Impact of genetic defects on coronary atherosclerosis in patients suspected of having familial hypercholesterolaemia.

European journal of clinical investigation - 1 Jan 2003

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In the present study we assessed whether the presence of genetic mutations typical of familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) was associated with greater atherosclerosis in the coronary vessels in patients with severe hypercholesterolaemia and a family history of early cardiovascular disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two hundred and thirty-five patients selected for having severe hypercholesterolaemia and a...
