- WHATS NEW?
- Suppression of chemokines by HDL
- HDL cholesterol linked to oestrogen levels
- New gene loci regulating HDL cholesterol identified
- Abnormal lipids when young predicts atherosclerosis in later life

Should measurement of ApoB/ApoA1 ratio be incorporated into clinical guidelines?
The ratio of apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A-I (i.e., atherogenic to
atheroprotective lipoproteins) was the strongest predictor of
cardiovascular risk, according to pooled analyses of two recent major
statin studies, presented at the American Heart Association Scientific
Sessions.
