The common forms of CVD have a complex etiology in which interactions between multiple genetic and environmental factors play an important role. Dyslipidaemia is one of many independent cardiovascular risk factors that have been identified for CVD, and its correct identification is of great importance in order to implement specific interventions, especially for CVD prevention. The aim of this study was the characterization of the dyslipidaemia in a sample of the Portuguese population.engDoenças Cardio e Cérebro-vascularesCardiovascular DiseaseDyslipidaemiaPortugalconference object
