Table 3 Genetic variants identified in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia
| Patients | Genes | Gene functions | Ref. | Variants | ACMG classification | CADD | GnomAD |
| Patient 1 | LPL | Encodes the main enzyme of triglyceride hydrolysis, lipoprotein lipase | [28,31] | Chr8:g.19948197G>A; NM_000237.3:c.106G>A; NP_000228.1:p.Asp36Asn, rs1801177 | Likely benign | 19.6 | 1.6% |
| Patient 2 | LPL | Encodes the main enzyme of triglyceride hydrolysis, lipoprotein lipase | [28,31] | Chr8:g.19956018A>G; NM_000237.3:c.953A>G; NP_000228.1:p.Asn318Ser, rs268 | Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity | 21.3 | 1.97% |
| APOA5 | Encodes apolipoprotein A-V, which activates lipoprotein lipase and participates in the absorption of residual particles and the secretion of very-low-density lipoprotein by hepatocytes | [31] | Chr11:g.116790666T>C; NM_001371904.1:c.563A>G; NP_001358833.1:p.Lys188Arg rs1303929283 | Variant of uncertain significance | 21.5 | 0.0009% |
