CI, confidence interval; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; OR, odds ratio; RC, remnant cholesterol.
* The different concordant/discordant groups based on LDL-C 118 mg/dL and RC 20 mg/dL cut-points.
† Model1: adjusted for age (continuous), sex (male/female), race/ethnicity (non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic black, Mexican American, other), educational level (less than high school, high school or equivalent, college or above), family income-poverty ratio (≤1.0, 1.1-3.0, >3.0), smoking status (never smoker, former smoker, current smoker), and alcohol drinking (non-drinker, low to moderate drinker, heavy drinker).
‡ Model 2: further adjusted (from Model 1) for chronic kidney disease (yes or no), diabetes mellitus (yes or no), and coronary heart disease (yes or no).
§ Model 3: further adjusted (from Model 2) for eGFR (continuous), FBG (continuous), and HbA1c (continuous).
All estimates accounted for complex survey design.
