An inverse relationship between the concentration of high density lipoprotein (HDL)
cholesterol and the development of coronary heart disease (CHD) is well established. It is …

There is unequivocal evidence of an inverse association between plasma high-density
lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentrations and the risk of cardiovascular disease, a …

The concentration of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) has been found
consistently to be a powerful negative predictor of premature coronary heart disease (CHD) …

Observational studies provide overwhelming evidence that a low high-density lipoprotein
(HDL)–cholesterol level increases the risk of coronary events, both in healthy subjects and …

The epidemiologic evidence linking high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels with coronary
artery disease (CAD) is persuasive. Case-control studies have shown CAD patients to have …

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles transport (among other molecules) cholesterol (HDL-
C). In epidemiological studies, plasma HDL-C levels have an inverse relationship to the risk …

Clinical data show that a 1% increase in serum concentrations of high-density lipoprotein
cholesterol (HDL-C) can decrease cardiovascular risk by 2% to 3%. Therefore, mechanisms …

Low high‐density lipoprotein (HDL)‐cholesterol levels are associated with an increased risk
of coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction, which has triggered the …

High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are strongly related to risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular
disease. Low levels of HDL cholesterol are a major cardiovascular risk factor, and …

Several prospective epidemiological studies have shown that there is a clear inverse
relationship between serum high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations …
