least correlation (r = 0.284)Conclusion: Central obesity has a higher impact on LDL levels, hence Waist Hip ratio and Waist circumference are better measures for predicting raised LDL levels compared to the traditionally used BMI.Keywords: anthropometric measurements;LDL levels;waist hip ratio;obesity...
However, the meta-analyses have not considered BMI or family history of CHD in relation to cholesterol (LDL or non-HDL levels). Henriksson et al. demonstrated a negative correlation between height and non-HDL cholesterol even after adjustment for BMI or for waist/height ratio (4). The ...
The amount of variation in serum LDL (C) explained by the rs646776 genotype was 3.6% for the entire cohort (4.1% in females; 3.0% in males; Table 5). LDL (C) levels have been shown to have a weak correlation with BMI in children and adolescents (ages 3–18 y) (15). Oxi- di...
Moreover, sex-specific analyses showed that women have higher LDL-C levels before treatment and high pre-treatment LDL-C was a more significant determinant in women than in men. In addition, women less often receive (high-intensity) statins and ezetimibe. The most common reason for not ...
Race and ethnicity: High cholesterol rates can vary by race/ethnicity, with the highest being among Latinx males and non-Hispanic White females.6 Smoking:Smokingcan independently increase LDL and decrease HDL levels. Other medical conditions: A history of high blood pressure, heart disease, or dia...
Family history of premature CAD was defined as self-reported having a first-degree relative with CAD or sudden death before the age of 55 for men or 65 for women [39]. 2.5. CV Risk Stratification, Dyslipidaemia Subtypes and LDL-C Target Levels A VHR individual was defined as a particip...
Cholesterol testing is done at regular intervals to track changes in your cholesterol levels over time. Repeat testing at regular intervals will be necessary if you have high LDL cholesterol levels, risk factors for heart disease or diabetes, or if you’re being treated for high cholesterol. ...

When separated by gender, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that both LDL-C levels and LDL-C/HDL-C ratio had independent association with advanced N2 stage in males, but not in females. In addition, LDL-C/HDL-C ratio might be a more effective biomarker for identifying N2 stage...
When a person drinks alcohol, their cholesterol and triglyceride levels increase. Males should not consume more than two drinks per day. Females should limit themselves to one drink per day. 治疗高LDL胆固醇 Treatments for high LDL cholesterol ...
