LDL-cholesterol value is one of the criteria used by the Haute autorité de santé (HAS) in the management of patients in primary and secondary prevention with the aim to reduce cardiovascular mortality. In this respect, the recommendations have been established based on target to achieve LDL-ch...
Introduction: Direct measurement of LDL cholesterol is a costly method and the Friedewald formula for calculation of LDL cholesterol is applicable in the majority of the population, except for persons with triglyceride levels > 4.5 mmol/l. Therefore, calculated LDL cholesterol is used as a standard...

LDL-cholesterol (LDLc) is the main lipid marker in cardiovascular risk estimation and the principal therapeutic target in both diabetic and nondiabetic subjects (1, 2). The designated comparison method for the determination of LDLc, using ultracentrifugation and precipitation, known as "[beta]-quanti...
BACKGROUND. Our objective was to evaluate the accuracy of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk score classification by direct LDL cholesterol (dLDL-C), calcul
Performance of non-HDL cholesterol (via de Cordova equation) and LDL calculated with Friedewald equation compared to LDL cholesterol measured by ultracentrifugation in a lipid clinic population.Performance of non-HDL cholesterol (via de Cordova equation) and LDL calculated with Friedewald equation compared...
With coronary artery disease and stroke being the number one cause of mortality in the United States [1], there is undeniable evidence that high LDL cholesterol (LDLC) contributes to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). According to the CDC, approximately 78 million Americans (>21...
