Management of disorders of cholesterol, triglyceride, and lipoprotein metabolism. Report 6 of the Council on Scientific Affairs
The American Medical Association House of Delegates adopted a set of
diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations concerning the management of
disorders of cholesterol, triglyceride, and lipoprotein metabolism at its
annual meeting in 1994. In recognition of the advances made during the past
decade in the prevention and management of coronary heart disease, these
recommendations updated those made previously. In addition, recommendations
concerning the management of clinical risk factors for coronary heart
disease were expanded to include infants, children, and adolescents.
