Algorithm for Detection and Screening of Familial Hypercholesterolemia in Lithuanian Population

2024-01-30

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>BACKGROUND</bold> Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is one of the most common autosomal dominant diseases. FH causes a lifelong increase in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels, which in turn leads to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. FH incidence is widely underestimated and undertreated, despite the availability and effectiveness of lipid-lowering therapy. P...
