The Triglyceride Paradox in Stroke Survivors: A Prospective Study

Table 5

Association between triglyceride^# and death stratified by statin use and gender.

	Death ≤ 3 months	Alive at 3 months	𝑃 value
Triglyceride (with no prior statin use)	1.00 (0.67 to 1.47)	1.31 (0.93 to 1.78)	0.0345*
Triglyceride (with prior statin use)	1.24 (0.63 to 1.78)	1.55 (1.15 to 2.28)	0.0221*
Triglycerides in males	1.00 (0.63 to 1.31)	1.39 (1.00 to 1.94)	0.0023*
Triglycerides in females	1.29 (0.86 to 1.75)	1.41 (1.00 to 2.03)	0.3405

#Log of triglyceride was used to test the associations as it had a nonnormal distribution.
