Backgrounds: Sitosterolemia is an inborn error of sterol metabolism caused by pathogenic variation of ABCG5 or ABCG8. It is characterized by increased plant sterol levels, xanthomas, and accelerated atherosclerosis; however, it is likely to be underdiagnosed in the clinical field. This study aims to describe the genetic variance of clinically confirmed patients with sitosterolemia and analyze the clinical spectrum according to genetic variance.<p class="ab...
