MACE Major cardiovascular event; OR odds ratio; CI confidence interval; apo-C3 apolipoprotein C3; high apo-C3 patients with apo-C3 > 8.5 mg/dL; %NC, percentage of plaque volume that is a necrotic core; LDL-C Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; eGFR Estimated glomerular filtration rate. *The value of OR is statistically significant with P < 0.05.
