Estimated small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and incident myocardial infarction in patients undergoing dialysis: a nationwide cohort study
Abstract Background Small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL-C) is an atherogenic LDL subfraction that may reflect lipid-related coronary risk beyond conventional cholesterol levels. Estimated sdLDL-C (E-sdLDL-C) is calculated from a standard lipid panel, but its prognostic relevance for myocardial infarc...
