Cholesterol parameters in the overall cohort before and after intervention
Baseline parameter | Preintervention (n=896) | Postintervention (n=862) | P value |
Total cholesterol, mmol/L | 5.69±2.53 | 5.46±1.09 | 0.011 |
HDL, mmol/L | 1.55±0.47 | 1.53±0.61 | 0.343 |
LDL, mmol/L | 3.37±1.06 | 3.33±1.78 | 0.625 |
TG, mmol/L | 1.67±1.95 | 1.60±1.30 | 0.370 |
The above cholesterol parameters are before starting LDL-lowering drugs or the last lipid profile if the patient was not on pharmacological therapy.
HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; TG, triglycerides.
