Popis: | The atheroprotective role of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels in coronary artery disease (CAD) remains controversial. This study sought to reappraise the value of HDL-C in predicting the severity and outcomes of new-onset patients with stable CAD in Chinese populations.A total of 4205 new-onset patients with stable CAD who received coronary angiography were enrolled to analyze the relation of HDL-C to coronary severity and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). Coronary severity was evaluated by Gensini scoring system. The MACEs included all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, stroke, unplanned revascularization and hospitalized unstable angina.Significantly, HDL-C levels were negatively associated with coronary severity (p 0.001). During an average of 27.32-month follow-up, 341 (8.12%) MACEs occurred. There was no significant difference of HDL-C levels between events group and non-events group. Furthermore, both Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses found no relationship between HDL-C and cardiovascular outcomes (p 0.05).Plasma HDL-C levels appeared to be a predicator for coronary severity, but it is not associated with clinical outcomes in new-onset, Chinese patients with stable CAD. |
