Triglyceride and coronary heart disease.
The predictive association of triglyceride (TG) in coronary heart disease (CHD). In patients without CHD levels were elevated in those coronary risk factors, as compared to those without the risk factor the elevation of TG may occur in asymptomatic subjects before the onset of clinical manifestation of CHD. The high-risk, asymptomatic subjects with high levels of TG may be on the "threshold" of the sysptomatic phase of CHD. The levels had a positive correlation with body mass index and increased with increasing number of coronary risk factors.
