Figure 3.

Scatterplots of apoB versus non-HDL-C at baseline (A) and following treatment with ERN/LRPT, pooled SIMVA, or pooled ERN/LRPT + SIMVA (B). The upper thresholds for the less-stringent non-HDL-C <3.36 mmol/L and apoB <0.9 g/L goals are denoted by horizontal and vertical lines, respectively. Right lower quadrant in Figure 3B shows the subjects who met non-HDL-C goal <3.36 mmol/L but did not reach apoB goal <0.9 g/L after treatment.

Abbreviations: apoB, apolipoprotein B; ERN, extended-release niacin; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LRPT, laropiprant; SIMVA, simvastatin.
