“Cardiorisk” extended profile
The Cardiorisk Advanced profile includes the following analyses:
- Triglycerides
- Total cholesterol
- HDL-cholesterol
- LDL-cholesterol
- Apolipoprotein A1
- Apolipoprotein B
- Glucose
- C-reactive protein Cardio (highly sensitive)
- Atherogenicity index
- Troponin-I
- Lipoprotein (a)
The profile shows the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and the severity of existing pathologies.
There are 3 variants of the profile: standard, full and extended.
"Standard" means examination of the most common indicators, which are usually prescribed in polyclinics. The profile provides a minimum of diagnostic information and is suitable for patients with no obvious cardiac problems, but who are at risk (age, bad habits, aggravated heredity)
- Triglycerides - fats involved in the development of atherosclerosis.
- Total cholesterol is a structural component of many cells in the body. Excess cholesterol leads to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. Cholesterol can be divided into 2 types: "useful" - HDL and "harmful" - LDL is a type of cholesterol that forms atherosclerotic plaques. HDL - a type of cholesterol that has anti-atherogenic properties.
- Atherogenicity index (free) - the degree of risk of developing atherosclerosis. Glucose - excess glucose in the blood may indicate (not always) the presence of diabetes mellitus "Complete"
- Apolipoprotein A1 - a substance that is necessary to prevent the development of atherosclerosis
- Apolipoprotein B - a substance that promotes the accumulation of cholesterol in the body.
- C-reactive protein Cardio - shows the severity of atherosclerosis.
