Blood contains lipids, including cholesterol, triglycerides and phospholipids. Triglycerides are part of blood lipids, and blood lipids also include cholesterol. In turn, cholesterol includes HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol. They are all insoluble in water and must bind to certain specific proteins (Apolipoproteins) to form lipoproteins before they can be transported throughout the body in the blood circulation and perform important physiological functions. These are some of the most common lipid tests. Only HDL has an anti-atherosclerotic effect and its elevation can help prevent coronary heart disease and angina pectoris. The rest of the lipid items, such as high triglycerides, may cause pancreatitis, and elevated LDL and total cholesterol may accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis. Therefore, for the elevation of other indicators, pharmacological interventions should be performed. First of all, we should intervene from the diet, suggesting patients to choose a low-salt and low-fat diet, quit smoking and drinking, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. If it is mainly elevated triglycerides, oral benzofibrate or fenofibrate can be chosen; if it is mainly elevated total cholesterol and LDL, patients are suggested to choose atorvastatin and resulvastatin to improve the dyslipidemia.
