Comparing extremes of the spectrum, multivariable analyses generally showed significantly higher risks for patients with high ...

Lipoprotein(a), a fatty particle, can clog arteries just as surely as cholesterol but often goes undetected, striking ...

Patients with hyperlipidemia treated with evolocumab had a greater reduction in atherogenic lipoprotein particles compared with those who received placebo, according to a post hoc subanalysis ...

Although traditional lipid measures have been proven useful in assessing and managing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), the potential clinical utility of alternative lipoprotein ...

Clin Lipidology. 2009;4(5):565-571. Although the importance of LDL-P and its relation to CAD risk is still being evaluated, there appears overall to be a strong relationship between LDL-P and future ...

Multiple plasma lipoprotein particles and metabolic markers are associated with risks of MI and ischemic stroke, a new analysis shows. With the aid of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, ...

This predominance of small, dense LDL particles has been termed the atherogenic lipoprotein profile (ALP) and is linked to several metabolic issues that help explain its atherogenicity. [5] This trait ...

Q: How much does a normal or high HDL cholesterol protect you from the adverse health effects of a high LDL cholesterol? A: ...

We believe this approach provides the only direct physical measurement of lipoprotein particle size and concentration for each lipoprotein subclass, from small HDL to large VLDL," said Richard E.

Familial correlations were estimated using the FCOR2 program of SAGE. 21 The uniform weight to pedigrees option was chosen. This programme estimates correlations among relatives taking into account ...

Exercise has a direct influence on LDL metabolism and a positive impact on cholesterol size. 13 One explanation for the benefits of exercise is that a TG-rich environment fosters formation of sdLDL; ...
