Table 2. The occurrence of CHD and lipid and lipoprotein levels divided into quartiles of apoB/apoA1 ratio in the overweight group.

aP-Value refers to difference between quartiles 1 and 4. CHD: coronary heart disease; TC: total cholesterol; TG: triglyceride; LDL-C: low density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-C: high density lipoprotein cholesterol.
