- KQ1. Does Screening for FH or Multifactorial Dyslipidemia in Asymptomatic Children and Adolescents Delay or Reduce the Incidence of Health Outcomes (e.g., CVD Events or Mortality) or Improve Intermediate Outcomes (e.g., Serum Lipid Levels and Atherosclerotic Markers) in Children, Adolescents, or Adults?
