The correlation coefficients of Friedewald’s and the Vujovic’s LDL-c equations with direct measurement in determining levels of LDL-c pooled from 4 from matching studies. Both equations established a positive correlation with the direct method. Nevertheless, Vujovic’s LDL-c equation demonstrated a stronger positive correlation with the direct method [0.95 (95% CI 0.93–0.96)] than Friedewald’s equation [0.88 (95% CI 0.84–0.93)]
