Ratio of total cholesterol (mmol/L) to HDL-C (mmol/L), TC/HDL-C was categorised into five levels: 1st quintile, 2nd quintile, 3rd quintile, 4th quintile and 5th quintile. Non-HDL-C, calculated as total cholesterol (mmol/L) minus HDL-C (mmol/L), was also categorised into quintiles...
The median results in Total cholesterol/HDL-C ratio between Type-2 DM patients with diabetic ulcers and without diabetic ulcers were 6.025 and 3.680 respectively. The median of cholesterol total/HDL-C ratio Type-2 DM patients with diabetic ulcers was higher than those without diabetic ulcers. ...
Background: Total cholesterol (TC)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)/HDL-C ratios are used to predict ischemic heart disease risk. There is, however, no consensus on which of these 2 indices is superior. The objective of the present...
Niacin, a B vitamin, has long been used to increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL), the "good" cholesterol which helps sweep up low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or "bad" cholesterol, in bloodstream. Boosting HDL level can be just as important as lowering LDL cholesterol. Taking niacin, either...

HDL Cholesterol Levels (HDL-C Values and Reference Range) Low: less than 40 mg/dL (< 1 mmol/L) formenOR <50 mg/dL (< 1.3 mmol/L) forwomen High: greater than 60 mg/dL (< 1.55 mmol/L) LDL Cholesterol Levels (LDL-C Values and Reference Range) ...
In our study, we aimed to investigate non-HDL, total cholesterol / HDL-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol levels in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods: This study was performed in 52 patients who were admitted at Ankara Numune Hospital for Education and Investigation, Division of Neurology ...
Results are presented here on the relationship, in a large city in the Federal Republic of Germany, between HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) or the HDL-cholesterol/total cholesterol ratio (HDL-C/TC) and the variables smoking, alcohol consumption, Body Mass Index (BMI), and age. The strength of eac...
CONCLUSIONS: Higher levels of HDL cholesterol were associated with a significant decrease in risk of nonfatal stroke. In contrast, elevated total cholesterol showed a weak positive association with nonfatal strokes. The marked inverse association between HDL cholesterol and stroke seen in hypertensives ...
Patients with elevated blood levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and total cholesterol are treated by administering β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyric acid (HMB) to reduce the patient's blood level of LDL
