The beneficial effects of nutraceuticals and natural products on small dense LDL levels, LDL particle number and LDL particle size: a clinical review

Smaller Mean LDL Particle Size and Higher Proportion of Small Dense LDL in Korean Type 2 Diabetic Patients

BACKGROUND Small dense low density lipoprotein (sdLDL) has recently emerged as an important risk factor of coronary heart disease. METHODS The mean LDL particle size was measured in 203 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and 212 matched subjects without diabetes using polyacrylamide tube gel electrophoresis. Major vascular complications were defined as stroke, angiographically-docu...

LDL particle size and number compared with LDL cholesterol and risk categorization in end-stage renal disease patients.

BACKGROUND Few studies have been conducted that make comparisons between traditional measures of cholesterol and cholesterol subfractions, and only one study has compared low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) particle number, LDL-C particle size and LDL-C among end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between cholesterol measures ...

ldl particle size and reactive oxygen metabolites in dyslipidemic patients

objectives: small dense low‑density lipoprotein (sdldl) which has a small ldl particle size with greater susceptibility to oxidation is regarded as a risk marker for cardiovascular disease. the diacron reactive oxygen metabolites (d‑roms) test has recently been introduced as an oxidative stress‑related marker in the clinic. the aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between...
