  1. Data are presented as median (interquartile range) or mean ± SD. VLDL-P, very-low-density lipoprotein particle; RLP, remnant lipoprotein particle; lbLDL-P, large buoyant low-density lipoprotein particle; sdLDL-P, small dense low-density lipoprotein particle; lbHDL2b-P, large buoyant high-density lipoprotein particle. P values in bold indicate significant differences (P < 0.05)
