Principles and Treatment of Lipoprotein Disorders

by Gotthard Schettler

Book Overview

Atherosclerosis still affects over 50 % of the population in the highly industrialized countries. This book is an update of the treatment of hyperlipidemia, necessary due to the identification in recent years of molecular mechanisms of atherogenesis. Emphasis is on the disease etiology of arteriosclerosis, the treatment of associated or causing diseases and treatment by dietary means or hypolipidemic drugs.
