Study finds strong correlation between Apo B and Apo B:apo A1 in fatal MI risk in men and women.  Apo B was a stronger than LDL in predicting risk in men and women.  Apo A1 was noted to be protective, but the stats were less strong.

Meta-analysis finds "strong association" between Apo A1, Apo B and the ratio Apo B:A1 and cardiovascular risk.

Apo B:apo A1 is a better predictor of cardiovascular risk than a traditional cholesterol panel is.

chapter points to the evidence on Apolipoprotien B and Apolipoprotein A1.  The evidence is strongest for Apo B and the Apo B:Apo A1 ratio.  

non fasting apo B plus HDL is predictive of cardiovascular disease risk. Apo a1 was not predictive.  

Stronger association found with apo B:apo A1 and cardiovascular disease risk than compared to cholesterol panel.
