** Metabolic syndrome ( Hyperlipidemia + HDL cholesterol level < 0. 90 mmol / L or triglyceride level > 2. 82 mmol / L ); Hypertension (> 140 / 90 mmHg ) or arteriosclerosis ;

** Low serum concentration of functioning high density lipoprotein ( HDL " protective if large and high enough " particles ), i. e., " lipoprotein subclass analysis "

** An LDL: HDL ratio greater than 3: 1

** Individualized, private, and self-administered diagnostics for multiple physical parameters such as blood sugar, urine, C-reactive proteins, HDL, and LDL, as well as home diagnostic kits that detect early signs of diabetes, heart disease, and types of cancers

** high triglyceride level ( Hypertriglyceridemia );

** triglyceride clearance

Cholesterol drugs may be used to lower LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels, if they are elevated, and to raise HDL levels if they are low.

Blood tests focusing on cholesterol levels can determine LDL and HDL cholesterol levels, as well as triglyceride levels.

Although less effective in lowering LDL, fibrates improve HDL and triglyceride levels by increasing HDL levels and decreasing triglyceride levels, and seem to improve insulin resistance when the dyslipidemia is associated with other features of the metabolic syndrome ( hypertension and diabetes mellitus type 2 ).

Once triglyceride stores are distributed, the chylomicron returns APOC2 to the HDL ( but keeps APOE ), and, thus, becomes a chylomicron remnant, now only 30 – 50 nm.

In medicine, combined hyperlipidemia ( or-aemia ) ( also known as " Multiple-type hyperlipoproteinemia ") is a commonly occurring form of hypercholesterolemia ( elevated cholesterol levels ) characterised by increased LDL and triglyceride concentrations, often accompanied by decreased HDL.

A meta-analysis of 14 randomized, controlled trials comparing plant sterols to plant stanols directly at doses of 0. 6 to 2. 5 g / day showed no difference between the two forms on total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, or triglyceride levels.
