Article Abstract
Introduction: It is critical to assess the progress toward achieving the national goal of reducing premature mortality from non-communicable diseases (NCDs) by one-third by 2030 in Vietnam. This study aimed to examine the pooled prevalence of dyslipidemia among the Vietnamese adult population.
Method: Five databases, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CINAHL, Google Scholar, and local peer-reviewed journals were searched from inception to May 2024 without language restrictions. Pooled percentages of all dyslipidemia indicators were derived by random-effect model meta-analysis. We also estimated the pooled crude odds ratio and confidence interval (CI) for factors associated with dyslipidemia and calculated Hedges's g standardized mean for each dyslipidemia component.
Results: Sixty-nine studies were identified as relevant for systematic review, with 41 studies included in the meta-analysis. The overall prevalence of having at least one component of dyslipidemia was 49 % (95%CI = 38%-60 %), and figures for high total cholesterol, elevated triglycerides, increased low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and low high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol were 31 % (95%CI = 25 %; 37 %), 38 % (95%CI = 31 %; 44 %), 21 % (95%CI = 12 %; 32 %), 23 % (95%CI = 16 %; 30 %), respectively. The pooled percentage of overall dyslipidemia was higher in males, in the Southeast region and in studies reported in Vietnamese than those in English. Having diabetes, hypertension, abdominal obesity and overweight/obesity were significantly positively associated with dyslipidemia.
Conclusion: The prevalence of dyslipidemia was substantially high and increased in the Vietnamese adult population. Findings from this up-to-date review reinforce the necessity of effective implementation of NCDs prevention to achieve the national goal.

Steroid hormones are integral to pregnancy and fetal development, regulating processes such as metabolism, inflammation, and immune responses. Excessive prenatal steroid exposure, through lifestyle choices or environmental chemicals, can lead to metabolic dysfunctions in offspring. The research focuses on how exposure to testosterone (T) and bisphenol A (BPA) affects the liver's DNA methylome, a key component of the epigenome influencing long-term health.

Objectives: Dyslipidemia is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Traditional treatments often focus on pharmacological interventions; however, alternative therapies, such as hot spring and sauna use, have recently gained attention because of their potentially beneficial effects on lipid profiles and cardiovascular health.
Design And Setting: This systematic review aimed to synthesize current evidence on the efficacy of hot spring and sauna use, alone or combined with exercise therapy, in improving blood lipid profiles, with a focus on mechanisms, benefits, and limitations.

The symbiosis between intestinal bacteria and the human body's physiological processes can modulate health. The intestinal microbiota is linked to the development of neurotrophic factors; therefore, it is increasingly related to the modulation of nervous system pathologies. Moreover, microbiota can interfere with inflammation and oxidative stress, which are closely linked to cardiovascular risk factors and several other inflammatory conditions, such as kidney and neurodegenerative diseases.

Background: Cushing's syndrome (CS) is associated with increased metabolic and cardiovascular (CV) risk factors and morbidities. Evidence-based guidelines for the management of these issues in active or remitted CS are not available, so best practice is derived from guidelines developed for the general population. We aimed to evaluate the awareness and practice variation for CV comorbidities of CS across Reference Centres (RCs) of the European Reference Network on Rare Endocrine Conditions (Endo-ERN).

Background: Traditional cardiovascular risk assessment entails investigator-defined exposure levels and individual risk markers in multivariable analysis. We sought to determine whether an alternative unbiased learning analysis might provide further insights into vascular risk.
Methods: We conducted an unsupervised learning (k-means cluster) analysis in the Women's Health Study (N=26 443) using baseline levels of triglycerides, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol to form novel exposures.
