Cholesterol and the risk of grade-specific prostate cancer incidence: evidence from two large prospective cohort studies with up to 37 years' follow up [PDF]
<b>Background</b> High cholesterol may be a modifiable risk factor for prostate cancer but results have been inconsistent and subject to potential "reverse causality" where undetected disease modifies cholesterol prior to diagnosis.<p ...

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

Prediction of cholesterol ratios within a Korean population [PDF]
Cholesterol ratios (total cholesterol (TC)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) and triglyceride (TG)/HDL-c) have been suggested as better indicators to predict various clinical features such as insulin resistance and heart disease. Therefore, we
