OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to validate and optimize a machine learning algorithm for accurately predicting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels, addressing limitations of traditional formulas, particularly in hypertriglyceridemia.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL-C) is recognized for its strong atherosclerogenic potential. However, its direct measurement remains impractical in clinical settings due to its high cost, time constraints, an...
This study investigates the use of deep learning (DL) models to predict low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. The dataset obtained from New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center includes triglycerides (TG), total chole...
Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is an important factor in the development of cardiovascular disease, making its management a key aspect of cardiovascular health. While high-dose statin therapy is often recommended for LDL-C reduction, car...
INTRODUCTION: Elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) is a significant risk factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD)s. Furthermore, studies have revealed an association between indices of the complete blood c...
INTRODUCTION: Monitoring LDL-C levels is essential in clinical practice because there is a direct relation between low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and atherosclerotic heart disease risk. Therefore, measurement or estimate of LDL-C ...

BACKGROUND: Given the critical importance of Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in determining cardiovascular risk, it is essential to measure LDL-C accurately. Since the Friedewald formula generates incorrect predictions in many circ...
Objective: Compare changes in cholesterol and lipoprotein levels occurring in septic patients with and without acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and by survivorship. Methods: We reanalyzed data from prospective sepsis studies. Cholesterol an...
Previous studies revealed that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) probably has a protective effect for preventing dementia in post-menopausal women. However, the results were still controversial. The association between cholesterol levels and incident...
