Abstract:
We developed the algorithm for computer assisted evaluation of lipid tests with regard to the risk of atherosclerosis. This programme has been created as a part of the laboratory information system and is determined to estimate the metabolic risk of coronary artery disease in both screening programmes and lipid clinics. The programme has made an important contribution to diagnostic and therapeutic process of atherosclerosis and hyperlipoproteinemia. It contains evaluation of special indexes, as e.g. HDL-cholesterol/total cholesterol, apolipoprotein A-I/B.
