  1. Odds ratios are expressed per standard deviation increase in each continuous risk factor. Highlighted variables are independent risk predictors of subclinical atherosclerosis admitted by stepwise selection into the multivariable logistic regression models. OR, Odds ratio; CI, Confidence interval; iAUC, incremental area under curve; Cmax, Peak concentration; LDLC3, Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDLC4, High-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
  2. Significant values are in bold.
