2. Lipid profile - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipid_profile

   A lipid profile or lipid panel is a panel of blood tests used to find abnormalities in blood lipid ( such as cholesterol and triglycerides) concentrations. [not verified in body] The results of this test can identify certain genetic diseases and can determine approximate risks for cardiovascular disease, certain forms of pancreatitis, and other diseases.

3. Cholesterol-dependent cytolysin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholesterol-dependent...

   Since high cholesterol concentrations are required for CDC binding/pore-formation, it was thought that CDC would associate with lipid rafts. A later study showed that sphingomyelin , a necessary component of lipid raft formation, inhibited rather than promoted the binding of perfringolysin O to the target membrane.

4. Liver function tests - Wikipedia

   Although example reference ranges are given, these will vary depending on method of analysis used at the administering laboratory, as well as age, gender, ethnicity, and potentially unrelated health factors. Individual results should always be interpreted using the reference range provided by the laboratory that performed the test. [7]

5. Vertical auto profile - Wikipedia

   Studies report that this comprehensive test is able to identify more than twice the number of patients with lipid abnormalities than the standard lipid panel (cholesterol and triglyceride test). The VAP test directly measures and routinely reports all five lipoprotein classes and sub-classes, including LDL, HDL, intermediate-density lipoprotein ...

6. Low-density lipoprotein - Wikipedia

   Some evidence suggests the correlation between Pattern B and coronary heart disease is stronger than the correspondence between the LDL number measured in the standard lipid profile test. Tests to measure these LDL subtype patterns have been more expensive and not widely available, so the common lipid profile test is used more often. [15]

7. Blood lipids - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_lipids

   Lipid and lipoprotein abnormalities are extremely common in the general population, and are regarded as a highly modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In addition, some forms may predispose to acute pancreatitis. One of the most clinically relevant lipid substances is cholesterol, especially on atherosclerosis and cardiovascular ...
