Description: This book provides an overview of the latest developments in this complex field by reviewing the most significant papers published on Dyslipideamia in the medical journals over the twelve months to December 2003.
Lipid disorders, blood pressure and cigarette smoking are mutable coronary heart disease risk factors, which when modified can change risk. Similarly type 2 diabetes increases the propensity for cardiovascular disease. The specialist or GP must therefore be aware of the implications of these different problems, and also be up to date with the range of therapeutic and prophylactic options available for the management of the patient. The Year in Dyslipidaemia provides a guide to these possibilities, based on the most recent developments in the peer-reviewed literature. |
