Abstract:
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is the leading cause of death of urban and rural residents in China, and dyslipidemia is the most important pathogenic risk factor for the occurrence and development of ASCVD. Faced with the increasing ASCVD burden in China, there is an urgent need to improve the lipid management in China. Clinical blood lipid testing is an important component of lipid management, and the accurate test results are a fundamental requirement for effective lipid management. The "China guidelines for clinical lipid profile testing" and "China guidelines for lipid management (2023)" are newly published. With the continuous updating of concepts on clinical lipid profile testing and lipid management, it is essential to further strengthen the communication and cooperation between clinical medicine and laboratory medicine, widely promote and apply the new concepts of updated guidelines, in order to better guide clinical practice, comprehensively improve the level of clinical lipid profile testing and lipid management in China, and assist in the standardized prevention and treatment of ASCVD in China and the early arrival of the turning points.
