Classification accuracy of modified and original equations for calculating small-dense low-density lipoprotein (sd-LDL) cholesterol in the validation set. The 80th percentile (50 mg/dL) of sd-LDL cholesterol as threshold. Accuracy and misclassification rates according to triglycerides (TG) intervals (A). Accuracy and misclassification rates according to LDL cholesterol intervals (B). Data of 12,718 participants in the validation set from Beijing Health Management Cohort were analyzed. Note: We compare the modified equation developed in this study with Sampsons sdLDL-C equation as the original equation
