Abstract
- Abnormalities in HDL-cholesterol and triglyceride values in adults increase the risk for cardiovascular disease, and the prevalence in children has advanced over the last two decades. These values track into adulthood, and already predict sub-clinical disease in adolescents. Pediatric screening and lifestyle changes such as nutrition and exercise are important considerations. HDL and triglyceride values are excellent markers of cardiovascular health and potential targets. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
