Clinical, biochemical profile and atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk score (ASCVD) in patients with high HDL cholesterol
Patients with high HDL cholesterol were found to be physically more active, had a lower BMI, a lower triglyceride level, and a lower ASCVD risk compared with controls. They also had a lower CETP level. Further research will be required to determine the normal CETP level in Indian population, their genetic makeup, and whether it has a role in cardiovascular protection.
