Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Combined hyperlipidemia (CHL) is a very frequent dyslipidemia, being lipid-lowering drugs often necessary in its management. Some genetic loci have been associated with CHL, and modulation of lipid-lowering treatment by genetic polymorphisms has been reported. We have investigated whe...
