Total cholesterol and mortality in peritoneal dialysis: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Nephrology, 2023
Background Total cholesterol is inversely associated with mortality in dialysis patients, which seems implausible in real-world clinical practice. May there be an optimal range of total cholesterol associated with a lower mortality risk?

Appropriate Total cholesterol cut-offs for detection of abnormal LDL cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol among low cardiovascular risk population

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2019
Background Current guidelines suggest screening for dyslipidemia in early adulthood. In Thailand, a screening total cholesterol level is most commonly used potentially due to the costs of the test.

Yale - Total Cholesterol v1 [PDF]

, 2019
Summary: Procedure used to determine the total concentration of cholesterol present in blood, serum, and plasma. Cholesterol esters are hydrolysed by cholesterol esterase. Cholesterol is then oxidized by cholesterol oxidase with formation of hydrogen peroxide.

Dual HDL/total Cholesterol Test: A Single-Tube, Homogeneous Assay for Sequential Measurement of HDL Cholesterol and Total Cholesterol [PDF]

Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2000
The quantitation of cholesterol in lipoprotein subfractions is valuable in estimating the risk for coronary artery disease, but requires multiple tests. We describe a relatively simple procedure, referred to as the dual HDL/total cholesterol (DHT) assay, which allows the sequential measurement of HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) and total cholesterol (total-C)

Effect of a novel nutraceutical combination on serum lipoprotein functional profile and circulating PCSK9 [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: A beneficial effect on cardiovascular risk may be obtained by improving lipid-related serum lipoprotein functions such as high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) and serum cholesterol loading capacity (CLC) and by ...

Serum Lipids and Long-Term Antiepileptic Therapy

Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 1995
Serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), very LDL-C, and triglycerides (TGs) were determined in 119 children with epilepsy treated with AEDs for 7 months to 10 ...

Effects of Diet Composition and Insulin Resistance Status on Plasma Lipid Levels in a Weight Loss Intervention in Women. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundOptimal macronutrient distribution of weight loss diets has not been established. The distribution of energy from carbohydrate and fat has been observed to promote differential plasma lipid responses in previous weight loss studies, and insulin

Pasta consumption and connected dietary habits: Associations with glucose control, adiposity measures, and cardiovascular risk factors in people with type 2 diabetes—TOSCA.IT study [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Pasta is a refined carbohydrate with a low glycemic index. Whether pasta shares the metabolic advantages of other low glycemic index foods has not really been investigated. The aim of this study is to document, in people with type-2 diabetes,
