Brief Answer:
nothing worrisome
Detailed Answer:
I've seen your report. Everything is OK!
The HDL particles you've asked about are a little on the low side, which confers less protection than the HDL usually does but the blood levels of both HDL and LDL are not unfavorable. The large HDL particles are the most protective ones and a high LDL concentration combined with high percentage of large HDL are the best regarding cardiovascular risk. Your large HDL particles are somewhat low as a fraction of total HDL.
The overall impression is that your tests are good and there is nothing you should worry about!
I hope you find my comments helpful!
You can contact me again, if you'd like any clarification or further information.
Kind Regards!

Thank you!!
Brief Answer:
typo...
Detailed Answer:
You're welcome!
I've actually included a typo! "... as a fraction of total HDL ..." should be corrected to "... as a fraction of total LDL particles". Small and dense LDL particles are the most atherogenic while the large are the protective ones. I had to make it more clear....
Kind Regards!
