title: [Residual lipid profile in recurrent ischemic cardiopathy].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  In this paper we analyze the lipid profile of a cohort of patients attended in different tertiary hospitals with acute coronary syndrome (angor pectoris or acute myocardial infarction).
  
  
  METHODS
  We have analysed different variables of patients with acute coronary syndrome, related with the prevalence and grade of main cardiovascular risk factors, and related with different treatments. We have analysed the lipid profile, and stratified the results according with the status of the first acute coronary event or recurrent coronary event.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Patients with recurrent disease showed lower levels of total cholesterol and LDL-c, and similar levels of HDL-c and triglycerides in relation with patients with a first event.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We found similar HDL-c and triglycerides levels in both groups of patients meaning that, despite a standard statins treatment, patients with a first coronary event did not modify such a lipid profile. It is necessary to do a more intensive therapeutic effort over all the lipid fractions with the aim to reduce the recurrences of coronary events.
