This is interesting because low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is conventionally known as the "bad cholesterol".
But it's all relative to your situation.
Exactly
This kind of hazard ratio is highly clinically significant:
lipidworld.biomedcentral.co...
"multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio for all-cause mortality was 2.54 for those with LDL-C levels below 70 mg/dL,"
Cholesterol has been given a bum rap. It is not the eggs, it is the fried bacon. See my writing here:
A Tale Of Two Studies Leads To A Deeper Understanding Of Cardiovascular Disease
Survival vs LDL. Numbers on right are Hazard Ratio
“Lower LDL-C levels, gender (male), older age, BMI under 18.5 kg/m2 and the presence of diabetes were significant predictors for all-cause mortality.”So it’s the diabetes causing the mortality rather than the low ldl-c?
