Data shown are %(n) or median (inter-quartile range). P values are shown for trend of “VHR-1 vs. VHR-2 vs. Non-VHR”. ASCVD, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; VHR, very-high-risk; VHR-1, subgroup of VHR with ≥2 major ASCVD events; VHR-2, subgroup of VHR with 1 major ASCVD events and ≥2 high-risk conditions; DM, diabetes; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; CAD, coronary artery disease; BMI, body mass index; TG, triglycerides; TC, total cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; Apo, apolipoprotein.
