The role of neutrophil/high density lipoprotein, monocyte/high density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein/high density lipoprotein ratios in determining the presence and severity of asymptomatic carotid stenosis in elderly persons
INTRODUCTION[|]The importance of the lipid-related biomarkers, like neutrophil to high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) ratio (NHR), monocyte to HDL ratio (MHR) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) to HDL ratio (LHR), has been implicated in the pathological process of atherosclerosis....
