Table 1. Multivariate association of plasma lipid species with blood pressure.

Shown here are statistically significant results for at least one of the following three traits – systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure. Full results for all 319 lipid species are shown in Table S 1. Statistically significant results are shown in bold.
