Is remnant cholesterol associated with intra-pancreatic fat deposition in people at high risk for cardiovascular diseases?
Remnant cholesterol, rather than LDL-C, is associated with intra-pancreatic fat deposition, suggesting a potential new target for improving outcomes in high-risk cardiovascular patients with normal LDL-C.
Components of the lipid panel have different associations with IPFD. This may open up new opportunities for improving outcomes in people at high risk for cardiovascular diseases (who have normal low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) by reducing IPFD.
