Background. Lipid profile and its related ratios such as total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), TG/HDL-C ratio, TC/HDL-C ratio, LDL-C/HDL-C ratio, white blood cell (WBC)/HDL-C ratio, and fasting blood glucose (FBG)/HDL-C ratio are valuable indicators that ...

Lipid Parameters and Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 in Healthy Lebanese Adults
Background: High levels of non-HDL cholesterol (non-HDL-C), triglycerides (TG), lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)), and Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) as well as low levels of HDL-C are strongly associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD ...

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 ...

Phosphatidylinositol increases HDL-C levels in humans [PDF]
Studies have shown that phosphatidylinositol (PI) can stimulate reverse cholesterol transport by enhancing the flux of cholesterol into HDL and by promoting the transport of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) to the liver and bile. The goal of this study was to determine the safety and therapeutic value of PI after oral administration to ...

Arginine-directed glycation and decreased HDL plasma concentration and functionality [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Decreased plasma concentration of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is a risk factor linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Decreased anti-atherogenic properties of HDL are also implicated in increased

Large-Scale Candidate Gene Analysis of HDL Particle Features [PDF]
Background: HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) is an established marker of cardiovascular risk with significant genetic determination. However, HDL particles are not homogenous, and refined HDL phenotyping may improve insight into regulation of HDL metabolism.
