摘要
The National Cholesterol Education Program's updated third Adult Treatment Panel report on clinical guidelines for cholesterol testing and management adds to the base of knowledge provided by two previous Adult Treatment Panel reports. Similar to the other reports, it has distinctive features and goals that are in accord with the most currently available clinical trial evidence. The major new feature of the third report is a focus on primary prevention of coronary heart disease in persons with multiple coronary heart disease risk factors. The guidelines provide the rationale for intensive cholesterol-lowering therapy in clinical management, and they provide detailed information to help inform clinical judgment for implementation of both medical nutrition management (therapeutic lifestyle changes) and drug therapy for treatment of high blood cholesterol. Curr Opin Lipidol 13:69-73. (C) 2002 Lippincott Williams Wilkins.
