A Modified Sampson-NIH Equation with Improved Accuracy for Estimating Low Levels of Low-Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol
Clin Chem. 2025 Jul 9:hvaf073. doi: 10.1093/clinchem/hvaf073. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular guidelines have long recommended low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) as the primary target for lipid-lowering therapy.

METHODS: Using lipid panel test … Read more
