The Inherited Hypercholesterolemias
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2022Inherited hypercholesterolemias include monogenic and polygenic disorders, which can be very rare (eg, cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX)) or relatively common (eg, familial combined hyperlipidemia [FCH]). In this review, we discuss familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), FH-mimics (eg, polygenic hypercholesterolemia [PH], FCH, sitosterolemia), and other

Screening for Hypercholesterolemia
Annual Review of Medicine, 1990The detection of individuals with hypercholesterolemia has received world-wide support as a means of determining who would benefit from dietary and pharmacologic interventions. However, the clinician or public health practitioner should be aware of several issues that must be resolved before cholesterol screening can attain maximal impact.

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2004
Abnormalities in the lipid profile though uncommon in pediatric practice pose an increased risk for developing heart disease. Studies suggest that adult cardiovascular disease has its roots in children and young adults. A significant correlation between atherosclerotic changes in children and young adults and total and LDL cholesterol levels also ...

Hypercholesterolemia and angiogenesis
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1993Hypercholesterolemia is associated with endothelial cell dysfunction, which may be partly related to an accumulation of toxic lipoprotein degradation products in artery walls. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein and its products have been incriminated in the impairment of transmembrane signaling, a process that may alter the responsiveness of endothelial ...

Therapy for Hypercholesterolemia
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1990For most patients, hypercholesterolemia can be effectively lowered with drug therapy but only after several issues have been considered. First, drug therapy should never be considered without adequate dietary intervention. Dietary therapy may be effective for many patients with mild to moderate elevations in cholesterol. None of the drugs used to treat

MANAGEMENT OF HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA
Cardiology Clinics, 2000Benefit from the treatment of hyperlipidemia has now been conclusively documented, and this article has focused on the clinical trial data supporting diet and drug therapy in adult patients with different lipoprotein disorders and discussed therapeutic approaches with a focus on reducing plasma concentrations of LDL cholesterol. National guidelines for

Hypercholesterolemia and Platelets
1978Many lines of evidence have linked the circulating plasma lipoproteins with thrombosis, and both with atherosclerosis. Many theories of atherogenesis include mural thrombosis as one of the inciting factors, or the sole inciting factor, for atherosclerotic plaque formation.

Treatment of Hypercholesterolemia
Medical Clinics of North America, 1982After discussing the indications for treatment of familial hypercholesterolemia and the importance of a differential diagnosis, the authors describe drug therapy for the disorder with special attention to combined drug regimens. The surgical treatment of hypercholesterolemia and the treatment of homozygous and other forms of hypercholesterolemia are ...

It is known that high levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) may determine vessel wall damage. As it is also known that tendon tissue insertion to the greater tuberosity of the humerus normally receives a poor blood supply, especially with the arm in adducted position [1], some authors have hypothesized that ...
