What does a lipid panel measure?

A lipid panel typically includes total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides. These markers help estimate cardiovascular risk.

What might high LDL or triglycerides mean?

Elevations can reflect dietary patterns, metabolic factors, genetics, or medications. Discuss results with your clinician for personalized advice.

How can AI help interpret a lipid panel?

AI highlights high/low values, explains patterns (e.g., high TG + low HDL), and suggests informed questions to discuss with your clinician.

The lipid panel estimates your cardiovascular risk using cholesterol fractions and triglycerides. But numbers alone can be confusing. This page explains what each marker reflects and how AI-LabTest helps you interpret your report before discussing it with your clinician.

Important: Always compare your values to the reference ranges printed on your own report. Interpretation depends on personal history, medications, and risk factors.

What the markers mean

Marker	What it reflects
Total Cholesterol (TC)	Overall cholesterol concentration.
HDL	“Good” cholesterol involved in reverse transport.
LDL	“Bad” cholesterol; higher levels generally raise risk.
Triglycerides (TG)	Blood fats influenced by diet and metabolism.

Common patterns

High LDL ± normal TG → classic elevation to address with your clinician.
High TG + Low HDL → pattern sometimes associated with insulin resistance.
Very high TG → may require prompt medical attention to reduce pancreatitis risk.
