Heterogeneous Postprandial Lipoprotein Responses in the Metabolic Syndrome, and Response to Fenofibrate Therapy

Background Hypertriglyceridemia subjects with metabolic syndrome exhibit variable postprandial triglyceride responses. We investigate the effects of fenofibrate therapy on postprandial triglyceride-containing lipoproteins in subjects with early (3.5 h) versus late (8 h) postprandial triglyceride res...

We investigate the effects of fenofibrate therapy on postprandial triglyceride-containing lipoproteins in subjects with early (3.5 h) versus late (8 h) postprandial triglyceride responses.
