Reported values are betas ± standard error and results from linear regression analysis with lipid parameters as dependent variables and thyroid parameters as independent variables. Betas are scaled and adjusted for age, gender, and BMI. CHOL: total cholesterol; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Significant associations are indicated in bold. was considered statistically significant. , , and .
