Reveals important new results from clinical trials conducted in Scandinavia, Scotland, Australia, Canada, and the United States. This timely reference reviews the vast body of clinical trial evidence supporting the once controversial view that high levels of serum cholesterol are a major risk factor in coronary heart disease (CHD). The studies presented in Cholesterol-Lowering Therapy: Evaluation of Clinical Trial Evidence promote cholesterol reduction as a highly successful means of preventing heart disease in various populations. Investigates past, current, and upcoming controlled clinical trials of cholesterol-reduction therapies, comparing effects of statins and bile acid sequestrants to triglyceride-lowering drugs and antioxidants.

Containing over 700 instructive tables, drawings, photographs, and bibliographic citations, Cholesterol-Lowering Therapy: Evaluation of Clinical Trial Evidence is a must-read resource for cardiologists, pharmacologists, and upper-level undergraduate, graduate, and medical school students in these disciplines.
