LDL Particle size, HDL 1,2,3…, Apo A – B – E, Lipoprotein (a), Fredrickson phenotypes, NMR, VAP and more. In this CE we will break down each of these factors and more as to their testing, meaning, and other things that may aggravate them beyond diet and genomics.
Objectives:
⭑ Define the biochemical particles assessed in modern lipidology
⭑ Describe the function of each
⭑ Differentiate between Fredrickson’s phenotyping (lipoprotein electrophoresis) and NMR
⭑ Describe risks associated with common patterns
⭑ Describe serial testing strategies
⭑ Discuss relevant pharmacology
⭑ Discuss non-pharmacological interventions
