Researchers assessed the effect of hyperuricemia with and without psoriasis on bone microstructure and volumetric bone mineral density.
Effects of BMI on Outcomes of Intensive LDL-C-Lowering Therapy
Patients receiving intensive low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol-lowering therapy may have better clinical outcomes when their body mass index is normal vs high.
Predictors of Cardiovascular Disease in Dysbetalipoproteinemia
