Lipid disorders often co-occur with other prevalent conditions such as diabetes and kidney disease; they are also often a concern with certain medication regimens (such as anti-retroviral and certain anti-psychotic agents). Proper treatment of dyslipidemia can reduce the risk of peripheral arterial disease, revascularization procedures, nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiac death. However, only 20% of adults meet the national guidelines for cholesterol controlOxford American Cardiology LibraryLipidsMetabolismDisordersTreatmentAtherosclerosisTreatmentCoronary heart diseaseElectronic books.LipidsMetabolismDisordersTreatment.AtherosclerosisTreatment.Coronary heart disease.616.3/997616.3997Baliga R.
