Autosomal recessive hypercholesterolemia (ARH) exhibits different responsiveness to statins compared with that in homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). However, few data exist regarding lipoprotein metabolism of ARH. Therefore, we aimed to clarify lipoprotein metabolism, especially the remnant lipoprotein fractions of ARH before and after statin therapy.
