Abstract:
The residual cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is the term applied to the cardiovascular events remain prevalent among individuals with low or normal LDL-C, normal blood pressure and glucose. Therefore, while controlling traditional risk factors, the CVD residual risk is constantly being discovered, which is crucial for further reducing CVD events. Lipoprotein (a), TRLs and their residues, HDL-C, hypersensitive CRP and homocysteine have been found to be CVD residual risk factors. Whether gene-related factors and some new non-traditional factors can predict residual CVD risk have also become the current research hotspots. Focusing on the residual risk factors of cardiovascular disease can provide new ideas for further reducing CVD events.
