Now, for the first time, clinicians can find such a reference in Therapeutic Lipidology. This volume will provide practicing clinicians with a focused and intensive but useable source of information on the identification and management of dyslipidemias. Among the topics discussed in this groundbreaking text are lipoprotein metabolism, pharmacological therapy for cardiovascular disease, thiazolidinediones on serum lipoproteins, hypertriglyceridemia, dyslipidemia and obesity, dyslipidemia in children, and much more.</p> <p>The pace of scientific and clinical advances in lipidology is astounding. This reference will serve as a lifelong stimulus to the reader to continue to learn about the ever changing and fascinating field of therapeutic lipidology. Comprehensive and cutting-edge, Therapeutic Lipidology will empower readers to improve and extend the lives of the patients they so conscientiously serve.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>The second edition of this important book provides an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of clinical lipidology. Brand new chapters focus on recent advances in the field including novel biomarkers and the microbiome, genomics of cardiovascular risks, PCSK9 inhibitors, imaging technologies, and epidemiology of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.</p><p>The book describes new guidelines, novel therapeutic agents, and changes in the understanding of specific lipoproteins and subclasses with regard to their relationships to cardiovascular disease risk.
