Results. Total cholesterol (TC) (p = 0.001) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (p < 0.0001) were significantly decreased in cases compared to controls. The levels of non-HDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglyceride (TG) were similar among the ...

LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) was calculated using the Friedewald formula (provided the serum triglycerides level was below 300 mg/dl). ApoA-I and apoB were determined by immunoturbidimetry. HDL-cholesterol/apoA-I (HDL-C/apoA-I) ratio was calculated as a marker of HDL size. Plasma level of ...
