What's included
4 deliverables in this treatment
- Full lipid profile: total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides
- Apolipoproteins A1 and B (advanced cardiovascular risk markers beyond standard lipids)
- Homocysteine (independent cardiovascular risk marker, linked to B12/folate status)
- CRP (inflammatory risk marker), glucose, and additional cardiac parameters (22 total)
A 22-parameter cardiovascular risk assessment panel available from cz.unilabs.online, covering the full lipid profile with apolipoproteins, homocysteine, high-sensitivity CRP, glucose, and additional cardiac markers in a single venous blood draw. Cardiovascular disease accounts for 18.6 million deaths globally each year; most risk factors accumulate silently over decades before producing symptoms. The EXPERT panel is designed for anyone wanting a comprehensive, evidence-grounded overview of their personal cardiovascular risk — particularly adults aged 40+ or those with family history, elevated blood pressure, or metabolic concerns. No GP referral needed. Results within 3 business days. Rated 4.95/5 across 19 reviews.
About this treatment
The Vyšetření srdce EXPERT panel at Unilabs CZ goes substantially beyond a standard lipid test, covering 22 parameters that collectively address the major modifiable and biological cardiovascular risk factors. The panel is positioned for adults who want more than a basic cholesterol result — particularly those managing multiple risk factors or who have been advised by a physician to get a comprehensive cardiovascular picture.
The lipid component includes total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides — the standard quartet that forms the basis of cardiovascular risk calculators. Beyond this, the EXPERT panel adds apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB), which are increasingly preferred over HDL and LDL in cardiovascular risk stratification because they measure the actual lipoprotein particles that transport cholesterol through the…
Homocysteine is a critical addition: elevated homocysteine (hyperhomocysteinemia) is an independent cardiovascular risk factor associated with endothelial damage, thrombosis, and accelerated atherosclerosis. It is elevated in patients with B12 or folate deficiency, renal impairment, or genetic MTHFR variants — conditions that are common and often undetected. CRP (C-reactive protein) in this panel serves as the inflammatory risk marker, identifying the…

Panel categories
Biomarkers tested
6The main protein component of HDL cholesterol particles. Higher ApoA1 levels reflect more HDL particles and are associated with lower cardiovascular risk. The ApoB/ApoA1 ratio is a powerful predictor of heart disease.
Blood sugar — the body's primary energy source. Fasting glucose screens for diabetes and prediabetes. Chronically elevated glucose damages blood vessels and organs. Levels fluctuate with meals, stress, and physical activity.
Often called 'good' cholesterol, HDL carries cholesterol away from arteries back to the liver for removal. Higher HDL levels are protective against heart disease. Exercise, healthy fats, and moderate alcohol intake can raise HDL.
An amino acid produced during protein metabolism. Elevated homocysteine is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, stroke, and cognitive decline. Levels are lowered by adequate B12, folate, and B6 intake.
Often called 'bad' cholesterol, LDL deposits cholesterol in artery walls, contributing to plaque buildup and atherosclerosis. LDL is the primary target for cardiovascular risk reduction through diet, exercise, and medication.
The most common type of fat in the body, stored for energy. Elevated triglycerides — often from excess sugar, alcohol, or calories — increase cardiovascular risk and can cause pancreatitis at very high levels.
