Objective To quantify the relative prevalence of surrogate markers of vascular risk in adults with partial GH deficiency (GH insufficiency, GHI).
Context Hypopituitary adults with untreated GH deficiency (GHD) have an excess vascular mortality and demonstrate clustering of adverse vascular risk factors. The vascular risk profile of GHI adults has yet to be comprehensively studied.
Design A cross‐sectional...
Both defective LDL receptors (familial hypercholesterolaemia, FH) and mutations in apolipoprotein B (apoB) on LDL (familial defective apoB, FDB) give rise to a phenotype of elevated LDL cholesterol. We sought to compare the metabolic basis of the two conditions by examining apoB turnover in FDB and FH subjects. A group comprising three heterozygous and one homozygous FDB subjects were compared with...
