LDL particle measurement by NMR recognized by ADA, ACC
Date:3/28/2008

ncentrations of LDL particles are associated with fewer cardiovascular disease related events than equivalently low levels of LDL cholesterol; data most recently published from the Framingham Offspring study in December 2007.1

This consensus statement further demonstrates the critical role that the NMR LipoProfile test can play for the millions of people with diabetes or cardiovascular disease risk, says Rick Brajer, Chief Executive Officer and President, LipoScience, Inc. Measuring LDL particle number by NMR presents physicians and patients with the opportunity to better manage cardiometabolic risk.
