Early atherosclerosis in familial hypercholesterolemia patients: significance of vascular markers for risk stratification

2024-02-22

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>BACKGROUND Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder that manifests as impaired low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) metabolism, resulting in lifelong exposure of high cholesterol levels and increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). There is heterogeneity in cardiovascular risk for FH patients, and therefore, risk stratification is of utmost importance. The...
