Aim: Sampson et al. proposed a method to calculate small dense low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (sdLDL-C) concentrations using common lipid measurements, but its accuracy remains unresolved. We examined the difference between Sampson’s equation and direct measurement in patients with diabetes.Met...
