Accuracy of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol estimation at very low levels
BACKGROUND As the approach to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering becomes increasingly intensive, accurate assessment of LDL-C at very low levels warrants closer attention in individualized clinical efficacy and safety evaluation. We aimed to assess the accuracy of LDL-C estimation at very low levels by the Friedewald equation, the de facto clinical standard, and compare its ac...
متن کاملSafety of Very Low Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Levels With Alirocumab: Pooled Data From Randomized Trials.
BACKGROUND Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 monoclonal antibodies can reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) to very low levels when added to background lipid-lowering therapy. OBJECTIVES The safety of alirocumab was evaluated in patients with at least 2 consecutive LDL-C values <25 or <15 mg/dl in the ODYSSEY program, with follow-up as long as 104 weeks. METHODS Po...

International clinical practice guidelines on dyslipidemia emphasize the importance of matching the use and intensity of statin therapy with the absolute risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Indeed, independent of the baseline level of dyslipidemia, patients who have entered the intervention arms of randomized clinical trials of statin therapy with similar absolute risks of CVD...
متن کاملVery Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL)
Triglyceride (TG) or more accurately triacylglycerol is simply a compound of three acyl groups (fatty acids) attached to a glycerol molecule. They are easily measured in the laboratory and reported as serum TG level: it actually refers to all of the TG that are being trafficked within all of the lipoproteins that exist in a deciliter of plasma. A physiologic fasting TG concentration is on avera...
