{"product_id":"oxidised-ldl-4029","title":"Oxidised LDL","description":"\u003cp\u003eCardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. In the past decade CVD has been the cause of over one-third of all premature deaths in Australia. LDL particles are heterogeneous with varying density, size, charge and composition. Small dense LDL particles are especially atherogenic and have been linked to an increased risk for coronary artery disease (CAD). These particles penetrate the arterial wall more easily and readily bind with intimal proteoglycans, which may further increase the susceptibility of the lipoprotein to oxidation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NutriPATH Oxidised LDL test is an advanced biomarker for coronary artery disease. This test measures levels of oxidised low density lipoproteins using a highly sensitive and specific analyses. This test is Low density lipoproteins (LDL), the major carrier of circulating cholesterol, are very susceptible to oxidation. It is seen that elevated oxidised LDL is associated with accelerated atherogenesis, CAD, acute myocardial infarction, stable and unstable angina and metabolic syndrome. This assessment can either be orders as an individual marker or as a combination with LDL subfractions test code 4031.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTest details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTest code:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4029\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cardiovascular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e SST Serum (Fasting)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection method:\u003c\/strong\u003e CI05.28.01\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTest method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automated chemistry (Roche Diagnostics), Electropheresis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurnaround time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7-10 Business Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is measured\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul class=\"analytes\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eOxidised LDL\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon clinical applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Other-Health-Conditions.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOther Health Conditions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCoronary artery disease\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFamily history of heart disease\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMetabolic syndrome\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOxidative Stress\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Cardiovascular-Health.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCardiovascular Health\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeart Attack\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh Cholesterol\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Metabolic-Endocrine-and-Hormonal-Health.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEndocrine and Hormonal Health\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eType 2 Diabetes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eResources\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/4029-OXIDISED-LDL-1.pdf\"\u003ePatient Brochure\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/4029-Oxidised-LDL.pdf\"\u003eSample Report\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis test should be ordered and interpreted with guidance from a qualified healthcare practitioner.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Test information is general only.
