Neither of those brewing methods passes the
coffee through a paper filter. Coffee contains
the diterpenes cafestol and kahweol, which raise
LDL (bad cholesterol), but paper filters absorb
nearly all of these diterpenes.
Here's a link to an article in the British Medical Journal
on the subject:

I believe the term "cafetiere coffee" means the same thing
as French press.
