- W1945663257 abstract "Hyperlipidemia is a well-recognized complication of renal transplantation. In long-term survivors of renal transplantation, cardiovascular disease accounts for the majority of patient deaths. In the cyclosporine era, cardiovascular disease has surpassed infection as the number one cause of death. Risk factors in the transplant population for hyperlipidemia include age, male sex, diabetes, prednisone dose, graft impairment, obesity, and antihypertensive therapy. Recently, cyclosporine has been implicated as an aggravating factor in the development of hyperlipidemia after transplantation, although its role has been controversial. Because renal transplant recipients have other significant risk factors for the development of coronary artery disease, the amelioration of hyperlipidemia may improve long-term patient survival. Because most late deaths occur in patients with a functioning graft, long-term graft survival could also be improved. The role of corticosteroids in the development of hyperlipidemia is well established. Recent studies employing corticosteroid withdrawal after transplantation have shown a marked reduction in cholesterol despite the use of cyclosporine. Data on corticosteroid withdrawal in living related transplants at our center show a significant reduction in total cholesterol after steroid withdrawal. Data from heart transplant recipients under corticosteroid-free protocols show a similar reduction in total cholesterol. Other treatments for hyperlipidemia include diet and cholesterol-lowering agents, such as Mevacor (lovastatin; Merck Sharp & Dohme, West Point, PA). The efficacy of lowering cholesterol in this high-risk population is unknown." @default.
