Acute effects of low density lipoprotein apheresis on metabolic parameters of apolipoprotein B

Acute effects of low density lipoprotein apheresis on metabolic parameters of apolipoprotein B

Apheresis is a treatment option for patients with severe hypercholesterolemia and coronary artery disease. It is unknown whether such therapy changes kinetic parameters of lipoprotein metabolism, such as apolipoprotein B (apoB) secretion rates, conversion rates, and fractional catabolic rates (FCR)....
