL |
| Low/Borderline | Lifestyle; consider statin |
| Feature | AHA 2026 | ESC 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Lp(a) | Class I: measure in ALL adults (≥125 nmol/L = risk enhancer; ≥250 nmol/L = ≥2x risk) | Measure in FH / high-risk; >50 mg/dL = risk factor |
| Bempedoic acid | Option for statin-intolerant (Class IIa context) | Class I for statin-intolerant (stronger) |
| Evinacumab | Acknowledged for HoFH | NEW Class IIa for HoFH |
| Volanesorsen | Not specifically highlighted | NEW Class IIa for familial chylomicronemia |
| Pediatric screening | Universal at age 9-11 (new) | Selective |
| LDL formula | Martin/Hopkins preferred (Class I) | Friedewald acceptable |
| ApoB | Class IIa to guide intensification | Alternative to LDL-C |
| CAC scoring | Class I: CAC >0 → start LLT; CAC 0 → defer | Risk modifier |
| ACS | Early LLT initiation | Strong emphasis: start at index hospitalization |
| HIV patients | Treat per risk category | Statins recommended ≥40 yrs (new) |
| Dietary supplements | Not recommended | Explicitly not recommended |
AHA 2026 = broader scope (universal Lp(a), pediatric screening, lifetime risk, PREVENT tool, LDL targets reinstated)ESC 2025 = deeper refinement (SCORE2 tool, stronger push for bempedoic acid, novel agents for rare conditions, ACS timing)Both arrive at the same treatment targets - the difference is in how you stratify risk and which drugs get the strongest endorsement
