Comparison of Performance of Various Calculated Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Methods in the Indian Population: A Hospital-Based Study.

Introduction: In recent times, there has been a surge in proposed alternative approaches to computing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), with a focus on enhancing precision, particularly within diverse demographic and clinical groups. Our aim is to assess the agreement, precision, and practicality of these methods compared to direct LDL-C measurements, with the goal of identifying the most effective approach for estimating LDL-C in the Indian context.

Methods: It is a retrospective analytical study.
