Abstract
Although the role of inflammation in atherosclerosis is established, whether this relationship remains important after lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is still unclear. Recently in The Lancet, Ridker etal. demonstrated that residual inflammatory risk was a stronger predictor of fatal and non-fatal events compared to residual cholesterol risk, supporting the concept of inflammation testing to guide vascular risk reduction.
