An ideal level of HDL is above 1 mmol/L, because a lower level of HDL may increase your risk of heart disease. When you have a bloodcholesterol test, you might have your total cholesterol to HDL ratio calculated, too. Ideally, the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL should be below 4:...
HDL stands for high-density lipoprotein. This is the “good” cholesterol protein, and you want it to be high. In fact, the higher the better. To remember that you want HDL to be high, just think about the first letter. “H” is for high. “H” is also for helpful, as it moves...
Normal S-cholesterol indicates unchanged S-LDL, S-HDL and S-triglycerides in patients with previously acceptable blood lipids Gunnarsson.Normal S‐cholesterol indicates unchanged S‐LDL, S‐HDL and S‐triglycerides in patients with previously acceptable blood lipids[J]. Scandinavian ... C Heyman,R...
To calculate your cholesterol ratio, divide your total cholesterol number by your HDL cholesterol number. For example, if you have a total cholesterol score of 200 and an HDL score of 40; divide 200 by 40 and this equals a ratio of 5 to 1. The lower the ratio, the lower your risk of...
Total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, its subfractions, apoprotein A-I and A-II were measured among patients with old myocardial infarction and compared with those of healthy normal controls. HDL and HDL2 cholesterol were lower in male and female patients with myocardial infarction than those of norm...
HDL cholesterol promotes normal endothelial function and coronary artery vasoreactivityCardiovasular disease is the leading cause of death in women. Unfortunately, the problem of cardiovascular disease in women has been largely ignored as women have been enrolled in limited numbers or excluded entirely ...
The metabolism of HDL subfactions has recently become a subject of increasing interest, largely due to the finding that HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) is inversely correlated with the incidence of coronary heart disease. Hara et al. (1980) established for the first time a separation method for serum...
Systolic blood pressure; DBP: Diastolic blood pressure; BMI: Body mass index; TC: Total cholesterol; FPG: Fasting plasma glucose; HbA1c: Glycated haemoglobin; TG: Triglycerides; HDL-C: High-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C: Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; SUA: Serum uric acid; IQR: ...
A lipid metabolism analysis was conducted by measuring low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-cholesterol), triglyceride (TG), and total cholesterol (TC) levels in automatic biochemical analyzer (Beckmen, AU5831, USA). Besides, We evaluated ...
There were no significant differences in TG, LDL, LDL/HDL, cholesterol/HDL, or very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) between NWO participants and lean, overweight, or obese participants (p > 0.05). HDL was significantly greater in NWO compared to both type 2 (p < 0.05) and type 3 (p <...
