[QUOTE="xcpatr922, post: 212603, member: 43072"] The standard is not worthless. All these more detailed/advanced blood test result is usually parallel with the standard test, thing like ApoB is fraction of LDL. What's more important I believe is the ratio between HDL-C and LDL-C. Statin target is to bring down those LDL-C to be below 100 or lower than HDL if at all possible. Even lets say you have lpa issue, the treatment anyway is still the same. Doc will give you statin, but func. medicine may give you even more meds, from Niacin to folic acid to reduce homocyesteine. However folks have wrong idea just because you had statin you have reduced event which is not the same, statin is only for very long term prevention. It's blood thinner agent that reduce the actual event (from omega3 to Heparin) [/QUOTE]
