Non standard measurements used: counters, cubes, feet, hands and paperclips (it may be an idea to have blue tac on hand for measuring larger objects with counters and paperclips to make it easier for visual learners to see how many were needed to measure each object.
Another study examining the effects the different lipids in terms of heart disease risk found that «triglyceride concentration was not independently related with CHD risk after controlling for HDL - C,
non — HDL - C, and other
standard risk factors, including null findings in women and under nonfasting conditions.21, 22 Hence, for population - wide assessment of vascular risk, triglyceride
measurement provides no additional information about vascular risk given knowledge of HDL - C and total cholesterol levels, although there may be separate reasons to measure triglyceride concentration (eg, prevention of pancreatitis).»
