Lipids, lipoproteins and other coronary risk factors in Chinese male survivors of myocardial infarction.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To assess the importance of an abnormal lipid profile as a risk factor in relation to non-biochemical risk factors, and to define the risk levels for lipid, lipoprotein and apolipoprotein in a Chinese population. PATIENTS AND METHODS:Serum lipids, lipoproteins, apolipoproteins and other cardiovascular risk factors were studied in 89 Chinese men 3 months after acute myocardial infarction and 56 controls. RESULTS:Cases had higher mean total cholesterol (TC), LDL- and VLDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and apolipoprotein B (Apo B), and lower mean HDL-cholesterol and apolipoprotein AI (Apo AI). Mean BMI was also higher, as was the prevalence of smokers and subjects with a history of hypertension. In univariate analysis, the odds ratios for TG > or = 1.6 mmol/l, LDL-cholesterol > or = 4.1 mmol/l, VLDL-cholesterol > or = 0.73 mmol/l, Apo B > or = 104 mg/dl were of the same order of magnitude as being a current smoker, having a BMI > or = 24.3 kg/m2, and a history of hypertension. High HDL-cholesterol (> or = 1.39 mmol/l) and Apo AI (> or = 139 mg/dl) were protective factors. The odds ratios for successively higher quartile values of cholesterol were not statistically significant. Multiple logistic regression identified smoking habit, history of hypertension, obesity, high Apo B and low Apo AI concentrations as independent risk factors for myocardial infarction. CONCLUSIONS:In a Chinese population, low serum Apo AI and high Apo B are risk factors for myocardial infarction of a comparable magnitude to smoking, hypertension and obesity.

  • Is left ventricular diastolic function an independent marker of prognosis after acute myocardial infarction?
