The review discusses several of these factors as well as the potential impact of gene
polymorphism on the variability of postprandial lipoprotein metabolism as intermediate
phenotypes for coronary heart disease. The variability in postprandial lipid response is
highly complex. Future studies will need to be large if they are to assess the effects of
multiple polymorphisms.
