Fig. 3From: Association between serum apolipoprotein A1 and atrial fibrillation in the Chinese population: a case–control studyAPOA1 levels in different types and complications of AF. Compared to the permanent AF group and controls, APOA1 levels in the paroxysmal AF group were significantly lower in men (1.05 ± 0. 26 vs.1.08 ± 0.24 vs. 1.15 ± 0.24 g/L, P < 0.001; Fig. 3(A)) and women ( 1.18 ± 0.28 vs. 1.19 ± 0.26 vs. 1.30 ± 0.23 g/L, P < 0.001; Fig. 3(A)). However, there was no significant difference in APOA1 levels between men and women with AF complications (P > 0.05; Fig. 3(B)). Abbreviations as shown in Table 1Back to article page
