摘要: Total cholesterol level is significantly related to risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), adjusting for other factors in women 50 79 years old and men aged 64 years, at P < .001. Determining the levels lipoproteins such as low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) high-density-lipoprotein (HDL) improves prediction risk. Triglycerides are independently all ages but miss statistical significance multivariate studies men. The total cholesterol-HDL ratio another powerful predictor only lipid CHD 65 80 old. Inspection age-specific association with also reveals that absolute rates worsen age.
