LDL-Subfractions in Cholesterol Control

$39.95

A New Paradigm in LDL-associated CVD significance

Cardiovascular Disease is the leading cause of death in both men and women worldwide.

Does high cholesterol mean a risk for cardiovascular diseases, heart attack, stroke?

Why is it important?

Half of myocardial infarctions occur in patients with no overt hyperlipidaemia, and 20% occur in the absence of any classic risk factor. 50% of people who suffer from coronary artery disease (CAD) have normal cholesterol levels indicates the need for a more specific diagnostic tool.

Plasma lipoprotein particles contain variable proportions of four major elements: cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids and specific proteins called apoproteins. The relationship between small dense LDL particles and an increased risk for CAD has been well established.
Evaluation of lipid sub-fractions in the role of CVD reveals key epidemiologic links to cardiovascular risk or the need for pharmaceutical statin interventions.
The anti-inflammatory or lipid-lowering effects of pharmacologic and nutritional therapies can further be elucidated with genetic polymorphisms and apo-lipoprotein markers.
