The cardiologist explains that tests help in diagnosis and help patients avoid a heart attack
An unpublished study will help little discuss much and disturbing reality for those who live: HF (hypercholesterolemia family), which is an increased cholesterol of genetic origin. In Brazil, it is estimated that over 700,000 people live with the disease, but most have not yet been diagnosed, and in Mato Grosso they do not have compiled data to Sul.
Unprecedented examination in Brazil is investigated by hypercholesterolemia family (HF), a genetic state that raises cholesterol and affects over 700,000 people in the country. Maria Aparecida Pedrossian University Hospital, in Mato Grosso to Sul, participates in research that assesses a food strategy adapted to Brazil, with natural supplements or without. HF can cause early heart attacks and impacts, even in the case of diet and medicine. The study aims to increase early diagnoses and test new approaches to treatment. Participants must have 16 or more, diagnosed HF and cannot have specific diseases. Interested parties can contact the hospital to participate.
Healthy habits, such as a sustainable diet, regular exercises and care for product labels – which warn with a high content of saturated fat, sugars and sodium – are not enough for those who live with this condition.
In Mato Grosso to Sul, the Maria Aparecida Pedrossian University Hospital Clinical Research Center is the one who participates in the national study. The goal is to assess the effects of a food strategy adapted to the Brazilian reality, regardless of whether it is related to the use of natural supplements such as phytosterols and krill oil.
Hypercholesterolemia is a hereditary state that causes the body to produce a very high level of “bad” cholesterol, which can lead to early heart attacks and strokes, even with a balanced diet or the use of drugs.
As the cardiologist Adrian Lugo Ferchini explained, the main researcher at the University Hospital, the examination helps to increase the possibility of diagnosis.
“In addition to the study examining the new approach to treating this disease, it also helps to increase the diagnosis, and therefore patients start treatment at the early stage of the disease, before a heart attack, as it was common in the past. The study began because the family hyperco -stocking is a common cause of premature coronary artery disease, especially the prohibition of a ribbon muscle.
According to a professional, the diagnosis is due to clinical and laboratory criteria. “During a physical examination, we can observe cholesterol deposits on the skin, high LDL-C indicators or total blood cholesterol hypercholesterolemia or premature coronary artery disease. We know that many patients not controlled LDL cholesterol levels, even using drugs available on the market, physical activity and a bad fat diet,” he added.
Search – People with 16 years of cholesterol, with family history, likely or final diagnosis of HF, who use statins or statins from Ezetimiba for at least 6 weeks.
Those who have conditions such as serious nutritional allergies, degree obesity, autoimmune diseases or drugs that may interfere with the examination cannot participate.
Volunteers will undergo screening and, if matched, will accompany for 4 months, with free medical and nutritional grades; Personalized dietary guidelines; Supplements delivered without any costs (or placebo, according to a random draw); Collecting laboratory tests and continuous observations with the research team.
