Objectives: Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a genetic disease caused by defects in a number of variants, including low-density lipoprotein receptor gene (LDLR) that regulate plasma LDL-cholesterol concentrations. FH typically passed down through families in an autosomal dominant manner. Tha...
