Adjusted mean values of the lipid levels in model 2.
(a) Total cholesterol- MAI; (b) LDL-c-MAI; (c) HDL-c-MAI; (d) Triglyceride-MAI; (e) Total cholesterol- ODI; (f) LDL c-ODI; (g) HDL-c-ODI; and (h) Triglyceride-ODI. The data were adjusted for age, body mass index (BMI), fasting glucose, insulin resistance and mean arterial pressure as continuous variables and sex, smoking status and alcohol consumption as categorized variables, with the inclusion of the ODI in (a–d) and, MAI in (e–h). LDL-c: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-c: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; MAI: microarousal index; ODI: oxygen desaturation index.
