LDL 3.88mmol/L is a borderline level, which has a certain degree of severity, and the exact degree needs to be judged comprehensively.
The appropriate level of LDL is less than 3.4mmol/L, 3.4 to 4.1mmol/L is borderline, and 3.88mmol/l is borderline. Since uncontrolled LDL elevation can increase the chance of atherosclerotic diseases such as coronary heart disease and cerebral infarction, it requires some attention.
The risk of atherosclerotic disease is stratified according to the number of risk factors the patient has, with very high risk patients and high risk patients having a higher risk of developing the disease and therefore being more serious. For intermediate-risk and low-risk groups, this level of LDL cholesterol is not considered serious, and the prognosis is usually better with aggressive intervention.
In conclusion, this level of LDL has a certain degree of severity, but further professional evaluation is needed to stratify the risk, and timely medical treatment is recommended.
