Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The size, composition, and functionality of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are potential biomarkers for predicting atherosclerosis, representing a major advance in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore HDL-C concentrations and a derived HDL functionality score (HFS), and to investigate suggestive genetic associations in a...
