LDL cholesterol (LDL-c) is an independent risk factor for coronary vascular disease (CHD). Epidemiological studies have shown the importance of LDL-c levels for the identification of high risk patients. HDL cholesterol (HDL-c) is regarded a protecting lipid component against coronary vascular disease (CHD). Together with HDL cholesterol LDL cholesterol has a high diagnostic value to estimate the individual risk for CHD.
