LCAT, HDL cholesterol and ischemic cardiovascular disease: a Mendelian randomization study of HDL cholesterol in 54,500 individuals

…, BG Nordestgaard, R Frikke-Schmidt - The Journal of …, 2012 - academic.oup.com
Background: Epidemiologically, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels associate
inversely with risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease. Whether this is a causal relation is …

[HTML][HTML] Plasma HDL cholesterol and risk of myocardial infarction: a mendelian randomisation study

…, GM Peloso, M Orho-Melander, R Frikke-Schmidt… - The Lancet, 2012 - thelancet.com
Background High plasma HDL cholesterol is associated with reduced risk of myocardial
infarction, but whether this association is causal is unclear. Exploiting the fact that genotypes are …

[HTML][HTML] Loss-of-Function Mutations in APOC3 and Risk of Ischemic Vascular Disease

AB Jørgensen, R Frikke-Schmidt… - … England Journal of …, 2014 - Mass Medical Soc
Background High plasma levels of nonfasting triglycerides are associated with an increased
risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease. Whether lifelong low levels of nonfasting …

Height is a highly heritable, classic polygenic trait with approximately 700 common associated
variants identified through genome-wide association studies so far. Here, we report 83 …

[HTML][HTML] Modeling of waning immunity after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and influencing factors

…, MAH Larsen, SR Ostrowski, R Frikke-Schmidt… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are crucial in controlling COVID-19, but knowledge of which factors
determine waning immunity is limited. We examined antibody levels and T-cell gamma-…

Remnant cholesterol as a causal risk factor for ischemic heart disease

…, AB Jørgensen, R Frikke-Schmidt… - Journal of the American …, 2013 - jacc.org
Objectives : The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that elevated nonfasting remnant
cholesterol is a causal risk factor for ischemic heart disease independent of reduced high-…

Association of loss-of-function mutations in the ABCA1 gene with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and risk of ischemic heart disease

R Frikke-Schmidt, BG Nordestgaard, MCA Stene… - Jama, 2008 - jamanetwork.com
Context Low levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are inversely related to
cardiovascular risk. Whether this is a causal effect is unclear. Objective To determine whether …

Genetically elevated non-fasting triglycerides and calculated remnant cholesterol as causal risk factors for myocardial infarction

AB Jørgensen, R Frikke-Schmidt, AS West… - European heart …, 2013 - academic.oup.com
Aims Elevated non-fasting triglycerides mark elevated levels of remnant cholesterol. Using
