摘要：
Although the role of high serum triglyceride levels in coronary artery disease (CAD) has been debated, evidence now points to a link, Triglyceride-lowering treatments, including diet and exercise modifications and pharamacotherapy, can reduce the risk of CAD. Drs Coughlan and Sorrentino review the accumulated study findings, describe primary and acquired hypertriglyceridemia, and discuss the various approaches to treating these conditions.
