genuine question about ApoB that I am slightly embarrassed to ask

Concerning Clean Column ×2 Well Actually ×1 Sourced ×1

Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud.

The advice on ApoB in this community changed substantially around the start of last year, and nobody went back and updated the older posts. So depending on which thread the search engine hands you, you get two contradictory answers with the same confidence.

I have listed what I think the current consensus is below. Correct me — that is the point of posting it.

Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.

Baseline ALT: 96.2. Week 53: 97.2. Same lab, fasted, same time of day. Trend matters.

Slight fix: the number was 98.6, not 98.7. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

post reference ranges with your numbers, units differ by country and lab

Tracking number removed.

Adding to this: baseline labs is doing more work than the comment implies.
