Cox proportional hazard ratios were adjusted for age, sex, race, smoking, systolic blood pressure, body-mass index, fasting glucose, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and family history of premature CHD. Standard deviations (SDs) were 15.3 mg/dL for HDL-C, 30.2 mg/dL for apolipoprotein A-I, 0.52 nm for HDL size, and 6.32 μmol/L for HDL-P.

Likelihood ratio chi2 comparing a model that adds either HDL-C, HDL size, or HDL-P to the basic risk factors of age, sex, race, smoking, systolic blood pressure, body-mass index, fasting glucose, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and family history of premature CHD.
