Low-density lipoprotein (LDL): This is often referred to as "bad" cholesterol because too much of it can build up in your arteries and formplaques, which increases the risk ofheart diseaseorstroke. As a general rule, you should keep LDL levels low to prevent plaque formation. High-density...
Full size table To find an optimal cut-off value, we performed ROC analyses and calculated the Youden-Index. The cut-off values were as follows: LDL 2.95 mmol/L, HDL 1.32 mmol/L, LDL/HDL 2.02, and TC/HDL 3.15. In binary multivariate logistic regression, these cut-offs were shown to ...
Form of Genetically Elevated 'Good' Cholesterol May Actually Be Bad Results: In our study levels of TC and LDL-C were significantly increased in patients of MDD while HDL-C was decreased in patients of MDD compared to healthy control. COMPARISON OF MEAN TOTAL CHOLESTEROL (TC), HIGH DENSITY ...
Less is known about the role of native LDL in immune homeostasis and response to infection. Whereas oxidised LDL is recognised by macrophages with proatherogenic and proinflammatory consequences, the immunomodulatory properties of non-oxidised LDL are not understood [40]. LDL is known to be able to...

Three classes of agents that raise HDL-C in addition to lowering low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and/or plasma triglycerides have been tested. Although trial results with fibrates and niacin produced variable outcomes, meta-analyses supported the beneficial effects of both, although it was not ...
I believe this story shows the value of a new form of science: personal experimentation, exploration of ideas on blogs, and the sharing of experiences online. It takes medical researchers years – often decades – to track down the causes of simple phenomena, such as high LDL on low carb....

We observed smaller LDL in RRMS patients compared to healthy controls and to progressive MS patients. Furthermore, low-BMI (BMI ≤ 23 kg/m2) RRMS patients show increased levels of small HDL (sHDL), accompanied by larger, triglyceride (TG)-rich VLDL, and a higher lipoprotein insulin ...
