Well, no, we *really* don't know :-) but the point is to get a good estimate.
The MESA study claims that the LDL size doesn't matter. Of course it's only one (though a large) study and it didn't have hard endpoints, but it's evidence.
I agree that high trigs and low HDL would be pretty nasty to have, but my situation is different and I'm rather curious about the proper interpretation of it... |
