Data are reported as the or (%), median (interquartile ranges). SD: standard deviation; BMI: body mass index; HbA1c: hemoglobin A1c; apoB: apolipoprotein B; apoA1: apolipoprotein A1; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; Lp(a): lipoprotein (a); hs-CRP: hypersensitive C-reactive protein; HCY: homocysteine; sdLDL-C: small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Statistical analysis was performed with the ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test and with chi-squared test for categorical variables. |
