Hyperlipidemia, dyslipoproteinemia and apolipoproteinopathia--classification and risk of atherosclerosis. Part 2: Hypercholesterolemia.
This paper sums up recent intervention epidemiological studies of primary atherogeneous hypercholesterolemias. The authors include in this category familial hypercholesterolemia, familial combined hyperlipidemia, and polygenous hypercholesterolemia. Individual disorders are thoroughly analyzed in view of their early diagnostics, differential diagnostics and clinical state. The paper also deals with relatively harmless hypercholesterolemias and their clinical and biochemical criteria.
