Residual lipid profile in recurrent ischemic cardiopathy, cardiopathy

Residual lipid profile in recurrent ischemic cardiopathy.

J Milln, J Pedro-Botet, A Muoz, E Corbella... - Medicina ..., 2011 - BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In this paper we analyze the lipid profile of a cohort of patients attended in different tertiary hospitals with acute coronary syndrome (angor pectoris or acute myocardial infarction). PATIENTS AND METHODS: We have analysed different variables ...

We have analysed different variables of patients with acute coronary syndrome, related with the prevalence and grade of main cardiovascular risk factors, and related with different treatments. We have analysed the lipid profile, and stratified the results according with the status of the first acute coronary event or recurrent coronary event.

We found similar HDL-c and triglycerides levels in both groups of patients meaning that, despite a standard statins treatment, patients with a first coronary event did not modify such a lipid profile. It is necessary to do a more intensive therapeutic effort over all the lipid fractions with the aim to reduce the recurrences of coronary events.
