Data collection for each study subject will be done within one physician visit. If an enrolled subject comes to the visit not fasting (for at least 8 hours), an appointment for the blood tests will be made for another day. Prior to the assessment of the first subject at a site, each investigator will complete an investigator questionnaire on his/her experience and perception of the management of hypercholesterolemia in his/her patients. Prior to the assessment, subjects will record on a patient questionnaire their awareness of hypercholesterolemia, their current treatment schedule, their perception, and compliance. The investigator will complete a Case Report Form (CRF) with the subject's demographics, known cardiovascular risk factors, cardiovascular medical history, current lipid-lowering drug therapy, and the reason for this therapy. Fasting blood samples will be taken in tubes to test for total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), glucose, creatinine, hemoglobin A1c, hemoglobin, and hematocrit at a central laboratory in the Russian Federation.
