چکیده
The diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia by genetic testing is hampered by its cost and effectiveness [1] in many parts of the world including Africa. Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a common cause of premature cardiovascular disease and is often undiagnosed in young people [2]. The principal metabolic causes of atherosclerosis include hyperlipidemia, hypertension, obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus. Volume 5 Issue 6 2017
