SubjectTopicQuote

Health

The ATP further recognized that many disease entities that elevate triglyceride levels, such as diabetes mellitus, nephrotic syndrome, and chronic renal disease, carry an increased risk of CHD. Other secondary causes of hypertriglyceridemia, such as commonly used drugs, also were listed. (references)

The ATP also addressed hypertriglyceridemia using definitions and recommendations of the National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Conference on Treatment of Hypertriglyceridemia, which convened in September 1983. The ATP regarded the relationship between plasma triglyceride levels and cardiovascular disease as controversial. (references)

Great progress has been made over the past 30 years in identifying cardiovascular risk factors and in developing and implementing measures to correct them. The guidelines developed by the Adult Treatment Panel (ATP) of the National Cholesterol Education Program identified low density lipoprotein (LDL) as the major atherogenic lipoprotein and high levels of LDL cholesterol as the primary target for cholesterol-lowering therapy.
