No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the study is to assess if abnormal lipid levels in childhood could cause early damage of the inner layer of the vessels, the endothelium. Dysfunction of the endothelium is the first event in the development of atherosclerosis, is present at all stages of atherosclerosis and is potentially reversible in childhood. It has been suggested that dyslipidemia, via its detrimental effects on endothelium, could impair renal function. This study will assess the dysfunction of the kidneys in children with dyslipidemia.
