NOTE

Understand Vascular Health Through Comprehensive Biomarkers

Assessing vascular health requires a thorough analysis of multiple biomarkers including high sensitivity CRP, homocysteine, oxidized LDL, myeloperoxidase, lipoprotein phospholipase A2, parathyroid hormone D3, and insulin glucose hemoglobin A1C, especially for diabetics. A complete lipid panel should be paired with evaluations of ApoB and apoA1, alongside thyroid panel, cortisol, DHEAS, and sex steroids. This multi-faceted approach provides insights into the vascular condition, revealing potential issues such as oxidative stress from elevated homocysteine, inflammatory responses indicated by CRP levels, and cardiovascular stress suggested by oxidized LDL levels. Each biomarker serves a distinct purpose in understanding overall vascular health and related complications.
