HDL particle number and size as predictors of cardiovascular disease
Previous studies indicate that reduced concentrations of circulating high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles can be superior to HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels as a predictor of cardiovascular disease. Measurements of HDL particle numbers, therefore, bear a potential for the improved assessment of cardiovascular risk. Furthermore, such measurement can be relevant for the evaluation of novel the...

this thesis attempts to measure learning styles, self efficacy and intrinsic motivation as predictors of iranian ielts reading comprehension. in order to address this issue, a quantitative study was conducted on some randomly selected intact students at ferdowsi university. these two groups were assigned as they were undergraduate (ba=91) and graduate (ma =74) students; they were all aged betwe...
HDL Particle Size and Functional Heterogeneity.
Classic clinical and epidemiological studies have long ago established the presence of an inverse relationship between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) levels and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, and thus, it was assumed that measures that increase HDLC levels would afford protection against atherosclerosis-based CVD. However, trials of drugs, such as cholesterol ester transfer pro...
متن کاملAtherogenic Indices and HDL Particle Size as Laboratory Parameters to Evaluate Cardiovascular Risk in the Presence of Dyslipidemia
Dyslipidemia may influence enzymes and transfer proteins needed to the lipoprotein particle remodeling. Calculated indices and evaluation of lipoprotein particle size have widely been used to predict cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was to evaluate HDL particle size and LDL particle size estimate based on TG/HDL-C as well as apoB/apoA-I ratio as possible marker and atherogenic indices...
متن کاملHDL and cardiovascular risk: is cholesterol in particle subclasses relevant?
Dyslipidaemia is one of the major risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease, which remains the leading cause of death in the world. Despite major advances in the treatment of dyslipidaemia, residual cardiovascular risk remains high in a significant number of patients, a fact that has prompted intensive investigation of medications raising HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C). Indeed, robust...
