Abstract P195: High-density Lipoprotein Subfractions Are Associated With Low-grade Inflammation, Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome Components: The Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil)

Background: HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) can be divided into subfractions, which may have variable association with atherogenic process. There are mixed results about the association between HDL-C subfractions and risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Hypothesis: HDL-C subfractions have different associations with metabolic syndrome, low-grade inflammation and insulin resistance. Methods: 4,532 individuals between 35 and 74 years without previous...
