The Apolipoprotein B/Apolipoprotein A-I Ratio as a Potential Marker of Plasma Atherogenicity

Figure 1

Distribution of subjects depending on the apoA-I and apoB levels in the groups with apoB/apoA-I<0.9 and apoB/apoA-I>0.9. Values of apoB>120 mg/dL and apoA-I<120 mg/dL have been proposed as the cut-off points defining a high cardiovascular risk [21, 22].
