AB  - While  screening  of  all  children  for  cholesterol  disorders  remains  controversial,  all  adults  should  have  their  lipids  checked  before  middle  age.  Patients  with  CVD  and  diabetes  deserve  the  most  scrutiny  of  their  lipids  since  these  patients  are  at  the  highest  risk  for  suffering  additional  manifestations  in  the  near  term  and  thus  have  the  most  to  gain  from  lipid  lowering.  Additional  risk  reduction  measures  for  atherosclerosis  are  discussed  in  Chapter  10;  lipid  lowering  should  be  just  one  aspect  of  a  program  to  reduce  the  progression  and  effects  of  atherosclerosis.
