Abstract excerpt
The impact of apo E polymorphism on interindividual variation in plasma lipid, lipoprotein concentrations, and LDL subfraction profiles was studied in 201 well-defined patients (88 men and 103 women) with familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH). When corrected for the concomitant influences of age...
