  11. Hypertriglyceridemia and Risk for CHD • TG elevation is generally associated with increased risk for CHD on univariate analysis • Is the relation causal? • Or is the TG elevation simply a marker for CHD risk through its associations with such conditions as type 2 diabetes mellitus, low HDL-C, and obesity? • The TG-CHD relation tends to weaken or disappear on multivariate analysis

  12. Hypertriglyceridemia and CHD Risk: Associated Abnormalities • Accumulation of chylomicron remnants • Accumulation of VLDL remnants • Generation of small, dense LDL-C • Association with low HDL-C • Increased coagulability • plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) • factor VIIc • activation of prothrombin to thrombin

  25. Frequent Causes of Secondary Hypertriglyceridemia • Diabetes mellitus • Nephrotic syndrome • Chronic renal failure • Estrogen replacement therapy • Excessive alcohol intake • Medications

  26. Hypertriglyceridemia TreatmentStrategies: Diet Therapy Nutrient NCEP Step 1 Total fat 30% Saturated fat 8-10% Monounsaturated fat 15% Polyunsaturated fat 10% Carbohydrate 55% Protein ~15% Cholesterol <300 mg/d Fiber 10 g/1000 kcal/d

  27. Hypertriglyceridemia Treatment Strategies: If TG <400 Focus on LDL-C • Choose LDL-C goal based on risk factors: majority of patients have two or more other risk factors • Diet, weight loss, exercise • Drug therapy: nicotinic acid, gemfibrozil, newer statins • After LDL-C goal achieved, assess TG level: goal of <200 mg/dL; additional therapies may be needed

  28. Hypertriglyceridemia Treatment Strategies:If TG >400 Focus on TG • TG >400 mg/dL • diet, weight loss, exercise • drug therapy: nicotinic acid, fibrates • if diabetic, consider insulin • After TG <400 mg/dL, assess LDL-C and determine role based on risk factors • If TG <400 mg/dL and LDL-C <130 mg/dL • diet, weight loss, exercise • drug therapy: nicotinic acid, fibrates, statins • After TG <200 mg/dL, assess LDL-C and determine goals based on risk factors
