Abstract
At present, total cholesterol levels do not seem to be a risk factor for ACS in the general population. The risk seems to be highest in smokers and those with low LDLc and/or increased LDLc/HDLc ratio. In younger patients, additional risk factors include a positive family history of premature coronary heart disease (CHD) and higher LDLc levels.
