Summary
This study looked at how well the body clears fats from the blood after a meal (triglyceride tolerance) in 514 people with stable coronary artery disease. Researchers wanted to see if poor fat clearance could help predict future heart attacks or death. Participants were followed for 18 months, and the study measured fat and sugar metabolism along with lifestyle factors. The goal was to find a better way to identify high-risk patients beyond standard cholesterol tests.
