Consistency of Friedewald, Martin/Hopkins and Samson formulas for LDL-C calculation in high and very high cardiovascular risk patients
Atherosclerosis(2022)
Abstract
Background and Aims : Friedewald formula is the most common used equation to calculate LDL-C levels. However, its accuracy has been questioned recently. We aimed to investigate the consistency of Friedewald (F), Martin/Hopkins (M) and Samson (S) formulas for calculated LDL-C levels, and the effect on target goal attainment for different LDL-C targets.
