WebMD explains what cholesterol ratio means and gives guidelines for reaching the ideal ratio. Learn how HDL, LDL, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and heart disease are linked.
Recently, non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and apolipoprotein-B (Apo-B) have been substantiated to be more reliable predictors of CAD risk. On the basis of available evidence, it is fair to say that non-HDL-C is a more realistic primary target of therapy and can be ...
ApoB and non-HDL better than LDL cholesterol for risk prediction : TNT and IDEALRiordan, Michael O
ResultsThere were significantly positive correlation between the fat component and triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC) level ( r=0.836, 0.852, P<0.05), and significant negative correlation between the fat component and high density lipoprotein (HDL) level in the fatty liver group ( r=-0.73...
A paucity of studies exists that correlate non-HDL cholesterol with HUA or gout, necessitating further research for correlative analysis in future studies. Previous studies have concentrated on the association of a single factor with HUA or gout and have lacked a comprehensive analysis of the people...

A table-top device was used to assay fingerstick samples for non-HDL cholesterol (non-HDL-C), which was used to divide participants into two groups based on the non-HDL-C threshold for comparison of the remaining metrics between groups. A significant number of children had low scores, and...
the eight cardiovascular health components," Pérez said. Nearly 30% of women had an overall ideal cardiovascular health score compared to 24% of men. "Men had lower nicotine exposure, lower non-HDL cholesterol and higher blood pressure, whereas women had lower physical activity scores," she ...
[2000]), a regular but moderate consumption of alcohol in general can have a positive effect on health by increasing the level of HDL cholesterol and reducing the risk of heart and vascular diseases, though other studies do not report positive health effects of low or moderate alcohol ...
