During a transverse survey, 3 groups of men with the same weight and age were compared. Group I included 42 patients with coronary disease documented by coronarography, group 2 included 19 subjects with normal coronary angiograms, and group 3 included 27 healthy controls who had not undergone coronarography. Subjects presenting diabetes or any factor associated with secondary dyslipidemia or able to modify lipid levels were excluded from study. The following parameters were measured: total cholesterol (Chol), triglycerides (TG), HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C), apoprotein A1 (apoA1), apoprotein B (apoB), lipoprotein (a) or Lp(a), fibrinogen, insulinemia and plasminogen activator inhibitor activity (PAI). The levels of chol, LDL-C and ApoB were the same in the 3 groups. The levels of TG, HDL-C, apoA1 and the ApoA-1/APoB ratio were significantly different between groups 1 and 2, on the one hand, and groups 1 and 3, on the other hand. The levels of Lp(a) and insulin were similar in the 3 groups. Fibrinogen levels were slightly higher in group 1 than in group 3. There was no significant difference between groups 1 and 2 with regard to any of the parameters. Subjects with angiographically normal coronary arteries and subjects with documented coronary disease exhibited similar lipid abnormalities. In this study, TG, HDL-chol, apoA1 and the apoB ratio were better predictors of cardiovascular risk than Chol, LDL-C or apoB.
