From: Macrophage cholesterol efflux correlates with lipoprotein subclass distribution and risk of obstructive coronary artery disease in patients undergoing coronary angiography

Figure 3

Comparison of macrophage cholesterol efflux from patient derived macrophages onto exogenously added HDL2 (20 microgramm/ml; left chart) and apoA-I (10 microgramm/ml; right chart) according to CAD status. Obstructive CAD was defined as presence of lesions resulting in luminal narrowing >50% in one or more coronary artery. Displayed are average cholesterol efflux, 95% confidence interval (boxes) and standard deviation (error bar). *0 = 0.025 for cholesterol efflux to HDL2 in patients with obstructive CAD versus controls in a univariate regression analysis adjusting for age and sex.
