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...
Sexual problems can occur as a result of type 2 diabetes. Since diabetes can damage the blood vessels and nerves in the sex organs, decreased sensation can develop, potentially leading to difficulties with orgasm. Vaginal dryness in women and impotence in men are other complications of diabetes. ...
These results also support the notion that cholesterol alone, in the absence of other known conventional CVRFs, may be enough to drive the development of atherosclerosis in humans (33). Multivariable analysis yielded similar results when LDL-C was replaced with non–HDL-C, suggesting no advantage...
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 ...
high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-c, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; FINS, fasting insulin; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; AKP, alkaline phosphatase; GGT, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase; CRP, C-react...
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...

We associated the risk of stone formation with the amount of cholesterol released into bile and the amount of de novo-synthesized cholic acid. For both groups, we determined the conditions of low and high risk. In addition, we analyzed the potential effects of changes in gall bladder motility...
However, in patients with in-trial HDL cholesterol levels <0.7 mmol/liter, apolipoprotein(a) predicted up to 37% of the arteriographic changes. Conclusions. Serum lipoprotein(a) levels predict coronary artery lumen changes in normal to moderately hypercholesterolemic white men with CAD; its ...
