چکیده
INTRODUCTION — There are a variety of different lipid disorders that can occur as either a primary event or secondary to some underlying disease [1]. (See "Secondary causes of dyslipidemia".) The primary dyslipidemias are associated with overproduction and/or impaired removal of lipoproteins (table 1). The latter defect can be induced by an abnormality in either the lipoprotein itself or in the lipoprotein receptor.
