HDL is also a human lipoprotein & some of the metrics used to characterize it are HDL-C, HDL-TG, HDL-P, apoA-I, particle sizes, subfraction metrics like HDL2-C, large & small HDL-P, pre-beta and alpha HDLs. There is no such thing as an HDL-C particle. Review the 4 graphics below

This is false: Niacin was shown to have benefit in pre-statin era, but not in statin era. However, absence of evidence does not mean no association, as an outcomes study with niacin in which all subjects had high Lp(a) when enrolled has not been done. https://twitter.com/Lpa_Doc/status/1375879630507241472
6/20 6-true or false: Niacin lowers Lp(a) and has been shown to lower CVD events in people with elevated Lp(a) already taking statins

I strongly recommend this podcast - Always a joy to listen to Chris Packard - he and Jim Shepherd being two of my early lipid heroes (WOSCOPS). Great stuff on the emerging chylomicron story. https://twitter.com/NutritionDanny/status/1376872351661498369
It was an honour to have Prof. Chris Packard on the podcast.
He is one of *the* most important researchers in the fields of #atherosclerosis prevention/treatment and #lipoprotein metabolism.
