Does cholesteryl ester transfer protein promote the formation of cholesterol-rich remnant like lipoprotein particles in human plasma?
CETP promotes the formation of cholesterol-rich RLP through the transfer of CE from HDL to TRL and CETP inhibitors are useful to reduce RLP-C.
The approach modification was straightforward to implement in all patients and did not compromise acetabular fragment mobilization or final positioning. Two of the three key variables that the approach might have influenced-pain and length of stay-were below the minimum clinically important difference and different by only a fraction of a day, respectively. The difference in ambulation was of only modest clinical importance. More definitive evidence for clinical superiority in terms of pain, ambulation, and return of muscle function will likely require more sophisticated instruments such as gait analysis, muscle strength testing, and longer-term outcome studies with sensitive instruments.
