Abstract

The article discusses whether nonfasting triglyceride levels predicted the risk of myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic heart disease, and death in the general population. It stated that premature atherosclerosis occurs in patients with moderately increased triglyceride levels and with such conditions as metabolic syndrome, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperlipidemia. Moreover, triglyceride levels are measured after the patients has fasted, and exclude remnant lipoproteins.
