Fig 6 Example demonstrating the relative contributions of VLDL and IDL remnants to non-HDL cholesterol in two hypothetical patients with normal and high triglycerides, respectively. Although both patients A and B have the same total and HDL cholesterol levels, for patient A with normal triglycerides, most of the non-HDL cholesterol is LDL. However, for Patient B with high triglycerides, much of the non-HDL cholesterol is VLDL and IDL remnants. Units are in mg/dL. To convert mg/dL to mmol/L, multiply triglycerides by 0.01129 and total, LDL, HDL and non-HDL cholesterol by 0.02586. Abbreviations: VLDL, very low-density lipoproteins; IDL, intermediate density lipoproteins; LDL, low-density lipoproteins; HDL, high-density lipoproteins.
