TL;DR: In addition to those that are largely associated with LDL-C, genetic loci mainly associated with circulating triglycerides and HDL-C are also associated with risk of CAD, and these findings potentially provide new insights into the biological mechanisms underlying lipid metabolism and CAD risk.
