title: Case 4: type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia.
abstract: Patients at risk for coronary heart disease often have multiple underlying risk factors, including hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia. The focus of this month's CME case study is recognition of these often silent and coexisting diseases, and the selection of appropriate therapy that will not adversely affect management of comorbid conditions.
