Atherogenic dyslipidaemia and cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes or pre-diabetes and stable coronary artery disease: a prospective, cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The aim of the study was to investigate the impacts of triglyceride (TG) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) dyslipidaemia on prognosis in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with different glucose metabolism status.

Design

An observational cohort study.

Setting/participants

A total of 3057 patients with stable CAD were consecutively enrolled and divided into three groups according to different glucose metabolism status. Atherogenic dyslipidaemia (AD) was defined as TG ≥1.7 mmol/L and HDL-C <1.0 mmol/L for men or <1.3 mmol/L for women. The patients were further classified into six subgroups by status of AD. All subjects were followed up for the cardiovascular events (CVEs).

Primary outcome measures

The primary endpoints were cardiovasc
