Reliability of different formulas for estimating plasma Apolipoprotein B levels in a large cohort of South European individuals
Some simple formulas based on low-cost and widely available parameters can estimate ApoB levels independently of ApoB, non-HDL-C, and Lp(a) plasma levels. This approach may be particularly useful for estimating ApoB levels in low-resource settings.
