Does the serum LDL-C/HDL-C ratio correlate with increased carotid IMT and plaque in the Chinese general population?
The LDL-C/HDL-C ratio and combined LDL-C/HDL-C levels are useful biomarkers for predicting increased carotid IMT and plaque in the Chinese general population.
Serum LDL-C/HDL-C ratio represents as an independent index associated with increased carotid IMT and LDL-C combined with HDL-C levels may be useful markers for predicting the presence of carotid plaque in the Chinese general population.
