OP-023 The Value of Total Cholesterol – HDL Cholesterol Ratio in Predicting Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Cross Sectional Study in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography




Objective


Total cholesterol- HDL cholesterol ratio (TC/HDL-C ratio) has recently been proposed as a predictor of atherogenesis, but its usefulness has not been confirmed. The aim of the present study is to find out the relation between high atherogenic burden as evidenced with Gensini score and high TC/HDL-C ratio and the role of TC/HDL-C ratio in predicting the occurrence of acute coronary syndromes (ACS).




Methods


414 adults who had coronary angiogram for stable or acute coronary syndromes were included in this study. Lipid profiles and atherogenic burden by assessing Gensini Scores in coronary angiographies were evaluated for each patient.
