Remnant cholesterol might be a more valuable metric for all-cause mortality than LDL-C alone.

“will the remnant cholesterol that I get from that subtraction will that actually be more relevant to all cause mortality than say LDL see I don't know but it would certainly rival it”

“that just tells me the sum of cholesterol in all of my VLDL remnants it tells me nothing about the pathology of them it tells me nothing about what they've done or where they're going”

“we can't it's impossible we have no way of knowing remnant cholesterol”

“what is hardly known out there is two april-b particles can exchange their lipids VLDL can exchange with its core lipids with an LDL and i'm gonna tell you that's where remnants get a lot of their cholesterol so that would be homotypic exchange of cholesterol and triglycerides between two different april-b containing particles”

“you can take non HDL cholesterol and subtract LDL cholesterol from it and you'll get that you'll get an estimate as well”

“particle for particle remnants carry five to six to seven times more cholesterol per particle then an apob LL particle”
