5. Low-density Lipoprotein Lowering in Patients with Familial Hypercholesterolemia – A Retrospective Study from the Dyslipidemia Unit at Karlstad Central Hospital
Master-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaperSammanfattning : Introduction Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disease affecting 1 in 300 individuals, leading to elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Early diagnosis and initiation of lipid lowering treatment (LLT) – mainly statins and a new type of LLT; PCSK9-inhibitors – are essential to prevent atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).
