Short lecture by Aaron Hartman, MD on atherosclerosis as an apolipoprotein B (ApoB)-mediated disease and the importance of measuring lipoprotein (LP) particle concentration in molar units. The speaker recommends reporting LP in nanomoles per liter and states suggested risk thresholds: ~50 nmol/L for entering LP-mediated risk and ~125 nmol/L for markedly elevated risk.
Questions this video answers
