Abstract

BACKGROUND: We applied a diagnostic algorithm using apolipoprotein B (apoB) in combination with triglycerides (TG) and total cholesterol to determine the prevalence of dyslipoproteinemias in the general population. We also characterized the overall cardiovascular (CV) risk profiles, including arterial structure and function as measured with a panel of noninvasive parameters. DESIGN: Clinical and biochemical characteristics and noninvasive measurements of atherosclerosis (NIMA) were determined in 1517 individuals, aged 50-70 years. RESULTS: In general, all dyslipoproteinemias were characterized by a worse CV risk profile and deteriorated outcomes of NIMA compared to those with normal apolipoprotein B (
