“…In our group of GSD I patients, hypertension did not seem to play a role in the development of nephropathy, because only two of our patients met the criteria for hyperten- sion. Moreover, even in GSD I patients with apparent dyslipidemia, no premature atherosclerosis was shown (22).…”

“…There are conflicting data about this question, and two small series examining clinical surrogates of early atherosclerosis found no evidence to suggest early atherosclerosis. 119,156 Nonetheless, there are a few case reports of patients with early coronary artery disease. 114 It is likely that early atherosclerosis is a rare complication of GSD I and management should aim to maintain normal blood pressure, renal function, and lipid levels to prevent its occurrence.…”

“…Life-long hypercholesterolaemia in young adult GSD Ia patients is not associated with the development of premature atherosclerosis [20,39]. Therefore, cholesterollowering drugs seem not to be indicated in younger GSD I patients.…”

“…Although GSD I is associated with chronic hyperlipidaemia, atherosclerosis in the ageing GSD I patient is remarkably rare [20,39]. A vascular complication that may cause more morbidity and mortality in the ageing patient is pulmonary hypertension followed by progressive heart failure.…”
