Evaluation of dyslipidemia based on ATP III guideline in adults in Southwest Iran: a population-based study.

ABSTRACT: Dyslipidemia is a primary risk factor for cardiovascular disease. This study aims to investigate the prevalence of dyslipidemia and its associated risk factors in the southwest region of Iran. This population-based cross-sectional study was conducted with 9846 participants aged 35 to 70 in southwest Iran.
