Distinctive features of lipoprotein profiles in stroke patients.

ABSTRACT: Classes of lipoproteins solubilize lipids in the blood, and their profiles are important for preventing atherosclerotic diseases. These can be identified by gel filtration HPLC, which has been analyzed in a manner that yields the same values as the de facto standard method, i.e., ultracentrifugation; however, previous studies have found that ultracentrifugation and its simplified alternatives, enzymatic methods, yield incorrect values. Here HPLC data of stroke patients and the controls were compared using data-driven analyses, without consideration for ultracentrifugation. The data well-separated patients from controls. In many patients, the level of HDL1 (a cholesterol scavenger) was low. The TG/cholesterol ratio of chylomicrons was found to be low in patients and high in the healthy elde
