Higher levels of LDL cholesterol in SCD (HR (95%CI) 1.92 (1.0552)), and lower uridine levels in AD were associated with clinical progression (HR (95%CI) 0.78 (0.6299)) (Table 1). In amyloid positive patients, lower uridine levels were associated with clinical progression. In this large ...
The cholesterol ratio is a means of assessing a person’s risk of coronary heart disease. It uses the value of total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol but irrespective of the ratio, an elevated LDL cholesterol needs to be attended to. The cholesterol ratio can be expressed as the ratio of the...

cholesterol is less than 200mgdL−1. Similarly, patients withLDL cholesterollevels of ≥190mgdL−1are considered as ‘high risk’ patients for CVD. In patients with diabetes or existing CHD, the LDL cholesterol level that places an individual at risk decreases to 130–159mgdL−1, while...

Patients with elevated blood levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and total cholesterol are treated by administering β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyric acid (HMB) to reduce the patient's blood level of LDL
