Abstract:Dyslipidemia is a significant factor in the progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Recent studies have shown that lipid fluctuations are linked to unfavorable clinical outcomes, highlighting the importance of long-term stable lipid management strategies in delaying the disease process. Moreover, lipid variability has emerged as an important new assessment parameter. Apart from mean lipid levels, the correlation between individual blood lipid variation and CVD,evaluated by metrics such as standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), and variability independent of the mean (VIM), has been well confirmed. This review aims to summarize the research progress on the variability of blood lipid parameters in CVD. The review also highlights the clinical significance of these parameters in the diagnosis and management of these diseases.
