Brief Summary:
This study aimed to explore the relationship between familial hypercholesterolemia and premature coronary artery disease, particularly in the context of acute coronary syndrome, by reviewing current evidence and highlighting the need for improved screening and aggressive lipid-lowering strategies in high-risk populations.
Detailed Description:
Dyslipidaemia and familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) are a common disorder that causes premature coronary artery disease.
The lifelong burden of elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in FH accelerates endothelial dysfunction and plaque formation, often culminating in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) at a young age. ACS in patients with undiagnosed FH may be their first clinical manifestation, underscoring the importance of early identification and intervention.
