Evidence-based goals in LDL-C reduction [PDF]

Clinical Research in Cardiology, 2017
The evidence from trials of statin therapy suggests that benefits in cardiovascular disease (CVD) event reduction are proportional to the magnitude of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering. The lack of a threshold at which LDL-C lowering is not beneficial, in terms of CVD prevention observed in these trials, is supported by ...

Comparing calculated LDL-C with directly measured LDL-C in healthy and in dyslipidemic children

Clinical Biochemistry, 2017
LDL-C is one of the strongest markers for atherosclerosis and therapeutic decisions in children are based on its levels. Friedewald formula (FF) which is usually used for the calculation of LDL-C (cLDL-C); and Anandaraja's formula (AF) may under- or overestimate actual levels.To compare cLDL-C with directly measured LDL-C (dLDL-C) as a screening tool ...
