Table 4.

Relative risk of clinical outcomes (a second PTCA, myocardial infarction, CABG, cardiovascular death) according to LIPC gene genotypes

LIPC status CAD subjects with clinical outcomes CAD subjects without clinical outcomes
n. (%) n. (%) Odds ratio (95% CI)

CC (wild type) carriers 6 (13.4%) 9 (60%) 1
GG + GC carriers 39 (86.6%) 6 (40%) 7.6 (1.01–57.2)*

Odds ratios were adjusted for age, sex, plasma triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, smoking habits (yes/no). Triglycerides were also independent predictors of clinical outcomes (OR 1.01 (95% CI: 1.00–1.02), p < 0.04) * p < 0.03
