Abstract
The residual risk in patients with atherosclerosis, despite the its controversial aspects, remains an urgent problem of modern cardiology. The article presents a review of publications on the prevalence and significance for determining the prognosis of residual risk, which is currently interpreted as the risk of macroand microvascular complications in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ACVD) taking standard therapy, with the achievement of optimal levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, blood pressure and glucose. Based on available publications, we highlighted current views on the factors associated with residual inflammatory and lipid risks in ACVD patients, including those associated with heart failure and diabetes, and the prognostic significance of residual risk in such patients. An attempt was made to rationale the significance of determining the residual risk for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events.
