Over the median follow-up period of 5.4 years, one more major events (MCEs) occurred in 622 (28%) 2223 group 431 (19%) 2221 (34% risk reduction, P<.00001). produced substantial changes several lipoprotein components, which we have attempted relate beneficial effects observed. Methods Results—The Cox proportional hazards model was used assess relationship between lipid values (baseline, year 1, percent change from baseline at 1) MCEs. The reduction MCEs within highly correlated on-treatment levels total LDL cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, an...
