Long-term outcomes according to absolute value vs. percentage reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels after acute myocardial infarction.

3.4 Clinical outcomes according to percentage LDL-C reductions from baseline There was a decreasing trend of MACE incidence among the percentage LDL-C reductions from baseline strata (167/876 [19.1%] in LDL-C reduction <0% vs. 292/2,655 [11.0%] in LDL-C reduction 0%–49% vs. 211/2,707 [7.8%] in LDL-C reduction ≥50% for MACE, P < 0.001; and 82/876 [9.4%] vs. 152/2,655 [5.7%] vs. 78/2,707 [2.9%] for all-cause death, P < 0.001) ( Table 4 ).
