Table 4 Multivariable regression analyses showing relationships between angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) levels and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) activity with high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), glycemia and plasma lipids in 77 subjects (41 subjects with and 36 subjects without Type 2 diabetes mellitus)

From: Plasma angiopoietin-like 4 is related to phospholipid transfer protein activity in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects: role of enhanced low grade inflammation

  1. Model A: relationship of plasma ANGPTL4 with PLTP activity with hsCRP not being included as dependent variable
  2. Model B: relationship of plasma ANGPTL4 with PLTP activity with hsCRP being included as dependent variable
  3. β: standardized regression coefficient, NEFA: non-esterified fatty acids, T2DM Type 2 diabetes mellitus. ANGPTL4, hsCRP and triglycerides are loge transformed
