Hyperlipidemia, abnormal elevation of plasma cholesterol and/or triglyceride levels, is one of the most common clinical problems that confront the physician in daily practice. Much attention has been focused on these disorders because there is a strong association of hyperlipidemia especially hypercholesterolemia with development of atherosclerosis, and of hypertriglyceridemia with pancreatitis. 1, record 1, English, - hyperlipidemia

Il y a plusieurs graisses qui circulent normalement dans le sang sous forme de particules appelées lipides. On distingue deux types de lipides : le cholestérol et les triglycérides. Pour que ces graisses se mêlent bien au sang, elles sont enrobées de protéines. L'ensemble graisse-protéine ainsi formé se nomme lipoprotéine qui se promène partout dans la circulation sanguine. ... un taux élevé de lipides dans le sang s'appelle hyperlipidémie. 1, record 1, French, - hyperlipid%C3%A9mie
