Oxidized-LDL is a useful marker for predicting the very early coronary artery disease and cardiovascular outcomes.
Personalized Medicine 2018 November
AIM: The link of oxidized-low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) with premature coronary artery disease (CAD) has previously been less examined. Materials & methods: A total of 1217 patients with angiography-proven CAD were consecutively enrolled and divided into very-early CAD (VECAD), early CAD and late CAD subgroups. And 72 normal control of VECAD were examined. All the subjects were followed-up for an average of 31 months.
RESULTS: Patients with VECAD had higher ox-LDL levels; and logistic regression analysis indicated that ox-LDL was an independent risk factor for VECAD among patients with CAD (adjusted odds ratio: 1.024; p < 0.001). The Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that VECAD patients had lower event-free survival (p < 0.01, respectively).
CONCLUSION: Elevated plasma ox-LDL level is independently associated with the presence and cardiovascular events in VECAD patients, suggesting that ox-LDL may be a prognostic predictor for VECAD.
