Formation of Triglycerides
This first graphic explains the formation of triglycerides and how their concentration in blood serves as a biomarker for TGRL, which promote the formation of atheroma.

This second graphic shows the associated risk for different concentrations of triglycerides in the blood.
This third graphic demonstrates some lifestyle behaviors that can reduce the risk of hypertriglyceridemia.
This fourth graphic outlines the available therapeutic options for severe hypertriglyceridemia as well as novel therapies in development.
This fifth graphic delineates how icosapent ethyl can be used for CV risk reduction as demonstrated by the REDUCE-IT trial.
A video series about hypertriglyceridemia, its health implications and therapeutic options for optimal management of patients.
Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is independently associated with risk of atherosclerotic events, even when LDL-cholesterol levels appear controlled. This INTERASPIRE study determined the frequency of HTG and residual combined dyslipidemia and their related factors in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) from 13 countries across six World Health Organization (WHO) regions.
A contemporary perspective on the assessment and management of cardiovascular risk due to elevated triglycerides.
