The association between serum apolipoprotein A-I and apolipoprotein B and the severity of angiographical coronary artery disease
Singapore Medical Journal, 07/02/09
Khadem-Ansari MH et al. - ApoA-I and apoB are indicated as risk factors for cardiovascular and, possibly, cerebrovascular diseases. From this study, it may be concluded that apoA-I and apoB serum concentration levels are independent risk factors for coronary atherosclerosis in the Iranian population. It also demonstrates a direct relationship between the severity of coronary atherosclerosis and the number of lesions in the involved vessels. It can be regarded as an index for the relationship of apoA-I and apoB to the early, still clinically asymptomatic, steps of the pathogenesis of coronary disease.
