==Overview==
==Overview==
Elevated cholesterol level can be caused by a wide variety of factors which include: genetic (e.g. [[familial hypercholesterolemia]]); endocrine (e.g. [[diabetes mellitus]] ); drug side effect (e.g. [[beta blockers]], [[thiazide diuretics]]); kidney disease (e.g. [[nephrotic syndrome]], [[chronic kidney disease]]), and many other factors.

===Life Threatening Causes===
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. High cholesterol in itself is not a life threatening condition.
* Life threatening causes include conditions which result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
* Life threatening causes do not include chronic conditions.
* Make sure to include the following definition underneath the subheading of every life threatening causes section: Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
* The list of life threatening causes is arranged in alphabetical order.
* If the page's disease is itself life-threatening, do not add causes in the life-threatening causes section. Instead, write the following sentence under the subheading:[[Disease name]] is a life-threatening condition and must be treated as such irrespective of the causes.  Life-threatening conditions may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.

* You can then list the causes by organ system. List the causes, separated by a comma under the appropriate category where it says "No underlying causes". Erase "No underlying causes" if you are listing causes in that category.

Overview

Elevated cholesterol level can be caused by a wide variety of factors which include: genetic (e.g. familial hypercholesterolemia); endocrine (e.g. diabetes mellitus ); drug side effect (e.g. beta blockers, thiazide diuretics); kidney disease (e.g. nephrotic syndrome, chronic kidney disease), and many other factors.

Causes

Life Threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. High cholesterol in itself is not a life threatening condition.
