The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap. In the first example the result is +10.0 mg/dL.
The calculator is not a statin decision and does not compute SCORE2. The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap.
Enter data and click Calculate.
The calculator uses the numbers you enter. The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap. In the first example the result is +10.0 mg/dL.
The five form fields are LDL cholesterol, Elevated Lp documented, Familial hypercholesterolemia flag, Years since last lipid panel, and Early ASCVD in first-degree relative. LDL gap means: This is the main result on this page. In the first example it is +10.0 mg/dL. LDL cholesterol means: The first form field. It enters the formula or sits beside the result. The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap. Elevated Lp documented means: The second form field. The calculator is not a statin decision and does not compute SCORE2.
The second example gives +75.0 mg/dL. The third example gives +25.0 mg/dL. The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap. In the first example the result is +10.0 mg/dL.
The calculator is not a statin decision and does not compute SCORE2.
Enter 110, 0, 0, 1, 0, then click Calculate. A comma in 12.5 is read the same way as a period. Fields on a 0-10 scale are notes and are not the primary result unless this page formula says so.
The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap.
In the first example the result is +10.0 mg/dL. The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap.
+10.0 mg/dL
The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap. In the first example the result is +10.0 mg/dL.
+75.0 mg/dL
The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap. In the second example the result is +75.0 mg/dL.
+25.0 mg/dL
The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap. In the third example the result is +25.0 mg/dL.
In the first example the result is +10.0 mg/dL. The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap.
With the second set of fields the result is +75.0 mg/dL.
With the third set of fields the result is +25.0 mg/dL.
The result is LDL minus the target: 100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. Months since the lipid panel sit beside that gap.

Yes. 12.5 and 12,5 are read the same way.
100 mg/dL, or 70 when familial hypercholesterolemia or early atherosclerotic disease in the family is marked. The result is LDL minus that target.
No. The calculator does not compute SCORE2 and does not write a prescription. Months since the lipid panel sit beside the gap.
110 minus 100 is +10 mg/dL. That is the gap versus target, not a diagnosis.
When the FH or early family ASCVD field is marked. Then the same 110 gives a larger gap.
No. They sit beside the gap. The main result is LDL minus target.
