Disfunzione endoteliale e malattia carotidea in pazienti con bright liver echopattern

TERAPIA CON STATINE IN PAZIENTI SICILIANI AFFETTI DA IPERLIPIDEMIA FAMILIARE COMBINATA

Familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) is the most frequent genetic hyperlipidemia. FHCL is associated with high prevalence of cardiovascular disease. In this study we selected 208 patients affected by FHCL and evaluated the efficacy of the lipid-lowering statin therapy using different statins available in the market. The results show that the percent of patients reaching the therapeutic goal ranges from 19.7 % (LDL-C <100 mg/dL) to 50.9% (LDL-C <130 mg/dL) and from 16.9 % (non HDL-C <130 mg/dL) to 46.6 % (non HDL-C <160 mg/dL) according to the different ATPIII-NCEP-guidelines cut offs. In conclusion the statin monotherapy is only partly effective in the management of FCHL therapy
