HDL cholesterol in the range of 20-40 (0.5-1.0 mmol/L) may appear in isolation but is often associated with high triglyceride concentration, insulin resistance and increased risk of type 2 diabetes. Furthermore, some drugs, such as beta-blockers may lower HDL cholesterol. Anabolic steroids can...
You’ve probably heard it is important to keep your cholesterol levels low, but if you want to protect yourself against heart disease you may be barking up the wrong tree. Total cholesterol is actually a fairly poor predictor of heart disease, and LDL “bad” cholesterol is only slightly bet...

To evaluate the association of individual health habits with levels of cardiovascular risk factors such as serum cholesterol and blood pressure, data from a representative population sample of 860 men and 788 women, aged 25 to 64 years and residing in Western Switzerland, were analyzed cross-section...
alpha-lipoprotein,HDL,high-density lipoprotein- a lipoprotein that transports cholesterol in the blood; composed of a high proportion of protein and relatively little cholesterol; high levels are thought to be associated with decreased risk of coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis ...
However, as just explained, there is good and bad cholesterol, which makes efficient joint evaluation of them. Currently the total level is less valued than the individual levels of HDL and LDL. See these examples: Patient 1 - LDL 150, HDL 20 and VLDL 20 = total cholesterol of 190 ...

Background Low plasma HDL cholesterol level has been associated with increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, there have been no studies on the association between HDL cholesterol levels and the severity of AD and improvement following exercise. We have therefore investigated the associat...
