Dyslipoproteinemia and diabetes

T J Orchard. Endocrinol Metab Clin North Am. 1990 Jun.

Abstract

Lipoprotein changes in diabetes are discussed from both a pathophysiologic and clinical viewpoint. Though differences in concentrations are often small and vary according to the type of diabetes, other changes in lipoprotein metabolism are presented. The interrelationships between diabetes, insulin, and heart disease are also discussed, with the central role of insulin being stressed. Finally, the clinical management of lipid disorders in diabetes is addressed.
