Abstract excerpt
The mixed dyslipidemia phenotype is characterized by elevated triglycerides (TG), low HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), increased ApoB levels, and premature coronary atherosclerosis. Fibrate-statin combination therapy reduces ApoB levels and coronary events in the mixed dyslipidemia population. We sought to identify gene-gene interactions that affect ApoB response to statin-fenofibric acid therapy in the mixed...
