Hyperlipidemia
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease remains the top cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Atherosclerotic plaques are known to start in adolescence, and, therefore, young adults can be affected by coronary artery disease. Children with known risk factors, such as genetic predisposition, including familial hyperlipidemias, diabetes, and renal diseases, are at higher risk. With childhood obesity becoming an epidemic in certain parts of the United States, this problem is further highlighted as an important issue affecting children's health. There are unclear recommendations for pediatricians regarding cholesterol screening of pediatric populations, when to initiate hyperlipidemia treatment with statin therapy, and when to refer to a specialist for further management. This article reviews the epidemiology and pathophysiology of hyperlipidemia, recommendations for screening and types of screening, management (including pharmacology), prognosis, and prevention.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
