Manual of Lipidology

The book provides comprehensive coverage of basic lipid metabolism, lipoprotein biology, and the genetics of dyslipidemia, along with a detailed discussion on international lipid guidelines.

It offers practical guidance on statins, nonstatin therapies, PCSK9 inhibitors, triglyceride-lowering agents, HDL-targeted therapies, and lipoprotein apheresis.

The book also includes updated discussions on apolipoproteins, lipoprotein(a), HDL, and cardiovascular risk, along with dedicated chapters addressing statin intolerance, statin diabetogenicity, diabetic dyslipidemia, and MASLD.  Special emphasis has been given to lipid management in specific populations, including pregnancy.

By integrating recent clinical trial evidence, evolving therapeutic strategies, and guideline-based recommendations, the Manual of Lipidology serves as a reliable companion for clinicians involved in cardiovascular risk reduction.
