With respect to ASCVD risk assessment and also as a goal of therapy: Non-HDL-C (apoB-cholesterol) is a better marker than LDL-C, but not as good a marker as is apoB (apoB = Chylo-apoB VLDL-apoB IDL-apoB LDL-apoB or Chylo-P VLDL-P IDL-P LDL-P) but 95% of those apoB particles are usually LDLs) @nationallipid @society_eas
