Title HDL Cholesterol and Large HDL Particles Not Cardioprotective When Adjusted for apoA-1 and apoB
Url http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/569760?src=rss
Description The findings, from the IDEAL and EPIC-Norfolk studies, showed that when adjusted for apoA-1 and apoB values in regression analyses, increased HDL-cholesterol levels and HDL particle size conferred a risk of major coronary events.
