A cholesterol test will measure the total cholesterol in your blood, and your total cholesterol levels are made up of a combination of your LDL, HDL, and VLDL (very low-density lipoprotein, another "bad" cholesterol) levels. A total cholesterol score of 200 mg/dL or lower is considered opt...
These lipoproteins are commonly referred to as “good” cholesterol or “bad” cholesterol. What makes some cholesterol “bad” is that some lipoproteins are more likely to cause plaque buildup. “Good” cholesterol“Bad” cholesterol HDL cholesterol“H” means you want it high LDL cholesterol“L...

One of the patients (V-2, 4 years of age) is too young, and plasma cholesterol levels are not informative in this case17. In another XLID family with a CCDC22 mutation (p.Y557C) (ref. 18), we found that the circulating total cholesterol (TC) and LDL cholesterol of the two ...

LDL-C, even at levels currently considered normal, is independently associated with the presence and extent of early systemic atherosclerosis in the absence of major CVRFs. These findings support more effective LDL-C lowering for primordial prevention, even in individuals conventionally considered at ...
