This study fairly obviously shows no relationship between blood LDL-C concentrations and CAC scores. Yet the authors conclude: "These results highlight the multifactorial character of atherosclerosis as a disease not only driven by LDL-C levels, despite their causal.

Which is better for risk of cardiovascular events,.LDL-C or CT CAC?. Across all LDL-C levels, absence of CAC was associated with low rates of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, with increasing rates in patients with greater CAC burden.
