Figure 2.

Univariate associations for proteinuria expressed as the urine protein/creatinine ratio: 1a) plasma TG AUC, 1b) plasma TG iAUC, 1c) plasma apoB-48 AUC and 1d) plasma apoB-48 iAUC. An increasing degree of proteinuria was associated with greater AUC for each, indicating impaired clearance of TG and chylomicron remnants. Incremental AUC adjusts for the baseline associations that are also present. Not shown: proteinuria and GFR were not independently associated with TG or apoB-48 AUC.
