Abbreviations: eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; hsCRP, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; MACE, major adverse cardiovascular events; TRL-C, triglyceride- rich lipoprotein cholesterol.

Data are hazard ratio (95% confidence interval). Multivariable model was adjusted for standard risk factors (i.e., age [≥ 65 and <65 years], male sex, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking status [current versus not current], myocardial infarction history, percutaneous coronary intervention history, coronary artery bypass grafting history, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, malignant disease, and peripheral artery disease), eGFR, hemoglobin A1c, hsCRP, and HDL-C at baseline.
