Screening to detect inherited high cholesterol

This study checks children ages 1 to 3 during routine care to see who may have familial hypercholesterolemia, a genetic condition that causes high cholesterol. Early identification can help families learn about next steps and prevention.
This study aims to find and help people with very high cholesterol, which can run in families. If you or your child have high cholesterol, this study may help you understand your risk and get the right care.
This trial is about helping families with familial hypercholesterolemia (a genetic condition that causes very high cholesterol) get screened. It tests a way to reach close relatives so they can learn their risk and consider next steps.
This trial focuses on people referred to a cholesterol (lipid) clinic to help identify inherited high cholesterol. It tests an “interpretive comment” approach to nudge detection—meaning it may help clinicians recognize who is most likely to have familial hypercholesterolemia.
This study looks at children who may have inherited high cholesterol, especially when one parent is affected. It may help doctors detect the condition earlier and understand how it runs in families.
This trial focuses on people with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), an inherited condition that causes very high cholesterol. It aims to better understand and manage severe cholesterol problems that raise heart risk, especially in families.
