Report: Contact us to know the TAT.
Usage: Lipid Association of India (2020) recommends measuring Apolipoprotein B with a routine lipid profile especially under the following conditions: To assess ASCVD risk in patients with Diabetes/Metabolic Syndrome/Obesity/High Triglyceride or very low LDL-C concentration; In low and Moderate ASCVD risk group, Apo B is a moderate non-conventional risk factor; In high ASCVD risk subjects, after LDL-C and Non-HDL-C goals have been achieved. Discordant elevated Apo B levels may identify individuals who have high residual cholesterol risk. This may warrant intensive statin therapy and the use of non-statin drugs; For the diagnosis of Type III hyperlipoproteinemia.
