Key result

Routine longitudinal lipid profiling supports early risk stratification and management of lifestyle-related cardiometabolic diseases.

Why the study?

Dyslipidemia is a key risk factor for progression of lifestyle-related diseases, making laboratory evaluation of lipid trends crucial for diagnosis, monitoring, and risk assessment.

Key Points

To review laboratory trends of standard lipid parameters and assess their clinical significance, association with disease severity, and role in managing lifestyle-related disorders.
Narrative review examining laboratory trends of total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-C, and HDL-C across lifestyle-related diseases including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity, and cardiovascular disorders.
Evaluation of analytical and pre-analytical factors, biological variability, fasting compliance, and quality control measures affecting lipid profile interpretation.
Elevated triglyceride levels and reduced HDL-C are commonly observed in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, driven by insulin resistance.
Increased LDL-C and total cholesterol levels are frequently associated with hypertension and cardiovascular disease, reflecting heightened atherogenic risk.
Longitudinal laboratory data show that lifestyle interventions and lipid-lowering pharmacotherapy produce favorable changes in lipid trends, whereas persistent dyslipidemia indicates poor compliance or underlying metabolic dysfunction.

This narrative review highlights the clinical utility of routine laboratory lipid profiling and longitudinal trend analysis for early detection, risk stratification, and management of dyslipidemia in patients with lifestyle-related diseases.

Limitations

Biological variability, pre-analytical conditions, and patient compliance with fasting requirements may influence laboratory lipid trends.
Analytical variability and differences in reference ranges may affect results.

Abstract

Lifestyle-related diseases such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity, and cardiovascular disorders are major public health concerns worldwide. Dyslipidemia is a common metabolic abnormality associated with these conditions and serves as a key risk factor for disease progression and complications. Laboratory evaluation of lipid parameters plays a crucial role in the diagnosis, monitoring, and risk assessment of patients with lifestyle related diseases. This paper reviews laboratory trends of lipid parameters, including total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, in patients affected by lifestyle related disorders. The clinical significance of observed lipid trends, their association with disease severity, and the role of laboratory medicine in guiding preventive and therapeutic strategies are discussed. The study emphasizes the importance of routine lipid profiling and trend analysis for effective management of lifestyle-related diseases.

Anush Nazar (2026) conducted a review in Lifestyle-related diseases (diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity, and cardiovascular disorders) and dyslipidemia. Routine lipid profiling and longitudinal laboratory trend analysis (total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-C, HDL-C) was evaluated. Routine lipid profiling and longitudinal trend analysis of total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-C, and HDL-C support early detection, risk stratification, and management of lifestyle-related diseases.
