Williams 1993 US MEDPED total cholesterol cutoffs by age and relative degree (fi

Williams 1993 US MEDPED total cholesterol cutoffs by age and relative degree (first, second, third, or general population). Meets the published criterion iff total cholesterol in mg/dL is greater than the table cutoff (mmol/L converted as mg/dL = mmol/L * 38.67). Total cholesterol only; not Dutch Lipid Clinic or Simon Broome. Not a medical device and not a diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia.
