Other | Proband perceptions about their high cholesterol including its etiology, management and heritability at 20 weeks after enrollment compared to baseline | Proband perceptions about their high cholesterol including its etiology, management and heritability were examined at baseline and 20 weeks after enrollment, using a questionnaire administered at these time points. Investigators examined proband agreement/disagreement with statements about the etiology of their high cholesterol, its management and heritability in these questionnaires. Using this approach, investigators were able to determine the proportion of probands that agreed/disagreed with these statements, and could compare how these proportions differed between the groups of interest at baseline/follow-up and how these changed from baseline to follow-up. | 20 weeks after enrollment | |
Primary | Number of probands with relatives enrolled | The primary outcome of this study was the number of probands with family members enrolled in the study within 52 weeks of results being returned to probands. Investigators compared the proportion of probands with a relative enrolled in the genetic testing group with the proportion of probands with a relative enrolled in the usual care group (lipid testing only). Relative enrolment was defined as the return of a test kit within the study time frame. | 52 weeks after genetic/lipid testing results are returned to probands | |
Secondary | The number of relatives enrolled in the study 52 weeks after results were returned to probands | The number of relatives enrolled in the study within 52 weeks of results being returned to probands. Investigators compared the number of relatives enrolled in the genetic testing group with the number of relatives enrolled in the usual care group (lipid testing only). Relative enrolment was defined as the return of a test kit within the study time frame. | 52 weeks after results are returned to probands | |
Secondary | The number of family members diagnosed with FH 52 weeks after results were returned to probands | The number of family members diagnosed with FH within 52 weeks of results being returned to probands. Investigators compared the number of enrolled relatives diagnosed with FH in the genetic testing group with the number of enrolled relatives diagnosed with FH in the usual care group (lipid testing only). This diagnosis had to be made through the study. The number of enrolled relatives diagnosed with FH in each group was expressed as the new case per index case ratio (relatives diagnosed with FH/total number of index case). Relative enrolment was defined as the return of a test kit within the study time frame. The diagnosis of FH was based on meeting either genetic or the Make Early Diagnosis To Prevent Early Deaths (MEDPED) clinical criteria | 52 weeks after results are returned to probands |
