Severe heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia and risk for cardiovascular disease: a study of a cohort of 14,000 mutation carriers.

Atherosclerosis - 1 Mar 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Some recently emerged lipid-lowering therapies are currently restricted to patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH), and studies are underway to also assess these therapies in patients with 'severe heterozygous FH (HeFH)'. However, no uniform definition of 'severe...
