Methods, systems, and computer program products for analyzing and presenting risk assessment results based on nmr lipoprotein analysis of blood

摘要

A method for analyzing a patient's risk of coronary heart disease by determining the presence of NMR-derived or based lipoprotein constituent value abnormalities includes determining the presence of atherogenic dyslipidemia based on the existence of a clustering of lipoprotein constituent abnormalities as defined by predetermined test criteria. Computer program products and automatically produced reports for presenting NMR-derived lipoprotein risk assessment based on patient-specific lipoprotein subclass results present the measurement results adjacent to a segmented reference risk analysis portion. The actual measured results are visually aligned and enhanced within the risk analysis portion to provide easy reference and understanding of the results relative to a risk of developing coronary heart disease.
