🧠 Smart Lipids: ApoB and Lp(a) in the Age of Risk Recalibration
from Dr RR Baliga's "Got Knowledge Doc" Podkast · host MasterMedFacts LLC
🔬 New Insights in Lipidology! 🫀 A landmark study in European Heart Journal (2025) shows that Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) particle count is a more powerful predictor of coronary artery disease than traditional LDL cholesterol. While VLDL particles are more atherogenic per unit, LDL dominates by count — making total ApoB count + Lipoprotein(a) the gold standard for risk assessment. 🧪📊 👩⚕️👨⚕️ Time to rethink lipid panels and embrace particle-based precision. #Cardiology #Lipidology #ApoB #Lp(a) #PrecisionMedicine #HeartHealth #CVPrevention #RiskStratification #EHJ #UKBiobank #FutureOfCare ❤️
