Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHOD: We performed an oral fat tolerance test in 32 patients with acute myocardial infarction and compared the following parameters between patients characterized by either large buoyant LDL (pattern A) versus pattern B: lipids and apolipoproteins (apo) in the plasma and Svedberg flotation rates (Sf) >400 ( chylomicron), Sf 60-400 (large VLDL), and Sf 20-60 (small VLDL) fractions. RESULT: CONCLUSION: These results suggest that postprandial increase of large VLDL fractions and RLPs contribute to the formation of small dense LDL in CHD patients.
