Cardiovascular risk stratification in familial hypercholesterolaemia.

Heart (British Cardiac Society) - 1 Jul 2016

Abstract excerpt

Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a common autosomal-dominant disorder in most European countries. Patients with FH are characterised by a raised level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and a high risk of premature coronary heart disease (CHD). Currently there is no consensus regarding the clinical utility to predict future coronary events or testing for the presence of subclinical atherosclerotic...
