Diagnosis is important because the lipid abnormality responds to treatment of the primary disorder in most cases; notable exceptions to this, however, are the hyperlipidaemias associated with gout and chronic renal failure.

This view is based on the occasional association of juvenile diabetes with Hashimoto's disease, which is a well-known example of auto-immunity, the presence of thyroid antibodies in some cases of diabetes, and the pathohistological ...

Ezetimibe improves postprandial hyperlipidaemia in patients with type IIb hyperlipidaemia.

BACKGROUND Postprandial hyperlipidaemia is known to be a high-risk factor for atherosclerotic disease because of rapid and lasting accumulations of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and remnants. The Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) protein acts as an intestinal cholesterol transporter and ezetimibe, which inhibits NPC1L1, has been used in patients with hypercholesterolaemia. We investigated effect...
