In the subjects, who survived a stroke, an atherogenic lipoprotein profile phenotype B, was identified and a predominance of atherogenic lipoproteins of the lipoprotein families, VLDL and LDL, in the lipoprotein spectrum, was confirmed. The higher total cholesterol, triglycerides, and low HDL concentrations were accompanied by high serum levels of small dense LDL - strong atherogenic subfractions of the LDL family. High LDL2 also contributes to the creation of the atherogenic lipoprotein profile. Conversely, decreased serum concentration of LDL1 suggests, that the LDL1 subfraction does not contribute to the creation of an atherogenic lipoprotein profile of specific individuals, i.e., those who survived a stroke.
