Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The importance of lowering plasma cholesterol is well documented, but hypertriglyceridemia should not be ignored. Effective management requires proper measurement of plasma triglyceride levels and assessment of underlying causes. Conveniently, the same principles used in management of hypercholesterolemia can be applied to hypertriglyceridemia, and patients should be counseled regarding appropriate dietary measures. If these fail, medication may be necessary. |
