Previous research, using odds ratios from ICD codes, indicates links between elevated triglycerides and low high-density lipoprotein levels with HS. However, these findings may not fully represent real-life situations, as no comprehensive analysis using actual lipid measurements has been performed.</p><h3>Objectives</h3><p>To examine the relationship between lipid profile values—total cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL)—and HS.</p><h3>Methods</h3><p>A comprehensive search of PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase was conducted to identify studies reporting lipid profiles in HS patients. A meta-analysis using standardized mean differences (SMDs) was performed to assess the association between lipid abnormalities and HS.</p><h3>Results</h3><p>The meta-analysis found that HS patients had significantly higher TG levels (SMD = 0.28, 95% CI: 0.09–0.47, <i>P</i> = 0.004) and lower HDL levels (95% CI: -0.53 to -0.16, <i>P</i> < 0.001) compared to healthy controls. No significant differences were observed in total cholesterol (SMD = 0.01, 95% CI: -0.19–0.21, <i>P</i> = 0.93) and LDL levels (SMD = 0.04, 95% CI: -0.10–0.17, <i>P</i> = 0.61). These results corroborate earlier studies linking HS with dyslipidemia, particularly hypertriglyceridemia and hypo-HDL cholesterolemia, with the added strength of using actual lipid values.</p><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>This study confirms the association between hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL cholesterol in HS patients, highlighting the broader systemic association of the condition.

Skin samples from patients diagnosed with other dermatological diseases, malignancies, and diabetes mellitus were excluded from the study.
