A practical text on the clinical management of dyslipidemias, Practical Lipid Management balances conceptual development and pathophysiology with a straightforward approach to the identification and treatment of abnormalities in lipid metabolism. The book explores the role of novel risk markers in clinical practice, summarizes the current guidelines for lipid management, and offers a critical and systematic approach to iHyperlipidemiaTreatmentCoronary heart diseasePreventionHyperlipidemiaTreatment.Coronary heart diseasePrevention.616.3/997616.3997Toth Peter P1343554Maki Kevin C1668866MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910831085403321Practical lipid management4029765UNINA
