29 Background: Despite clear associations between  blood lipids and coronary heart disease [CHD], and increasing  evidence that HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) reduce the  incidence of stroke the associations of blood lipids with stroke are  not clear.Methods: We followed up 11,177 patients with  documented CHD who were screened for but not included in the  Bezafibrate Infarction Prevention (BIP) study, a secondary prevention  randomized clinical trial of lipid modification, and had no history of  stroke, for subsequent cerebrovascular disease (CVD). During a 6 to 8  year follow- up period 941 patients had a non-hemorrhagic CVD, of whom  487 were verified ischemic strokes or TIAs.Results: Age-adjusted rates of non-hemorrhagic CVD (per 1000  person-years)increased with increasing quintiles of total cholesterol  and of LDL cholesterol from 10 to 14, increased with increasing  quintiles of triglycerides from 9 to 17, and decreased with increasing  quintiles of HDL cholesterol and percent of total serum cholesterol  contained in the HDL moiety (%HDL) from 15 to 9 and from 18 to 9 per  1000 person years, respectively (p 200mg/dl  compared to lower levels was 1.47 [95%CI 1.19 to 1.80].Conclusions: These findings clearly support the role of  blood lipids including total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL  cholesterol, %HDL, and triglycerides in prediction of ischemic  stroke/TIA among patients with established CHD.
