>> The genetic data currently supports very little role for inflammation in important diseases like coronary artery disease, whereas there is crystalline evidence supporting the connection between LDL-cholesterol levels and mortality
> I'd be very interested in learning more about this, do you have anything you could recommend?
I'll let the OP chime in if I'm wrong but I believe s/he is referring to the numerous genetic association studies[1] that have implicated LDL biology in coronary artery disease. Look at ref. 2 for a publicly-accessible review. The article details the genes that have been associated with coronary artery disease, none of which appear important for inflammation.
