- W3149768071 abstract "Abstract Background: Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) represents the most frequent monogenic disorder with an estimated prevalence of 1:250 in the general population. Diagnosis during childhood enables early initiation of preventive measures, reducing the risk of severe consecutive atherosclerotic manifestations. Nevertheless, population-based screening programs for FH are scarce. Methods: In the VRONI study children aged 5 to 14 years in Bavaria are invited to participate in a FH screening program during regular pediatric visits. The screening is based on LDL-C measurements from capillary blood. If exceeding 130 mg/dl (3.34 mmol/l), i.e. the expected 95 th percentile in this age group, subsequent molecular genetic analysis for FH is performed. Children with FH pathogenic variants enter a registry and are treated by specialized pediatricians. Furthermore, qualified training centers offer FH-focused training courses to affected families. For first degree relatives, reverse cascade screening is recommended to identify and treat affected family members. Results: Implementation of VRONI required intensive prearrangements for addressing ethical, educational, data-safety, legal and organisational aspects, which will be outlined in this paper. Recruitment started in January of 2021, within two months more than 280 pediatricians screened over 1,150 children. Approximately 60,000 children are expected to be enrolled in the VRONI study until 2024. Conclusion: VRONI aims to test the feasibility of a population-based screening for FH in children in Bavaria, intending to set the stage for a nation-wide FH screening infrastructure. Further we aim to validate genetic variants of unclear significance, detect novel causative mutations, and contribute to polygenic risk indices.
