edition.cnn.com — Blood cholesterol is a risk factor for coronary artery disease and heart attack, so reducing your risk of high cholesterol is a worthy goal. However, the next time you brag that your cholesterol is nice and low -- or lament that your number is in the mid-200s -- know this: "Your total cholesterol is a pretty meaningless number," says Maureen Mays, M.D., a preventive cardiologist and lipid specialist at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland. "Not only does the general public not know this, some doctors don't either." Here's why "the number" is so misleading. Total cholesterol is calculated by adding LDL (bad cholesterol), HDL (good cholesterol), and one-fifth of your triglyceride total. "We have been using this formula of adding a bad thing to a good thing and factoring in one-fifth of a bad thing, and it's not useful," Dr. Mays says. read more...

nlm.nih.gov — MONDAY, June 30 (HealthDay News) -- A new study suggests an association between low levels of "good" HDL cholesterol and loss of memory. The study, which has followed thousands of British civil servants for decades, found a 27 percent increased loss of memory on a word test for those at age 55 with the lowest HDL levels, compared to those with the highest levels. By age 60, the rate of memory loss had increased to 53 percent, the study found. "Our results show HDL cholesterol to be important for memory," study author Archana Singh-Manoux said in a prepared statement. "Thus, physicians and patients should be encouraged to monitor levels of HDL cholesterol." The findings of the study, funded in part by the U.S. government, are published in the July 1 issue of Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology. The researchers measured HDL cholesterol levels and gave short-term verbal memory tests to 3,673 participants, one quarter of them women, between 1995 and 1997 and again between 2002 and 2004. Participants whose HDL levels decreased during the five years between tests had a 61 percent increased risk of declining ability to remember words, the study found. read more...

cnn.com — Blood cholesterol is a risk factor for coronary artery disease and heart attack, so reducing your risk of high cholesterol is a worthy goal. A smarter way of looking at cholesterol risk is by component. However, the next time you brag that your cholesterol is nice and low -- or lament that your number is in the mid-200s -- know this: "Your total cholesterol is a pretty meaningless number," says Maureen Mays, M.D., a preventive cardiologist and lipid specialist at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland.

health.nytimes.com — Last December, a routine nonfasting blood test revealed that my total cholesterol level, which had long wavered between 190 and 205 milligrams per deciliter of blood serum, was now 222 and flagged as “high” by the laboratory’s computer. A heart-healthy reading should be under 200. The HDLs, the so-called good cholesterol that protects against heart disease, were also high at 69, so that was good. My triglycerides, at 95, were well within the normal range of zero to 149. The VLDLs, also a potentially harmful form, measured 19, again within the normal range of 5 to 49. read more...
