- Means (sd) for TC, HDL-C, TC/HDL-C and non-HDL-C by quintiles of TC/HDL-C category and non-HDL-C category (in italics). N = 6537 and IHD = 551
- TC, total cholesterol, HDL-C, high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol, TC/HDL-C, total-cholesterol-to-HDL-C ratio, non-HDL-C, total-cholesterol minus HDL-C
- p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant
