Martin et al proposed a new equation for estimating LDL cholesterol. The authors are from the Johns Hopkins University, CGH Medical Center and the University of Illinois.
Parameters:
(1) serum total cholesterol in mg/dL
(2) serum HDL cholesterol in mg/dL
(3) serum triglycerides in mg/dL
LDL cholesterol in mg/dL =
= (total cholesterol) - (HDL cholesterol) - ((triglyceride) / (factor))
