Table 5. Logistic regression analysis of high remnant cholesterol.
Dependent variable is the remnant cholesterol in all models. Model 1: age, gender, CRP, and bioavailable vitamin D were used as independent variables in the controls. Model 2: age, gender, CRP, and bioavailable vitamin D were used as independent variables in T2DM patients. Model 3: age, gender, CRP, bioavailable vitamin D and T2DM were used as independent variables for the entire study group.
*p<0.05. CI: confidence interval; CRP: C-reactive protein; T2DM: type 2 diabetes mellitus.
