SE standard error, RD relative difference, HDL high-density lipoprotein, LDL low-density lipoprotein.
RD can be interpreted as a percent lower (negative value) or higher (positive value).
Models were adjusted by age (years), sex (male vs. female), race (White vs. non-White), education (years), APOE e4 carriership (yes vs. no), body mass index (kg/m²), physical activity (hours/week), smoking history (never vs. ever), MIND diet score (points), and dietary assignment (MIND diet group vs control diet group).
