How to think about preventing cardiovascular disease

Well SupportedApolipoprotein B (ApoB) measurement captures total atherogenic burden, including high VLDL, which can be missed by LDL particle number or LDL cholesterol measurements.

Partially SupportedReducing inflammation through improvements in nutrition, sleep, and exercise can lower cardiovascular disease risk.

Partially SupportedSmoking, high blood pressure, and metabolic conditions associated with insulin resistance aggravate and weaken the endothelium, making it more vulnerable to apob particle penetration.

Partially SupportedHigher inflammation levels increase the likelihood of apob particles entering the endothelial space.
