Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) always underestimates the true cholesterol burden in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We aimed to compare LDL-C and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) in the identificat
The total blood cholesterol, also known as serum cholesterol level, is scored depending on the danger of cardiovascular illness every cholesterol type triggers. In the United States, cholesterol levels are calculated in milligrams of cholesterol for each deciliter of blood. A result of under 200 ...
Analytical measurement range: 10 to 400 mg/dL Interpretive information Patients should discuss with their provider whether their LDL is normal or abnormal based on their overall risk profile. Target LDL-C levels vary by guideline. The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists and the American...
Analyses of the differences between calculated and BQ-derived LDL-C values versus BQ-derived LDL-C values were conducted for the total dataset. Overall, small differences were observed across the range of BQ LDL-C values for all three methods (Fig. 3). Comparison of the differences between Fr...

(32 mg/dL for LDL‐C, 36 mg/dL for non‐HDL‐C, and 27 mg/dL for apoB) were used in each calculation. Standard errors for each point estimate were calculated from the confidence intervals. The results are presented as relative risk reduction per SD decrease in the marker (ie, 1 ...
In order to characterize a variation range for the diffusion coefficient D, we will consider a normal process for the LDL receptor. This is associated with a diffusion coefficient value of D 0 = (2.7 ± 0.09) × 10- 9 cm2/min, which was determined by Barak and Webb [...
LDL-C was also calculated by Friedewald’s equation. Total cholesterol and triglycerides were assessed through a colorimetric technique (Biosystem®). Statistical analysis Sample size calculations were based on the following assumptions. It was assumed that the effect of Benecol® (vs. placebo) on...
(within and between gels, three ldl replicates on thirty gels). the apparent diameter of the ldl types outlined above was calculated from the mean of two separate gels and the ldl diameters of the study samples converted to ldl types. thus in this study ldl diameter of >26.0 nm defined ...
The concentrations of the modified LDL in these immune complexes are normalized per μg of LDL-Apolipoprotein B or per μg of LDL-cholesterol, and the total level of IC per ml of serum is calculated by multiplying the modified LDL levels by the total level of cholesterol or Apolipoprotein B...
