It is well recognized that the lowering of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol can
substantially reduce coronary artery disease (CAD)–related morbidity and mortality. The …

Low levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are associated with an increased
risk of coronary artery disease events. Data in animals indicate that increasing HDL …

A complete guide to the role of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) in new and emerging
therapies With high-density lipoproteins (HDL) playing an increasing role in cardiovascular …

The clinical importance of low serum levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is
often under-recognized and underappreciated as a risk factor for premature atherosclerosis …

Epidemiologic and clinical trials show that elevated triglycerides and low levels of high-
density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are independent risk factors for coronary heart …

There is compelling evidence from human population studies that plasma levels of high-
density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol correlate inversely with cardiovascular risk …

As the significance of treating coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a high priority in
reducing morbidity and mortality worldwide, newer treatment strategies continue to evolve …

Alterations in plasma lipoproteins are major risk factors for coronary heart disease caused
by atherosclerosis. The purpose of this chapter is to provide the reader with an overview of …

This book meets the long-awaited need for a comprehensive overview of the biological role
of HDLs. Edited by one of the pioneers in HDL and cholesterol research, this monograph …

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) plays a central role in vascular biology. HDL participates in
multiple pathways that may be involved in the development of atherosclerosis and coronary …
