Abstract

Background and Aims : Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) is a genetic condition characterized by extremely elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and death. Due to its rarity, accurate assessment of cardiovascular outcomes associated with HoFH and how they have changed over time has been challenging. The goal of this study was to assess the prevalence and age-of-onset of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) among patients with HoFH.
