Your ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) level is in the normal range. ApoB is considered one of the best measures of cardiovascular risk because each LDL, VLDL, and IDL particle carries exactly one ApoB protein.
Very low ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) indicates the liver is very impaired in producing cholesterol-carrying particles, or there is very large malnutrition. Abetalipoproteinemia (a rare genetic condition) is another cause.
Seek urgent medical evaluation for liver disease or malabsorption.
ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles): {{value}} {{unit}} — very low (ref: {{low}}–{{high}})Low ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) means there are fewer cholesterol-carrying particles in your blood that can deposit plaque in arteries. This is generally protective, but very low values without an obvious healthy explanation warrant investigation.
Generally a good finding. Discuss with your doctor if unexpectedly low.
ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles): {{value}} {{unit}} — below reference range (ref: {{low}}–{{high}})Low-normal ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) reflects a modest number of artery-damaging lipid particles in the blood, associated with lower cardiovascular risk.
No action needed. Favorable result.
ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles): {{value}} {{unit}} — borderline lowYour ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) level is in the normal range. ApoB is considered one of the best measures of cardiovascular risk because each LDL, VLDL, and IDL particle carries exactly one ApoB protein.
No action needed. Maintain a heart-healthy lifestyle.
ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles): {{value}} {{unit}} — within reference rangeApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) below 90 mg/dL is optimal for cardiovascular health. This means you have a low number of artery-damaging cholesterol particles circulating in your blood.
Excellent result. This is one of the most accurate cardiovascular risk markers, and your level is ideal.
ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles): {{value}} {{unit}} — optimal (<90 mg/dL)A borderline high ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) means more artery-damaging particles than optimal are circulating in your blood. Over time, this accelerates the slow buildup of plaque inside arteries even if LDL appears acceptable.
Reduce saturated fat and refined carbohydrates. Increase exercise. Discuss with your doctor whether your overall cardiovascular risk profile warrants more aggressive management.
ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles): {{value}} {{unit}} — borderline high (90–130 mg/dL)High ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) indicates an excess of artery-damaging cholesterol-carrying particles. Some research shows ApoB predicts cardiovascular risk more accurately than LDL alone, especially when LDL appears borderline.
See your doctor for cardiovascular risk assessment. Lifestyle changes and potentially statin therapy should be discussed. ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) reduction is a key treatment goal in modern cardiology.
ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles): {{value}} {{unit}} — above reference range (>130 mg/dL)Very high ApoB (the protein that carries bad cholesterol particles) indicates an very large burden of artery-damaging particles — most likely in familial hypercholesterolemia or uncontrolled metabolic syndrome. This represents a very high risk for early cardiovascular disease.
Seek urgent medical evaluation. Aggressive lipid-lowering therapy is needed. Familial hypercholesterolemia screening should be considered.
