The level of cholesterol (CS) in all classes of blood plasma lipoproteins (LP) and the LP content of free and esterified CS, phospholipids, triglycerides and protein were studied in patients; the patients had ischemic heart disease with and without angiographic signs of injury to the coronary vessels. Ischemic heart disease patients with uninvolved coronary arteries (according to coronarography data) demonstrated changes in the content of atherogenic LPLD and antiatherogenic LPHD [high densitys), and in the lipid-protein composition of the LP; these changes were similar to those characteristic of patients with angiographically-revealed coronary atherosclerosis, but less pronounced.
