very low density lipoprotein-cholesterol

Very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is mainly synthesized by the liver, and its important function is to transport endogenously synthesized triacylglycerol. Its degradation is affected by factors such as diet, intestinal liver tissue, and capillary adrenaline. These lipoproteins are relatively small in carrying cholesterol, and their particles are relatively large and do not penetrate the inner lining of the blood vessels. Therefore, normal very low-density lipoproteins do not cause arteriosclerosis, and are not coronary heart disease like chylomicrons. The main risk factor is that LDL produced by very low density lipoprotein metabolism has an arteriosclerosis effect. Basic Information Specialist classification: cardiovascular examination classification: biochemical examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: Abnormal liver function. Normal value: Very low density lipoprotein-cholesterol: 0.08-0.41mmol/L Above normal: Familial type IV hyperlipoproteinemia, diabetes, pancreatitis, uremia, nephrotic syndrome, nephritis, pregnancy, taking birth control pills, estrogen, progesterone, alcohol, obesity. negative: Positive: Tips: drinking alcohol, obesity, taking estrogen, progesterone, contraceptives, etc., can increase very low density lipoprotein cholesterol. Normal value The electrophoresis method was 0.08 to 0.41 mmol/L. Clinical significance 1, elevated: familial type IV hyperlipoproteinemia, diabetes, pancreatitis, uremia, nephrotic syndrome, nephritis, pregnancy, taking birth control pills, estrogen, progesterone, drinking, obesity. 2, lower: abnormal liver function. High results may be diseases: precautions for hyperlipoproteinemia Alcohol, obesity, taking estrogen, progesterone, contraceptives, etc., can raise very low density lipoprotein cholesterol. Inspection process Reportable range: The reportable range of this test is 0.026 to 10.3 mmol/L (1 to 4000 mg/dl). Beyond this range, re-measure using saline dilution and multiply the result by the dilution factor. Not suitable for the crowd There are no special taboos. Adverse reactions and risks There are no related complications and hazards.
