Effectiveness of genetic cascade screening for familial hypercholesterolaemia using a centrally co-ordinated clinical service: An Australian experience

Background: Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a co-dominantly inherited disorder of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) catabolism, causing elevated LDL-cholesterol and premature coronary artery disease (CAD). Several guidelines recommend genetic cascade screening relatives of probands (index cases)...
