Patients were stratified into two groups according to the cut-off values calculated as median values from baseline HDL-mediated CEC (ABCA1 CEC: 22.6%; ABCG1 CEC: 3.4%; SR-BI CEC: 10.4%; respectively). Values are median [interquartile range]. *, P<0.05; **, P<0.01; ***, P<0.001. ABCA1 CEC, ATP-binding cassette transporter A1-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity; ABCG1 CEC, ATP-binding cassette transporter G1-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; SR-BI CEC, scavenger receptor B type I-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity; T-Cho, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride.
