Apolipoprotein B/A‐I and total cholesterol/high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol ratios both predict cardiovascular events in the general population independently of nonlipid risk factors, albuminuria and C‐reactive protein

TL;DR: Apolipoprotein B/A‐I and total cholesterol/high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol ratios both predict cardiovascular events in the general population independently of nonlipid risk factors, albuminuria and C‐reactive protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased LCAT activity and hyperglycaemia decrease the antioxidative functionality of HDL.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated whether the antioxidative functionality of HDL is altered in type 2 diabetes mellitus and aimed to identify potential determinants of this parameter, including hyperglycaemia, increased LCAT activity and lower PON-1 activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The plasma leptin/adiponectin ratio predicts first cardiovascular event in men: A prospective nested case-control study

TL;DR: This study suggests that the L/A ratio may be a preferential marker of a first cardiovascular event in men compared to plasma leptin and adiponectin levels alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lower serum paraoxonase-1 activity is related to higher serum amyloid a levels in metabolic syndrome.

TL;DR: It is suggested that higher SAA levels contribute to impaired HDL anti-oxidative function in MetS via an effect on PON-1 regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein Inhibition in Cardiovascular Risk Management: Ongoing Trials will End the Confusion

TL;DR: Serious concerns remain about the validity of the concept that HDL cholesterol raising by means of CETP inhibition is a viable strategy, and results of ongoing clinical trials with these drugs will have to be awaited before making up the balance between possible benefits and harms related to pharmacological CETP inhibitor.
