Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) markedly increases the risk of premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Despite available therapies, FH remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. The aim of this study is to characterize FH patients and to evaluate treatment response specifically in those with a confirmed pathogenic mutation. METHODS: We retrospectively analysed 189 adults with...
