Overview
Based on old and recent definitions, Familial combined hyperlipidemia is a common metabolic disorder charaterized by following:-
- An increased cholesterol and/or triglycerides in at least to members of the same family.
- An intra-individual and intrafamilial variability of the lipid phenotype
- An increased risk of premature coronary heart disease.
The high VLDL levels are due to overproduction of substrates, including triglycerides, acetyl-CoA, and an increase in B-100 synthesis.
Historical perspective
- In 1967, Fredrickson using paper electrophosresis , classified lipoprotein disorder.[1]
- In 1973, Familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) for the first time in medical literature was described by Goldstein.
Classification
- There is no established classification for familial combined hyperlipidemia.
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis
The exact pathogenesis of Familial combined hyperlipidemia remains unknown. Several theories have been postulated about the development of a familial combined hyperlipidemia. The underlying mechanisms of the disease involves the following:-
VLDL abnormalities
Causes
The cause of familial combined hyperlipidemia remains genetic.
Differential diagnosis
Epidemiology and Demographics
Epidemiology
Familial combined hyperlipidemia is a a very common genetic hyperlipidemia . The prevalence is estimated to be 0.5-2% in general population annually. Familial combined hyperlipidemia is commonly seen in patients with coronary disease( 10%) , patients less than 60 years of age who have survived an acute infarct (11.3%) and upto 40% in all myocardial infarction survivors. [2][3] More than 3.5 million people in EU and 2.7 million in the US suffer from familial combined hyperlipidemia.[2]
Demographics
Geographical distribution can not be estimated so far as most of the studies conducted on familial combined hyperlipidemia consist of Caucasian population living the United States and Europe.[4]
Age
Familial combined hyperlipidemia is commonly seen in all ages in myocardial infarction survivors.[3] Dr. Iwata in 2003 explained that many patients with familial combined hyperlipidemia present during their childhood.[5]
Gender
Familial combined hyperlipidemia affects men and women equally.
