LIPIDgen
The LipidGen test is a genetic analysis that provides detailed information regarding potential lipid metabolism disorders, such as atherosclerosis (conditions affecting medium and large arteries that can lead to the development of ischemic heart diseases).
ABOUT LIPIDGEN
LipidGen analyzes several genetic polymorphisms known to be involved in the occurrence of type III hypercholesterolemia and the development of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a chronic, progressive disease influenced by various factors, developing slowly over decades, which is why it can be asymptomatic for a long time. As a silent disease, its complications can arise suddenly and can be fatal in many cases. The arteries primarily affected are the coronary arteries that supply the heart, followed by the cerebral arteries that supply the brain, and the large arteries that supply the legs (such as the iliac artery and the femoral artery).
WHO AND WHEN SHOULD BE TESTED?
LipidGen is a genetic test suitable for individuals suspected of having vascular problems, heart diseases, or with a family history related to atherosclerosis. This test will provide you with personalized recommendations based on genetic predisposition analysis and an appropriate prevention plan.
RESULTS AND INTERPRETATION
The LipidGen test is based exclusively on genetic analysis conducted using a blood or saliva sample.
– Detailed individual results that are valid for a lifetime
– Personalized prevention recommendations
– Detailed information regarding any relevant genetic variation
– Customized treatment recommendations.
