Cholesterol, High Density Lipoprotein‐Cholesterol (HDL) and Cholesterol/HDL‐ratio Versus Arterial Blood Pressure.

Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1981
Abstract: In a cardiovascular survey of 928 men and women aged exactly 30, 40, 50 & 60 years, a correlation between serum cholesterol, cholesterol/HDL‐ratio and arterial blood pressure was found. This correlation was indirectly caused by mutual correlations to relative weight and age as a final result found after multiple rank correlation analysis

ABCA1: at the nexus of cholesterol, HDL and atherosclerosis

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 2007
Cholesterol is an essential component of eukaryotic membranes. To prevent the toxicity associated with cholesterol overload, cells transport excess cholesterol across the plasma membrane in part through the ABCA1 lipid transporter. The discovery that mutations in ABCA1 are associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-deficiency syndromes led to ...

Usefulness of total cholesterol/HDL‐cholesterol ratio in the management of diabetic dyslipidaemia

Diabetic Medicine, 2004
AbstractAims  Our aim was to evaluate the usefulness of the total cholesterol/HDL‐cholesterol ratio (TC/HDL) in predicting the cardiovascular risk of Type 2 diabetic patients.Methods  Prospective cohort study with inclusion of 418 Type 2 diabetic individuals with follow‐up until the appearance of a cardiovascular event.

LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol or triglycerides—which is the culprit?

Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, 2003
Dyslipidaemia in patients with type 2 diabetes commonly consists of elevated triglyceride levels; normal or slightly elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels with a preponderance of small, dense LDL particles; and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels with a preponderance of small, dense HDL.

Beyond LDL-Cholesterol: HDL-Cholesterol as a Target for Atherosclerosis Prevention

Experimental and Clinical Endocrinology & Diabetes, 2005
Dyslipoproteinemias such as elevated LDL-cholesterol, reduced HDL-cholesterol, elevated triglycerides and elevated lipoprotein(a) play a central role in atherosclerosis. An elevated LDL concentration is pro-atherogenic because LDL are intimately linked to oxidative and inflammatory processes in the arterial wall.

LISREL modeling of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) levels in male twins

Genetic Epidemiology, 1993
AbstractBased on the LISREL modeling approach for data from monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twins [Heath et al., 1989; Neale and Cardon, 1992], the hypothesized variance of the logarithm of high density lipoprotein cholesterol due to additive genetic factors was estimated to equal 19% for males.

Risk of nosocomial infections and effects of total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol in surgical patients

Clinical Nutrition, 2002
Changes of lipoprotein pattern in plasma occur in many acute infections. The aim of this study was to analyse the role of total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol in postsurgical patients with nosocomial infection.Four hundred and eighteen patients admitted to our department and operated on for various diseases are included in this prospective study ...
