The high coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality and the economic costs have led to intensive prevention efforts in Switzerland, where the management of multiple risk factors plays a prominent role. An important risk factor is hypercholesterolemia, one of the main causes in the development of human atherosclerosis. However, the eminence of this risk factor is not yet sufficiently established in the awareness of many physicians. Inappropriate public discussions of the problem have caused confusion among patients and physicians. Therefore, the purpose of the Cholesterin Informations Program of the Swiss Heart Foundation is to work out a far-reaching and objective information strategy for experts and the general population, based on scientific knowledge, as a contribution to promoting the health of the Swiss population.
冠心病的高发病率、高死亡率以及经济成本促使瑞士大力开展预防工作，在该国，对多种风险因素的管理发挥着重要作用。高胆固醇血症是一个重要的风险因素，是人类动脉粥样硬化发展的主要原因之一。然而，许多医生尚未充分认识到这一风险因素的重要性。对该问题不恰当的公开讨论在患者和医生中造成了困惑。因此，瑞士心脏基金会胆固醇信息项目的目的是，基于科学知识，为专家和普通民众制定一项影响深远且客观的信息战略，以促进瑞士民众的健康。
