==Overview==
Lipoproteins, which are aggregates of proteins and lipids, allow the circulation of hydrophobic lipids in the body. Disorders of lipids and lipoproteins metabolism have important health consequences, mainly on the cardiovascular system. Lipoprotein disorders can be described as abnormalities in the level of the lipids, which include cholesterol and triglycerides, or as abnormalities in the levels of lipoproteins that include LDL, HDL, VLDL and chylomicrons.
[[Lipoproteins]] are aggregates of proteins and lipids that facilitate the circulation of [[hydrophobic]] lipids in the body. Disorders of [[Lipid|lipids]] and [[Lipoprotein|lipoproteins]] metabolism have important health consequences, primarily on the cardiovascular system; however, may also affect the cerebrovascular system as well as the gastrointestinal system. Lipoprotein disorders can be described as abnormalities in the level of the lipids, which include cholesterol and triglycerides, or as abnormalities in the levels of lipoproteins that include [[Low density lipoprotein|LDL]], [[High density lipoprotein|HDL,]] [[Very low density lipoprotein|VLDL]] and [[chylomicrons]].
 
Lipoprotein disorders (also referred to as ''Lipid disorders, or Dyslipidemias, or Dyslipoproteinemias'') were first classified in 1967 into different phenotypes by Fredrickson according to the type of [[lipoproteins]] that are affected. This approach is considered outdated for a number of reasons. Firstly, Friedrickson's classification failed to classify disorders of [[Hypolipoproteinemia|low lipids]]. Secondly, Fredrickson's classification of [[hyperlipoproteinemia]]<nowiki/>s took into consideration the elevation in [[chylomicrons]], [[LDL]], [[Very low density lipoprotein|VLDL]] but did not include abnormalities in [[HDL Cholesterol|HDL]] levels. Other classifications have been suggested, one of which is the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) classification of lipoprotein disorders. NCEP classifies lipid disorders according to laboratory cut off points for the levels of total cholesterol, [[LDL-C]] and [[High-density lipoprotein|HDL]].
 
Lipoprotein disorders must be initially classified broadly into [[Hypolipoproteinemia|hypolipidemias]] and [[Hyperlipoproteinemia|hyperlipidemias]] corresponding to low or high [[lipid]] levels, respectively. Each of these broad categories may be further classified into primary (genetic) causes or secondary environmental causes (e.g. [[substance abuse]], medication use, lifestyle habits, or underlying diseases, etc.). Secondary causes of lipid disorders are more common and thus must be ruled out before exploring the primary causes of dyslipidemia.


Lipoprotein disorders have been initially classified in 1967 into different phenotypes by Fredrickson according to the type of lipoproteins that accumulate. However; Fredrickson's classification of hyperlipoproteinemias took into consideration the elevation in chylomicrons, LDL, VLDL but did not include abnormalities in HDL levels. Other classifications have been suggested, one of which is the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) classification of lipoprotein disorders. NCEP classifies lipid disorders according to laboratory cut off points for the levels of total cholesterol, LDL-C and HDL.
Primary dyslipidemias are generally consistent in the way they affect the [[lipoproteins]]. [[Hyperlipoproteinemia|Hyperlipoproteinemias]] generally cause elevations in the affected lipids/lipoproteins and [[hypolipoproteinemia]]<nowiki/>s generally cause reductions in the affected lipids/lipoproteins. Secondary dyslipidemias, on the other hand, may cause elevations in some lipoproteins and reductions in others. An example of this is the [[lipid profile]] in patients with [[diabetes mellitus]], which commonly reveals a dyslipidemic triad consisting of elevated [[Low density lipoprotein|LDL]] and [[triglycerides]] with a concurrent reduction in [[High density lipoprotein|HDL]].<ref name="pmid20524075">{{cite journal| author=Musunuru K| title=Atherogenic dyslipidemia: cardiovascular risk and dietary intervention. | journal=Lipids | year= 2010 | volume= 45 | issue= 10 | pages= 907-14 | pmid=20524075 | doi=10.1007/s11745-010-3408-1 | pmc=2950930 | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=20524075  }} </ref><ref name="pmid16259526">{{cite journal| author=Nesto RW| title=Beyond low-density lipoprotein: addressing the atherogenic lipid triad in type 2 diabetes mellitus and the metabolic syndrome. | journal=Am J Cardiovasc Drugs | year= 2005 | volume= 5 | issue= 6 | pages= 379-87 | pmid=16259526 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=16259526  }} </ref> In this case, [[diabetes mellitus]] and [[metabolic syndrome]] would be widely considered a hyperlipidemic disease due to the array of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular sequelae that arise consequent to the chronic hyperlipidemia associated with the disease.<ref name="pmid16259526">{{cite journal| author=Nesto RW| title=Beyond low-density lipoprotein: addressing the atherogenic lipid triad in type 2 diabetes mellitus and the metabolic syndrome. | journal=Am J Cardiovasc Drugs | year= 2005 | volume= 5 | issue= 6 | pages= 379-87 | pmid=16259526 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=16259526  }} </ref> This is to say that in cases of mixed (elevated and decreased) findings on the [[lipid profile]], clinicians must evaluate the secondary causes of the dysipidemia and manage the affected lipoproteins accordingly.


