Nonfasting triglyceride levels may replace fasting levels in assessing cardiovascular
disease risk once standard reference values have been developed. Several atherogenic
lipoprotein subfractions can be measured by including apolipoprotein B in addition to
HDL,(nonfasting) triglycerides and LDL cholesterol.
