The figure shows LDL-C therapeutic targets for the entire study cohort (N = 2611) using National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) guidelines and Screening for Heart Attack Prevention and Education (SHAPE) recommendations. To convert cholesterol to millimoles per liter, multiply by Figure Legend:

Numbers other than coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores and blood pressure (BP) and cholesterol (to convert to millimoles per liter, multiply by ) values represent the number of individuals at each division of the algorithm. CVA indicates cerebrovascular accident; DM, diabetes mellitus; EBCT, electron beam computed tomography; MI, myocardial infarction; NCEP-ATP III, National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III; PVD, peripheral vascular disease; and TC, total cholesterol.
