Abstract
Introduction: Dyslipidemia is an established risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. We aimed to review its role in the pathogenesis of lower extremity arterial disease (LEAD), as well as the effect of lipid-lowering treatment on the progression of LEAD.
Evidence acquisition: PubMed/MedLine, EMBASE and Scopus were searched between January 1990 and January 2024 for articles investigating the role of dyslipidemias and hyperlipidemias in the pathogenesis of LEAD. A separate search focused on the effects of lipid-lowering therapy on patients with LEAD.
Evidence synthesis: There is evidence that dyslipidemias play a major role in the development of LEAD. All patients with LEAD should receive intensive lipid-lowering therapy for the reduction not only of claudication symptoms and amputation rates, but also of myocardial infarction and cardiovascular event rates.
Conclusions: Vascular specialists should keep in mind the pivotal role of dyslipidemia in the pathogenesis and progression of LEAD.
导言血脂异常是心血管疾病的既定风险因素。我们旨在回顾血脂异常在下肢动脉疾病(LEAD)发病机制中的作用,以及降脂治疗对下肢动脉疾病进展的影响:在1990年1月至2024年1月期间,在PubMed/MedLine、EMBASE和Scopus上检索了研究血脂异常和高脂血症在LEAD发病机制中作用的文章。另一项检索侧重于降脂治疗对 LEAD 患者的影响:有证据表明,血脂异常在 LEAD 的发病过程中起着重要作用。所有 LEAD 患者都应接受强化降脂治疗,这样不仅能减少跛行症状和截肢率,还能降低心肌梗死和心血管事件的发生率:血管专科医生应牢记血脂异常在 LEAD 发病和进展过程中的关键作用。
