Extended Lipid Profile near me in Nagpur









An Extended Lipid Profile gives detailed insights into different types of cholesterol and fats in your blood, going beyond the standard lipid profile. Available at an affordable price in Nagpur with Tata 1mg labs, this profile provides a better understanding of your heart health and tells about the risks of heart disease and stroke. In addition to all the goodness of the lipid profile, an extended lipid profile includes vital biomarkers, also known as cardiac risk markers such as Lipoprotein A, homocysteine, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Elevated levels of these markers may indicate an increased risk of heart disease.
The doctor may recommend an extended lipid profile testing for Individuals with a family history of cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, or hypertension to comprehensively assess their specific risk factors. If previous lipid profile results showed abnormalities or borderline values, an extended lipid profile can provide a more detailed evaluation to guide treatment decisions. Overnight fasting (8-12 hours) is required before going for an Extended Lipid Profile. However, drinking water is acceptable.








What does Extended Lipid Profile measure?
Contains 14 testsAn Extended Lipid Profile measures various parameters related to cholesterol and other fats in the blood, providing a more comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular health.
This profile includes Apolipoprotein A1 and B serum, High-sensitivity C-reactive protein test (hs -CRP), serum homocysteine test, Lipid profile, and Lipoprotein A test. hs -CRP is a marker of inflammation in the body and high levels of hs-CRP are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Homocysteine is an amino acid linked to increased risk of heart disease and stroke when present in high levels and this test helps evaluate cardiovascular risk and may guide treatment decisions. The lipid profile includes measurements of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These all are crucial indicators of cardiovascular health and risk. Furthermore, Lipoprotein A is a type of cholesterol particle associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Elevated Apolipoprotein B (ApoB), the primary protein component of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and decreased Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), the primary protein component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
An Extended Lipid Profile aimed at providing a comprehensive evaluation of cardiovascular risk by assessing not only traditional lipid parameters but also inflammation and other risk factors.
The Lipid Profile assesses the level of specific fat molecules called lipids in the blood and helps determine the risk of heart ailments. This profile determines the amount of different types of lipids, including total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and triglycerides. Lipids play a pivotal role in the functioning of the body. They are crucial components of the cell membranes and hormones, provide cushioning, and are a storehouse of energy. Any alterations in the lipid levels may increase the risk of potential heart ailments, making their monitoring crucial.

The Apolipoproteins A1 & B test helps check the levels of Apolipoproteins in your blood. It contains three tests namely, Apolipoprotein - A1, Apolipoprotein - B, and Apolipoprotein B/A1 ratio. Apolipoprotein - A1 is the primary protein associated with HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) and its increased concentrations are associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. Apolipoprotein B is the primary protein associated with LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and other lipid molecules. An increase in LDL cholesterol is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. While the apolipoprotein B/A1 ratio compares the values of Apo B to ApoA1 and an elevated ApoB:ApoA1 ratio confers increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
Getting tested with the Apolipoproteins A1 & B test can help lower your risk for cardiovascular disease and ensure that you live a longer, healthier life.
