Update of the Portuguese Familial Hypercholesterolaemia Study.

Atherosclerosis - 1 Oct 2010

Medeiros A M, Alves A C, Francisco V, Bourbon M

Abstract excerpt

The main aim of the Portuguese Familial Hypercholesterolaemia Study is to identify the genetic cause of hypercholesterolaemia in individuals with a clinical diagnosis of Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH). A total of 1340 blood samples were collected from 482 index patients and 858 relatives with the collaboration of clinicians from several hospitals all over the country. The genetic diagnosis of FH in this...
