Table 5.

Odds Ratio of CAC presence (Agatston Score > 0) per 1 SD elevation in lipid measure

Parameter Model OR 95% CI P-value
LDL-C Base covt 1.24 1.05 1.47 0.011
Base covt + LDL-P 0.87 0.65 1.16 0.335

Non-HDL-C Base covt 1.38 1.17 1.64 <0.001
Base covt + LDL-P 1.23 0.93 1.62 0.150

LDL-C/HDL-C Base covt 1.44 1.21 1.72 <0.001
Base covt + LDL-P 1.33 1.00 1.76 0.049

TC/HDL-C Base covt 1.54 1.29 1.83 <0.001
Base covt + LDL-P 1.48 1.16 1.90 0.002

All models were adjusted for base covariates (Base covt): age, SBP, hypertension medication (yes/no), smoking status (yes/no), diabetes (yes/no), alcohol intake, and type of CT scan (EBCT vs MDCT).

Presence of CAC was defined as an Agatston score of > 0.
