  • 52 Accesses

Abstract

The close correlation between LDL-cholesterol concentration and risk of myocardial infarction is well known (4). LDL-cholesterol is considered an atherogenic factor (8). In contrast it would appear that HDL has antiatherogenic properties, since there is a negative correlation between HDL-cholesterol and risk of myocardial infarction (1, 2). Low HDL-cholesterol concentrations are found with high frequency in patients with infarction (3,4,15), while high HDL concentrations are associated with longevity and reduced risk of coronary artery disease (2).
