pubmed:abstractText |
Coronary calcification is a marker for coronary atherosclerosis. It has been postulated that high levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are associated with a reduced amount of atherosclerotic disease while previous reports have found a lack of association between low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and coronary calcification (CAC). The purpose of this study was to compare the correlation and predictive power of HDL-C with LDL-C for prevalent coronary calcification.
