In patients requiring blood lipid monitoring, it may be concluded that if TC, LDL, HDL and TG levels are acceptable in one blood sample, this is sufficient to monitor TC levels. If TC levels remain acceptable, there is no need to analyse LDL, HDL and TG levels more than every second ...
High-density lipoprotein (HDL): Female: ˂50 mg/dL; male: ˂40 mg/dL Low-density lipoprotein (LDL): ˂100 mg/dL Acid base Normal acid base ranges include the following [1] : pH: 7.38–7.44 Base excess: (-3)-(+3) H+: 36-44 nmol/L Partial pressure of oxygen (pO2...

one of which involves 12-LO and each of which can be inhibited by normal HDL, and b) HDL from at least some coronary artery disease patients with normal blood lipid levels is defective both in its ability to prevent LDL oxidation by artery wall cells and in its ability to inhibit the bi...
(HDL) cholesterol is considered "good" cholesterol because it actually works to keep the LDL, or "bad" cholesterol from building up in your arteries. The higher the HDL, the better. HDL levels of 60 mg/dL and higher can help reduce your risk for heart disease. Conversely, HDL levels of...
The patients and controls were well matched for age and BMI. There were no significant differences in LH, FSH, LH/FSH, E2 (Estradiol), T (testosterone) levels, blood glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),...
BACKGROUND: This study was designed to estabilish serum LDL cholesterol(LDL-C) and HDL cholestrol(HDL-C) levels in the Korean adult population and to identify the difference in sex, age, and living place and the incidence of high risk group and the affecting factors on the serum lipid lev...

Although pravastatin did not significantly influence median apolipoprotein(a) levels, it significantly reduced mean cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels and increased mean HDL cholesterol levels compared with placebo (p < 0.001); the maximal pravastatin effect was reached 3 to 4 weeks ...
Macrophages take up oxidized-LDL, and its increased cellular concentration activates LXRs, which induce the efflux of intracellular cholesterols from macrophages to serum apolipoproteins in the form of HDL, which then returns to the liver in a process termed reverse cholesterol transport. This process...
