    Summary: This report is the first of its kind to measure health service coverage and financial protection to assess countries' progress towards universal health coverage. It shows that at least 400 million people do not have access to one or more essential health services and 6% of people in low- and middle-income countries are tipped into or pushed further into extreme poverty because of health spending.--Publisher description.

    1. Changes in lipid components of lipoproteins during incubation of horse serum at 37 degrees C were investigated. In non-incubated serum, cholesterol and lecithin existed predominantly in alpha-lipoprotein or in high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Lysolecithin was mainly associated with the fraction with density above 1.21. 2. When serum was separated into alpha- and beta-lipoproteins by the heparin precipitation method after 1 hr incubation, the decrease in alpha-lipoprotein free cholesterol and lecithin was about four times that in beta-lipoprotein counterparts. 3. When serum lipoproteins were separated by ultracentrifugation, the decrease in each lipoprotein free cholesterol was closely paralleled with that in lecithin. 4. HDL appeared to be a preferential substrate for the lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase reaction. 5. Disc electrophoretic patterns indicated significant differences in the composition of horse serum lipoproteins from those of human and rat.
