Abstract
Methods, computer program products and apparatus determine a subject's risk of having or developing CHD using a calculated LDL particle risk number and/or a mathematical model of risk associated with LDL particles that adjusts concentrations of at least one of small and large LDL particle measurements to reflect predicted CHD risk.
