[QUOTE="IncogKeto, post: 2677662, member: 556471"] You need to bear in mind that the conversion factor when moving from mmol/L to mg/dL is different for Triglycerides as it is for HDL and LDL. See how there are separate sections in the omnicalculator: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.omnicalculator.com/health/cholesterol-units[/URL] If you’ve arrived at a ratio of one by using mmol/L but are then using reference ranges that were arrived at using mg/dL then you’re going to come a cropper. [I appreciate that anyone would think that the ratio would be unit agnostic, but don’t shoot the messenger.] Carefully read this screenshot. I entered the values 1.4mmol/L in the lower part and it autofilled the upper part. [ATTACH alt="IMG_0562.png"]65992[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
