Table IV.
Likelihood of developing dyslipidemia in different genders by the logistic regression model.
| Gender | TC ≥5.18 mmol/l OR (95% CI) | TG ≥1.7 mmol/l OR (95% CI) | LDL-C ≥3.37 mmol/l OR (95% CI) | HDL-C <1.04 mmol/l OR (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Male (n=178) | ||||
| TSH subgroup 2 | 3.30 (0.78–13.92) | 1.35 (0.34–5.30) | 2.63 (0.67–10.29) | 0.72 (0.13–3.91) |
| TSH subgroup 3 | 9.40a (4.17–21.15) | 1.83 (0.92–3.63) | 9.60a (4.53–20.35) | 0.50 (0.21–1.19) |
| Female (n=526) | ||||
| TSH subgroup 2 | 4.60a (2.05–10.30) | 1.85 (0.88–3.88) | 2.52a (1.27–4.97) | 1.08 (0.23–5.13) |
| TSH subgroup 3 | 13.12a (7.74–22.25) | 5.50a (3.50–8.65) | 12.98a (8.11–20.78) | 0.68 (0.25–1.83) |
TSH was designated as a categorical variable; age, body mass index, uric acid and fasting glucose were taken as covariates; TSH subgroup 2 (5–30 µIU/ml) and TSH subgroup 3 (>30 µIU/ml) were compared with TSH subgroup 1 (normal level). TSH, thyroid-stimulating hormone; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglycerides; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
