Dyslipidaemia can contribute to the development of atherosclerosis, a build up of fatty deposits in the blood vessels which may lead to the development of cardiovascular diseases. It is also a risk factor for chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease and stroke.
The trial has been approved by an independent ethics committee and eligible participants will be reimbursed for their time.
