LDL_eq

This function calculates and returns the LDL value computed from any of the 12 named equations.

A wide variety of ways to calculate (through equations) or predict (using 9 Machine learning methods as well as a stack algorithm combination of them all) the Low Density Lipoprotein values of patients based on the values of three other metrics, namely Total Cholesterol , Triglycerides and High Density Lipoprotein. It can also calculate the variance of LDL and the Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) using error propagation and bootstrapping.
