A recent cross-sectional study found that over 33% of adults in the United States had hypertriglyceridemia (serum triglyceride levels over 150 mg/dl (1.7 mmol/L)) of whom over 50% had serum ...

Post hoc analyses demonstrated that the increase in LDL-C was limited to subjects in the bottom tertile for LDL-C during the simvastatin lead-in (≤2.1 mmol/l or 80 mg/dl), while the top two ...

According to the Mayo Clinic, the results indicate: Less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is normal. 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L) is diagnosed as prediabetes. 126 mg/dL (7.0 mmol/L) or higher on ...

Values in mg/dL can be converted to mmol/L by dividing by 18.0 g/dmol (that is the molar mass of glucose).

As for how they defined “low,” the researchers found a reduced dementia risk when LDL cholesterol levels were under 1.8 mmol/L (that’s less than 70 mg/dL). For context, the American Heart Association ...

To refine the findings further, the researchers focused on 595 participants who had normal glucose tolerance, establishing ...
