Associations of Prebeta‐1 HDL Upper and Lower Quintiles and Deciles With CHD
| ORs | CHD | |
|---|---|---|
| OR (95% CI) | P Value | |
| Absolute prebeta‐1 HDL quintile 1 | 1.00 (reference) | — |
| Quintile 5 | 3.20 (2.07–4.94) | <0.001 |
| Percent prebeta‐1 HDL quintile 1 | 1.00 (reference) | — |
| Quintile 5 | 2.70 (1.72–4.24) | <0.001 |
| Absolute prebeta‐1 HDL decile 1 | 1.00 (reference) | — |
| Decile 10 | 4.00 (2.11–7.58) | <0.001 |
| Percent prebeta‐1 HDL decile 1 | 1.00 (reference) | — |
| Decile 10 | 2.79 (1.44–5.42) | 0.002 |
Data from both cohorts for those not taking lipid medication. Adjusted ORs and 95% CIs for upper and lower quintiles and deciles of both absolute prebeta‐1 HDL and percent prebeta‐1 HDL (percent of total plasma apolipoprotein AI). ORs were determined by logistic regression and adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, ethnicity, hypertension, current smoking status, type 2 diabetes mellitus, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and apolipoprotein AI. CHD indicates coronary heart disease; HDL, high‐density lipoprotein; LDL, low‐density lipoprotein, and OR, odds ratio.
