Effect of High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Levels on Overall Survival and Major Adverse Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events

In this study, we report the effect of HDL-C levels on overall survival outcomes and rates of MACCE following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We reviewed patients who underwent PCI at the Cleveland Clinic from 2005 through 2017 and followed them through the end of 2018. Restricted cubic splines incorporated into Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to assess the outcomes.
