This caught my ear on the news today but I cnnot access the full text in The Lancet. It follows a large cohort of Europeans and links higher non HDL cholesterol to higher rates of stroke or heart disease/heart attack.
It then draws an implication that reducing non HDL cholesterol in those over 25 before they exhibit signs of disease would reduce event rates.
Appear to be funded by the EU rather than Pzizer however my choleserol sceptic bias is pushing me not to want to believe that there is a causal relationship between CVD and higher LDL.
Any thoughts open minded forum people ? Is the high LDL a marker or a maker and can this study answer that question ?
