  1. Data are presented as mean mean ± SD. LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; sdLDL-C: small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; RLP-C: remnant lipoprotein cholesterol; HbA1c: hemoglobin A1c; ApoA-I: apolipoprotein A-I; ApoB: apolipoprotein B; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; hsCRP: high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; Lp (a): lipoprotein (a)
  2. aIndicates the comparison of mean or percentage between CVs group and non-CVs group
