We investigated measures for identification of heterozygous lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency in unrelated subjects with primary type IV hyperlipoproteinemia in order to acquire a helpful clue for understanding the correlation between hypertriglyceridemia and the status of being a heterozygous carrier of an LPL gene variant. Identification of heterozygous LPL deficiency was performed by monitoring the...
