Associations between lipid profiles and AS markers
Cf-PWV was positively associated with both TGs and cholesterol, and cAIx
was only positively associated with HDL-C and cholesterol, but not TGs.
Non-HDL-C was positively associated with both cf-PWV and cAIx, while the
ratio of non-HDL-C/HDL-C was just positively associated with cf-PWV
(Table 3). After adjustment for confounders, cf-PWV and cAIx positively
associated with TGs and cholesterol, respectively. Regression analysis
for HDL-C, non-HDL-C, and non-HDL-C/HDL-C ratio showed no significant
relation with cf-PWV and cAIx (Table 4).
