Association of Triglyceride-Lowering <i>LPL</i> Variants and LDL-C–Lowering <i>LDLR</i> Variants With Risk of Coronary Heart Disease

Abstract

Triglyceride-lowering LPL variants and LDL-C-lowering LDLR variants were associated with similar lower risk of CHD per unit difference in ApoB. Therefore, the clinical benefit of lowering triglyceride and LDL-C levels may be proportional to the absolute change in ApoB.
