Table 1 Group comparisons for different variables in different Gensini score groups: Continuous variables are given as means ± SD and evaluated using analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by least significant difference (LSD) test for multiple comparisons. Dichotomous and categorical variables are given as percentages and and compared using Pearson’s χ 2 test

From: Human serum preβ1-high density lipoprotein levels are independently and negatively associated with coronary artery diseases

BMI body mass index, DM diabetes mellitus, TC total cholesterol, TG triglyceride, HDL-C high density lipoprotein cholesterol, LDL-C low density lipoprotein cholesterol, ApoAI apolipoprotein A, ApoB apolipoprotein B, ApoE apolipoprotein E, Lp (a) Lipoprotein (a). The sum of the peak areas (after scanning see Fig. 1) was taken as the total amount of plasma lipoproteins, and the percentage (%) of each lipoprotein fraction was calculated automatically by the densitometer
