Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (S-LDL-C) has been suggested as a particularly atherogenic factor for ischemic stroke (IS) in observational studies, but the causality regarding the etiological subtype remains unclear. This study aims to explore the causal effects of small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (S-LDL-C), medium (M-LDL-C) and large (L-LDL-C) subfractions on the lifetime...
