Density plot of maximum LDL-C values and regression model of cardiovascular phenotypes. Plot A compares FH and Noncarrier LDL-C, while plot B shows odds ratios for phenotypes like ASCVD, CAD, PAD, TIA, Hypertension, Obesity, Diabetes and Smoking.
Genotype-positive #FamilialHypercholesterolemia in US adults was linked to higher atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease rates and lower achievement of guideline-recommended LDL-C targets.

Density plot comparing max LDL-C values in FH vs. noncarriers. Regression model shows cardiovascular phenotypes like ASCVD, CAD, PAD, TIA, Hypertension, Obesity, Diabetes, Smoking; OR values range from 1 to 4. FH peaks around 200, noncarrier around 100.
Genotype-positive #FamilialHypercholesterolemia in US adults was linked to higher atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease rates and lower achievement of guideline-recommended LDL-C targets.

Big thanks to @pollyhansen.bsky.social for the opportunity to spread the word about #familialhypercholesterolemia and elevated #lpa (and to mention my new memoir, The Full Catastrophe, which illustrates the impact of early loss due to undiagnosed, treatable genetic disorders on those who survive).
When @splitlipthemag.bsky.social says you’re in the fam, they mean it!
Thanks to @wnyt.bsky.social & Split Lip for allowing me to spread the word about #familialhypercholesterolemia and my memoir, The Full Catastrophe. Grief & joy walk hand in hand & spur us to make a difference wherever we can.
Loved chatting with @tamarastarr.bsky.social at @wnyt.bsky.social about #familialhypercholesterolemia, the work of @familyheartfdn.bsky.social, and my new memoir! Learn more at www.caseymulliganwalsh.com

Racial disparities lead to the disproportionately high burden of ASCVD in Black patients with #FamilialHypercholesterolemia. #knowFH
We can advocate for our Black patients via 1° prevention- HTN management & smoking cessation. #CVprev #healthequity #AHA20 @AHAMeetings
