This book presents state of the art knowledge on dyslipidemia in stroke, covering both basic and clinical aspects in detail. The focus is in particular on two major themes: the clinical significance of dyslipidemia in stroke and the treatment of dyslipidemia in stroke patients. Readers will find up-to-date information on lipid metabolism, biomarkers, and advances in treatment options, including novel biologic drugs. Specific management considerations and pitfalls are also discussed. The individual components of pathophysiology, treatment, and key issues are addressed with the aid of complementary illustrations that facilitate understanding of practical aspects and enable the reader to retrieve fundamental information quickly. This book is timely in bringing together within one volume the most important current knowledge on dyslipidemia in stroke. It will be invaluable for stroke physicians, pharmacists, and students seeking to acquire up-to-date knowledge.
