Importance of lipid ratios for predicting intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis
Background This study aims to investigate the association of lipid ratios with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) in a Chinese population. Methods This cross-sectional study included 658 consecutive patients with ischemic stroke.

Biochemistry laboratories should routinely report non-HDL-cholesterol [PDF]
In 1972, some 20 years before prescription of statins became commonplace, Friedewald et al. published a simple equation whereby low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol could be estimated from measurements of total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol and triglycerides, without the need for preparative ultracentrifugation.

ASGR1 - a new target for lowering non-HDL cholesterol
Non-HDL cholesterol (non-HDL-C) has been introduced as an alternative cardiovascular (CV) risk marker and a secondary therapeutic target in patients with combined hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, or chronic kidney disease. An important genetic study on the Icelandic population has recently identified a strong link between a new ...

Large-Scale Candidate Gene Analysis of HDL Particle Features
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.

Hdl cholesterol and non-cardiovascular disease:A narrative review
High density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol has traditionally been considered the “good cholesterol”, and most of the research regarding HDL cholesterol has for decades revolved around the possible role of HDL in atherosclerosis and its therapeutic ...

Non-HDL Cholesterol as a Predictor of Carotid Atherosclerosis in the Elderly
The aim of the present study was to evaluate sclerotic lesions of the common carotid artery by ultrasonography in 921 in-patients aged 65 years and older (77 +/- 7 years) and investigate whether lipid levels were associated with carotid atherosclerosis.

Genetic variants in lipid metabolism are independently associated with multiple features of the metabolic syndrome [PDF]
Background Our objective was to find single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), within transcriptional pathways of glucose and lipid metabolism, which are related to multiple features of the metabolic syndrome (MetS).

Non-HDL Cholesterol Levels in Childhood and Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Adulthood. [PDF]
Background: Elevated non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels are used to identify children at increased cardiovascular risk, but the use of non-HDL-C in childhood to predict atherosclerosis is unclear.
