The impact of low serum triglyceride on LDL-cholesterol estimation.
Most clinical laboratories directly measure serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, and high- density lipoprotein cholesterol. They indirectly calculate low-density lipoprotein cholesterol value using the Friedewald equation. Although high serum triglyceride (>400 mg/dL or 4.52 mmol/L) devaluates low-density lipoprotein cholesterol calculation by using this formula, effects of low serum triglyce...
متن کاملJoint Effects of Serum Triglyceride and LDL Cholesterol and HDL Cholesterol Concentrations
a dummy variable technique that allows simultaneous study of subgroup combinations from the placebo and treatment groups. Medwxs and Results. In the placebo group (n=2,045), the low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)/high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio was the best single predictor ofcardiac events. This ratio in combination with the serum triglyceride level revealed a high-...
متن کاملAssessment of current National Cholesterol Education Program guidelines for total cholesterol triglyceride, HDL-cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol measurements.
We examine the effect of systematic bias and random error, quality control, and intraperson biological variation on the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) clinical classifications for reported lipid measurements. We consider misclassification to occur if a true lipid homeostatic set point is within a desirable range but the reported lipid value is in a high-risk range, or if a true l...
متن کاملMapping of quantitative trait loci for cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglyceride serum concentrations in pigs.
The fine mapping of polymorphisms influencing cholesterol (CT), triglyceride (TG), and lipoprotein serum levels in human and mouse has provided a wealth of knowledge about the complex genetic architecture of these traits. The extension of these genetic analyses to pigs would be of utmost importance since they constitute a valuable biological and clinical model for the study of coronary artery d...
متن کاملUsefulness of serum total cholesterol/triglyceride ratio for predicting the presence of small, dense LDL.
OBJECTIVE We examined the usefulness of the serum total cholesterol (TC)/triglyceride (TG) and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C)/TG ratios for predicting the presence of small, dense LDL, by comparing them with the established indicators of small, dense LDL, such as the LDL-migration index (LDL-MI) and LDL-C/Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) ratio. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fasting serum lipid was analyzed in 99 Jap...
