AC at birth (cm)	n = 146	Reference range (centiles) mg/dl	LDL (Mean)	Reference range (centiles) mg/dl	HDL (Mean)
Group I	59	LDL	25.92	HDL	23.32
Group II	72	5th = 17	19.88	5th = 13	22.49
Group II	72	50th = 29	19.88	50th = 35	22.49
Group III	15	95th = 50	23.33	95th = 60	24.167
P value			0.019*		0.730 (NS)

*P < 0.05 statistically significant, NS not significant
