Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally according to the World Health Organization. The most important biomarkers for determining CVD risk are lipids, including total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and HDL cholesterol. Studies show standard lipid profile tests do not capture all available information, whereas the AXINON® LDLp Test System measures the concentration, size and distribution of lipoprotein particles (LDL-p) – the particles that carry cholesterol – to provide a more accurate result, especially for people with comorbidities who are at higher risk for CVDs.
