Abstract | PURPOSE: Several studies have provided support for a proatherogenic role for remnant lipoproteins. Thus, the aim of this study was to compare remnant-like particle (RLP) cholesterol levels in patients with coronary artery disease who were normolipidemic with those in controls of similar age and gender. We also assessed the usefulness of measuring RLP- cholesterol levels in patients with type III dyslipidemia. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: RESULTS: CONCLUSION:
