Listen "Quantifying triglyceride-rich lipoprotein atherogenicity, associations with inflammation, and implications for risk assessment using non-HDL cholesterol"
Episode Synopsis
In this insightful discussion from the October 1, 2024 issue of JACC, researchers reveal that triglyceride-rich lipoprotein (TRL) remnants are significantly more atherogenic than LDL cholesterol, suggesting a need for updated risk assessment strategies. The study advocates for a shift towards evaluating lipoproteins on a per-particle basis, which could revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders by focusing on the functional activity of these particles.