Lipoprotein disorders can be classified according to different criteria. First of all, lipoprotein disorders can be classified as primary disorders resulting from genetic mutations and secondary to other diseases. Another way of classifying lipoprotein disorders is as hypolipidemia (or hypolipoproteinemia) and hyperlipidemia (hyperlipoproteinemia) where the lipoprotein levels are decreased and increased respectively. However, the latter classification is not precise and creates some ambiguity, because some people can be labeled as having hyperlipidemia but have simultaneously high level of some lipoproteins and low levels of other lipoproteins depending on the underlying pathophysiology. Hence, a better term to describe the constellation of abnormal lipid profiles is "disorders of lipoproteins", or dyslipoproteinemia or dyslipidemia.

Overview

Lipoproteins are aggregates of proteins and lipids that facilitate the circulation of hydrophobic lipids in the body. Disorders of lipids and lipoproteins metabolism have important health consequences, primarily on the cardiovascular system; however, may also affect the cerebrovascular system as well as the gastrointestinal system. Lipoprotein disorders can be described as abnormalities in the level of the lipids, which include cholesterol and triglycerides, or as abnormalities in the levels of lipoproteins that include LDL, HDL, VLDL and chylomicrons.

Lipoprotein disorders (also referred to as Lipid disorders, or Dyslipidemias, or Dyslipoproteinemias) were first classified in 1967 into different phenotypes by Fredrickson according to the type of lipoproteins that are affected. This approach is considered outdated for a number of reasons. Firstly, Friedrickson's classification failed to classify disorders of low lipids. Secondly, Fredrickson's classification of hyperlipoproteinemias took into consideration the elevation in chylomicrons, LDL, VLDL but did not include abnormalities in HDL levels. Other classifications have been suggested, one of which is the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) classification of lipoprotein disorders. NCEP classifies lipid disorders according to laboratory cut off points for the levels of total cholesterol, LDL-C and HDL.

Lipoprotein disorders must be initially classified broadly into hypolipidemias and hyperlipidemias corresponding to low or high lipid levels, respectively. Each of these broad categories may be further classified into primary (genetic) causes or secondary environmental causes (e.g. substance abuse, medication use, lifestyle habits, or underlying diseases, etc.). Secondary causes of lipid disorders are more common and thus must be ruled out before exploring the primary causes of dyslipidemia.

Primary dyslipidemias are generally consistent in the way they affect the lipoproteins. Hyperlipoproteinemias generally cause elevations in the affected lipids/lipoproteins and hypolipoproteinemias generally cause reductions in the affected lipids/lipoproteins. Secondary dyslipidemias, on the other hand, may cause elevations in some lipoproteins and reductions in others. An example of this is the lipid profile in patients with diabetes mellitus, which commonly reveals a dyslipidemic triad consisting of elevated LDL and triglycerides with a concurrent reduction in HDL.[1][2] In this case, diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome would be widely considered a hyperlipidemic disease due to the array of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular sequelae that arise consequent to the chronic hyperlipidemia associated with the disease.[2] This is to say that in cases of mixed (elevated and decreased) findings on the lipid profile, clinicians must evaluate the secondary causes of the dysipidemia and manage the affected lipoproteins accordingly.
