Evaluation of Low-Density Lipoprotein Particle Number Distribution in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol <50 mg/dl and Non-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol <80 mg/dl

Many patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have relatively normal levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol yet have increased risk for cardiovascular events. Distribution of lipoprotein subclasses in patients with T2DM who have achieved very low levels of LDL cholesterol (
