From: The association of very-low-density lipoprotein with ankle-brachial index in peritoneal dialysis patients with controlled serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level

Figure 1

Cholesterol proportions in different lipoprotein fractions to total cholesterol level in low-ABI group compared with those in high-ABI group. Average proportion of cholesterol level in each lipoprotein fraction to total cholesterol level is indicated in the graph. The values are compared between the groups by the t-test and Mann–Whitney U test as appropriate. *, p<0.05. Abbreviations: proportion, average of the proportion of cholesterol level in each lipoprotein fraction to total cholesterol level; High-ABI group, group of patients with high ABI (ABI>0.9); Low-ABI group, group of patients with low ABI (0.9 or low); CM, chylomicron; F3-20, Fractions 3–20.
