Morphology
hyperlipoidemia = lipoidemia (semi-transparent) = hyper + lipoid + emia
Removing hyper- leaves a specialist medical base whose meaning is compositional but not likely familiar to an average learner.
Etymology
Hyperlipoidemia breaks into three parts. Hyper- means 'over' or 'too much', as in hyperactive, lipo- means 'fat', and -emia means 'blood condition', as in anemia. So it means 'too much fat in the blood'.
