Description

In this issue of Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, guest editors Drs. Connie B. Newman and Alan Chait bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Lipids: Update on Diagnosis and Management of Dyslipidemia. When untreated, dyslipidemia may have serious comorbidities; in this issue, top experts cover the evaluation and management of LDL cholesterol and high triglicerides in adults and children, providing practical information that will help physicians and other health care professionals treat their patients and improve outcomes. Contains 13 practice-oriented topics including lipid and lipoprotein metabolism; measurement of lipids and advanced lipid testing; assessment of CVD risk; inherited forms of hypercholesterolemia; new and emerging therapies for dyslipidemia; and more. Provides in-depth clinical reviews on diagnosis and management of dyslipidemia, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field.
