Her poignant narrative reminded me of the first patient that I ever saw when I was a bright-eyed intern in the emergency department. He was 31 years old and had been dropped off by his wife for “ear pain” on her way to work. A few minutes later, he had a cardiac arrest and could not be resuscitated. These cases spotlight our dilemma regarding cardiovascular risk prevention starting early in life. How can we prevent these unanticipated cases of serious, sometimes fatal ischemic heart disease in young adults without weighing down an entire pediatric care system? \u0000 \u0000The rhetoric supporting widespread pediatric lipid screening, as well as screening for other cardiovascular disease risk factors in youth, typically begins with recounting the burden of cardiovascular disease in our society. It is the number one killer in the United States and will soon be so throughout the world. We need to prevent it, beginning in childhood when the atherosclerotic process starts. But it does not necessarily follow that lipid screening is a good way to achieve this laudable goal.1 First, population-based approaches are likely to be more effective and cost-effective, especially those that use policy or environmental strategies. Even in the face of the obesity epidemic, for example, lipid levels in the United States have actually improved over the past decade. This trend likely owes at least as much to the reduction of trans fats in the US food supply than to anything clinicians can do. Second, for the large majority of “affected” children whose low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels are modestly elevated, waiting until adulthood to treat is a better strategy because these patients will not experience heart disease in early adulthood and otherwise would have to suffer decades of labeling, futile efforts at behavior change, and, for the few who are prescribed drugs, mounting adverse effects of long-term treatment. Furthermore, for those who aver that screening will change behavior, the evidence is scarce that “knowing your number” is an effective strategy for children and adolescents, and the results are mixed for adults. Moreover, which behavior to change is nebulous. Hypertriglyceridemia, which accompanies obesity, responds to modest weight loss and carbohydrate reduction, but it is not a strong cardiovascular risk factor.
