Non-HDL cholesterol is better than LDL-c at predicting atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk factors clustering, even in subjects with near-to-normal triglycerides: A report from a Venezuelan population
(F1000 Research Ltd., 2018-09-20)
Background: Non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-c) has
emerged as an important tool in primary prevention of atherosclerotic
