Patient-Level Discordance in Population Percentiles of the TC/HDL-C Ratio Compared with LDL-C and Non-HDL-C: The Very Large Database of Lipids Study (VLDL-2B)

摘要

BackgroundThe total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TC/HDL-C) ratio, estimated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and non-HDL-C are routinely available from the standard lipid profile. We aimed to assess the extent of patient-level discordance of TC/HDL-C with LDL-C and non-HDL-C because discordance suggests the possibility of additional information.
