High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Particle Concentrations, Carotid Atherosclerosis, and Coronary Events
نویسنده
چکیده
Methods In a multiethnic study of 5,598 men and women ages 45 to 84 years old, without baseline CHD, excluding subjects on lipid-lowering medications, triglycerides 400 mg/dl, or missing values, we evaluated associations of HDL-C and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy-measured HDL-P with cIMT and incident CHD (myocardial infarction, CHD death, and angina, n 227 events; mean 6.0 years follow-up). All models were adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, hypertension, and smoking.

High-density lipoprotein cholesterol and particle concentrations, carotid atherosclerosis, and coronary events: MESA (multi-ethnic study of atherosclerosis).
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate independent associations of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and particle (HDL-P) concentrations with carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) and incident coronary heart disease (CHD). BACKGROUND HDL-C is inversely related to CHD, and also to triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein particles (LDL-P), and related metabolic risk. HDL...
متن کاملPlasma levels of HDL subpopulations and remnant lipoproteins predict the extent of angiographically-defined coronary artery disease in postmenopausal women.
OBJECTIVE The association of coronary heart disease (CHD) with subpopulations of triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins and high-density lipoproteins (HDL) is established in men, but has not been well characterized in women. METHODS AND RESULTS Plasma HDL subpopulation concentrations, quantified by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and plasma remnant-like particle cholesterol (RLP-C) concentrat...

Objectives. To investigate the mechanisms by which bezafibrate retarded the progression of coronary lesions in the Bezafibrate Coronary Atherosclerosis Intervention Trial (BECAIT), we examined the relationships of on-trial lipoproteins and lipoprotein subfractions to the angiographic outcome measurements. Background. BECAIT, the first double-blind, placebocontrolled, randomized serial angiograp...
متن کاملPostprandial enrichment of remnant lipoproteins with apoC-I in healthy normolipidemic men with early asymptomatic atherosclerosis.
OBJECTIVES Recently, we reported that exaggerated postprandial triglyceridemia in normolipidemic patients with coronary artery disease is associated with enrichment of remnant lipoproteins with apolipoprotein C-I (apoC-I). In this study, the number and composition of chylomicron remnants and very low density lipoproteins (VLDLs) were examined in 30 asymptomatic normolipidemic 50-year-old men wi...
متن کاملRelationship of lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations to experimental atherosclerosis in baboons.
For 26 months, we fed baboons a high saturated fat, high cholesterol diet that contained very low concentrations of four common pesticides (chlordane, parathion, diazinon, and carbofuran). We detected no effect of pesticides on body weight, serum lipid, or lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations, or experimental atherosclerosis. We then examined the associations of serum lipid and lipoprotein ch...
