Cellular cholesterol efflux and cholesterol loading capacity of serum: effects of LDL-apheresis
High LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) characterizes familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH). LDL-apheresis, used in these patients to reduce LDL-C levels, has been shown to also affect HDL levels and composition.

Effect of Zinc Supplementation on Triglyceride, Cholesterol, LDL, and HDL Levels in Zinc-Deficient Hemodialysis Patients [PDF]
Zinc deficiency is known to occur in widely diverse areas of world. It has now been recognized in many disease states, such as ESRD patients on maintenance hemodialysis (HD). The purpose of this research was to study the effects of zinc supplementation on the concentration of serum zinc, total cholesterol, triglyceride, and cholesterol fractions (HDL ...

Elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) enhances proerectile neurotransmission in the corpus cavernosum [PDF]
Hypercholesterolaemia is thought to foster atherosclerosis and impotence through its effects on vascular endothelium. In this study, we investigated the pharmacological changes in rabbit corpus cavernosum (CC) secondary to incubation with lysolecithin and hypercholesterolaemia.

Cardiovascular outcomes and LDL-cholesterol levels in EMPA-REG OUTCOME
Objective: It is well established that higher low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels are associated with increased cardiovascular risk. We analyzed whether effects of empagliflozin on cardiovascular outcomes varied by different LDL-cholesterol ...
