Difference between Cholesterol and Lipid hypothesis

Cholesterol vs. Lipid hypothesis

Cholesterol (from the Ancient Greek chole- (bile) and stereos (solid), followed by the chemical suffix -ol for an alcohol) is an organic molecule. The lipid hypothesis is a medical theory postulating a link between blood cholesterol levels and occurrence of heart disease.

Similarities between Cholesterol and Lipid hypothesis

Cholesterol and Lipid hypothesis have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Atheroma, Atherosclerosis, Cardiovascular disease, Cell membrane, Coronary artery disease, Hypercholesterolemia, Lipid, Low-density lipoprotein, Statin.

Atheroma

An atheroma is a reversible accumulation of degenerative material in the inner layer of an artery wall.

Cell membrane

The cell membrane (also known as the plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane, and historically referred to as the plasmalemma) is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment (the extracellular space).

Coronary artery disease

Coronary artery disease (CAD), also known as ischemic heart disease (IHD), refers to a group of diseases which includes stable angina, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, and sudden cardiac death.

Low-density lipoprotein

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoprotein which transport all fat molecules around the body in the extracellular water.

Cholesterol and Lipid hypothesis Comparison

Cholesterol has 213 relations, while Lipid hypothesis has 30. As they have in common 9, the Jaccard index is 3.70% = 9 / (213 + 30).
