The proportion of patients with MGD was unaffected by triglyceride levels, cholesterol/HDL ratio, and non-HDL cholesterol. (A) Triglyceride levels were separated into three categories: Normal (<150 mg/dL), borderline high (150–199 mg/dL), and high to very high (200 mg/dL and higher). There was a trend, although not significant, towards an increase in MGD in the borderline high and high categories (P = 0.411, chi-square test). (B) The cholesterol/HDL ratio was subdivided into normal (< 5.0) and high (>/= 5.0). There were no differences in the proportion of MGD to non-MGD dry eye patients with normal or high ratios (P=0.649, chi-square test). (C) Non-HDL cholesterol was subdivided into normal (95–160 mg/dL), high (161 mg/dL and higher), and low (< 95 mg/dL). There were no differences between groups (P = 0.680, chi-square test).
