Potential clinical utility of advanced lipid testing in certain subgroups

• Diagnosing certain dyslipidemias (eg. familial dysbetalipoproteinemia or Type III)

• Individuals whose LDL-C level is discordant (inconsistent) with LDL particle measures (eg. ApoB, LDL-P)– LDL-C low but ApoB or LDL-P high– LDL-C high but ApoB or LDL-P low

Controversy over the importance of LDL size as independent risk factor

Adjustment for other risk factors (TG, HDL) attenuated the association of LDL size to non-significant in most studies

Physicians Health Study nested case-control

Quebec Cardiovascular Study

"Among lipid, lipoprotein, and apolipoprotein variables, apo B came out as the best and only significant predictor of CHD risk in multivariate stepwise logistic analyses (P=.002).”

“[LDL size] as a continuous variable did not contribute to the risk of CHD after the contribution of apo B levels to CHD risk had been considered."

Lamarche et al Circulation 1997; 95:69-75

Most previous studies examined LDL size phenotype by GGE

Limitation of gradient gel electrophoresis(GGE): Decrease in average LDL size does not necessarily translate into greater number of small LDL particles, since it could also be due to fewer large LDL particles
