BackgroundCarotid atherosclerosis, especially the rupture of unstable plaques, plays an important role in the development of stroke. A novel lipid ratio, the non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio, contains both atherogenic and anti-atherogenic particle information, and has been shown to ...

NHHR: An Important Independent Risk Factor for Patients with STEMI
Background: In this study, we investigated whether the ratio of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (NHHR) is associated with the development of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI ...
