Abstract |
Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a dominantly inherited disorder present from birth that causes marked elevation in plasma cholesterol and premature coronary heart disease. It is estimated that there are at 40 million people with FH worldwide, but most remain unrecognised and inadequately treated. To bridge this gap in coronary prevention several guidelines on detecting and managing FH have been published. We briefly review these and comment on the potential role of pharmacists in case detection, point-of-care testing and pharmacotherapy. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 May 2012.
All research outputs
#18,306,425
of 22,665,794 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Clinical Pharmacy
#867
of 1,071 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#126,479
of 164,339 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Clinical Pharmacy
#15
of 26 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,665,794 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,071 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.4. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 164,339 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 26 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 7th percentile – i.e., 7% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
