Apolipoprotein B is associated with CT-angiographic progression beyond low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in patients with coronary artery disease

BACKGROUND: Accumulating evidence indicated that apolipoprotein B (apoB) was the principal lipid determinant of coronary artery disease (CAD). Nevertheless, the connection between apoB and angiographic progression of CAD remained undetermined. METHODS: Five hundred and forty-four CAD patients with t...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Accumulating evidence indicated that apolipoprotein B (apoB) was the principal lipid determinant of coronary artery disease (CAD). Nevertheless, the connection between apoB and angiographic progression of CAD remained undetermined. METHODS: Five hundred and forty-four CAD patients with twice coronary computed tomography angiography experiences were enrolled. The Gensini scoring system was used to assess angiographic progression. Incident angiographic progression was defined as an annual change rate of the Gensini score of > 1 point. The predictive efficacy of baseline apoB levels for angiographic progression was assessed using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. For comparative purposes, patients were categorized into three groups according to their baseline apoB tertiles. Furthermore, discordance analyses defined by the median were performed to assess the superiority of apoB over lipoprotein cholesterol in predicting angiographic progression of CAD. RESULTS: Angiographic progression was observed in 184 patients (33.8%) during a follow-up period of 2.2-year. The area under the ROC curve was 0.565 (0.522–0.607, P = 0.013). The incidence of angiographic progression was elevated with increasing apoB tertile after adjusting for confounding factors [odds ratio (OR) for the medium apoB tertile: 1.92, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.15–3.19, P = 0.012; OR for the high apoB tertile: 2.05, 95%CI:1.17–3.60, P = 0.013]. Additionally, discordance analyses showed that the higher apoB group had a significantly higher risk of CAD progression in the fully adjusted model (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: ApoB could be used as an accurate and comprehensive indicator of angiographic progression in patients with CAD.
