Abstract Aims Our study addressed potential associations between fatty liver and small, dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sd-LDL-C) levels using a cross-sectional analysis. Methods We enrolled 476 male subjects. Serum sd-LDL-C concentrations were determined using precipitation assays. Results Subjects were divided into four groups based on triglyceride (TG) and LDL-C levels: A, TG Conclusions Fatty liver is a significant determinant of serum sd-LDL-C levels independent of the presence of obesity or hyperglycemia. Fatty liver may alter hepatic metabolism of TG and LDL-C, resulting in increased sd-LDL-C levels. |
