The LDL-HDL Profile Determines the Risk of Atherosclerosis: A Mathematical Model by Wenrui Hao (534305)

“…For example, individuals with LDL above 190 mg/dL and HDL below 40 mg/dL are at high risk, while individuals with LDL below 100 mg/dL and HDL above 50 mg/dL are at no risk. In this paper, we developed a mathematical model of the formation of a plaque, which includes the following key variables: LDL and HDL, free radicals and oxidized LDL, MMP and TIMP, cytockines: MCP-1, IFN-<i>γ</i>, IL-12 and PDGF, and cells: macrophages, foam cells, T cells and smooth muscle cells. …”
