Background: Worldwide coronary heart disease (CHD) is estimated to be the leading cause of death. Current knowledge about prevention of CHD is mainly derived from developed countries. Therefore, this study aimed to find out the association of CHD with ratios of different lipoproteins and apolipoproteins, LDL particle size, as well as different traditional risk factors in Asian Indian population in Eastern part of India.
Methods: Case-control study of 100 patients with CHD and 98 healthy controls were age and sex matched. After clinical evaluation, blood samples were collected for biochemical assays.
Results: Multivariate logistic regression analysis found apoB (OR 2.96; 95% CI 1.02-8.54), apoB/HDL-c (OR 4.14; 95% CI 1.33-12.83), nonHDL-c (OR 5.41; 95% CI 2.08-14.10), apoB/apoAI (OR 6.64; 95% CI 2.37-18.57), and LDL particle size (9.59; 95% CI 2.92-31.54) were independently associated with CHD. Area under the ROC curves derived from the model (AUROC 0.947; 95% CI 0.916-0.977) are significantly higher than any other variables.
Conclusions: Findings from the multivariate analysis, apoB, apoB/HDL-c, nonHDL-c, apoB/apoAI, and LDL particle size are potent indicators and useful for diagnosis of predisposed CHD.
