Extreme high high-density lipoprotein cholesterol is paradoxically associated with high mortality in men and women: two prospective cohort studies.

TL;DR: Men and women in the general population with extreme high HDL cholesterol paradoxically have high all-cause mortality, and these findings need confirmation in other studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Worldwide Prevalence of Familial Hypercholesterolemia: Meta-Analyses of 11 Million Subjects.

TL;DR: FH prevalence in the general population was similar using genetic versus clinical diagnoses, and FH prevalence is 10-fold higher among those with IHD, 20-fold Higher among thoseWith premature IHD and 23-foldHigher among thosewith severe hypercholesterolemia.
Journal ArticleDOI

U-shaped relationship of HDL and risk of infectious disease: two prospective population-based cohort studies.

TL;DR: Low and high HDL cholesterol concentrations found in 21% and 8% of individuals were associated with higher risk of infectious disease in the general population, although these findings do not necessarily indicate causality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipoprotein(a)-Lowering by 50 mg/dL (105 nmol/L) May Be Needed to Reduce Cardiovascular Disease 20% in Secondary Prevention: A Population-Based Study.

TL;DR: In this paper, high Lp(a) (lipoprotein[a]) can cause cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a primary prevention setting; however, it is debated whether high lp (a) lead to recurrent CVD events.
Journal ArticleDOI
