Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is at least twofold more prevalent in French Canadians from QuΓ©bec than in most Western populations. Although our recent data confirmed this high frequency of heterozygous FH in our pediatric population with hypercholesterolemia, none of the five established molecu

Leprechaunism is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by marked intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation, severe insulin resistance, and altered glucose homeostasis. This syndrome is related to mutations in the insulin receptor (IR) gene that impair the transmission of the insulin
