Fig 2. Total Serum Lipids and Lipid Transport Molecules.

(A) Box and whisker plots of total serum cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL-cholesterol and calculated LDL-cholesterol, and (B) Total serum lipoprotein apoprotein A1 and apolipoprotein B, from LE patient (n = 15) and normal cohort (n = 11) peripheral blood samples. The line within each box indicates the global median value calculated from the cohort. The generally accepted population normal range (NR) is shown within each graph (vertical line, right hand side). Statistical significance (p value) between LE and Normal (non-LE) are also shown, as determined by two-tailed t-test, not assuming equal variance.
