Abstract
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) and small dense low-density lipoprotein (sdLDL) represent two critical yet contrasting components in lipid metabolism and cardiovascular risk modulation. While HDL has traditionally been viewed as cardioprotective due to its role in reverse cholesterol transport and anti-inflammatory effects, emerging evidence emphasizes that HDL functionality-rather than concentration alone-is pivotal in atheroprotection. Conversely, sdLDL particles are increasingly recognized as highly atherogenic due to their enhanced arterial penetration, oxidative susceptibility, and prolong
