چکیده

BACKGROUND Malondialdehyde low-density lipoprotein (MDA-LDL) is a major form of oxidized LDL and considered to be more atherogenic than LDL. Information on major determinants of MDA-LDL and their association in subjects who are not under treatment for diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia is limited. METHODS This study included 778 Japanese subjects who were not taking medication for diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia. All subjects underwent an annual health examination that included MDA-LDL analysis. Study subjects were divided into four groups according to mean values of LDL-C and MDA-LDL, and the metabolic profile was compared. RESULTS LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were mainly associated with MDA-LDL. When subjects were stratified based on LDL-C levels, small dense LDL-C and MDA-LDL levels increased as LDL-C levels increased. Comparison of the characteristics of study subjects in the same LDL-C level group revealed that subjects with high MDA-LDL showed high metabolic risk in all LDL-C groups, particularly notable in the group with LDL-C levels < 120 mg/dL. CONCLUSIONS Our data indicated that high LDL-C and low HDL-C levels were independently associated with high MDA-LDL. To prevent high MDA-LDL, it is important to lower LDL-C level as well as to increase HDL-C even in subjects with low LDL-C level by lifestyle modification.
