Abstract: Children with familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) have elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations since birth, which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. Arterial injury and stiffness parameters, including carotid intima media thickness (cIMT), pulse wave velocity (PWV) and distensibility (DIST), can be detected early in childhood. We studied the associations between cIMT, PWV and DIST with the lipoprotein profile assessed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and with influential variables such as blood pressure (BP) or body mass index (BMI) in children with FH.In this cross-sectional study, we included 201 children (96 with FH and 105 non-FH controls). Clinical history, physical examination and standard biochemical studies were performed. FH genetic testing was performed when clinically indicated. Carotid ultrasonography and an advanced lipoprotein profile by 1H NMR were performed. Multivariate and classification methods were used. There were no differences between cIMT, PWV and DIST between FH and non-FH children. FH children presented more total LDL and large, medium and small particles. Small LDL particles, BMI and systolic BP determined the presence of pathological IMT in the FH group. LDL size, high-density lipoproteins and very low-density lipoprotein particles together with blood pressure determined the presence of pathological arterial wall elasticity.Alterations in lipoprotein parameters assessed by are associated with early structural and functional arterial characteristics in children with FH. BMI and BP act as boosting factors. Cardiovascular prevention should start early in children with FH, encompassing all components of a healthy lifestyle.Copyright © 2023 The Author(s).
