  1. Values are presented as mean ± SD or median and range (10th and 90th percentiles). Differences among the subgroups were analysed using ANOVA* or Kruskall-Wallis test**
  2. TC - total cholesterol, LDL-C – low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, HDL-C – high density lipoprotein-cholesterol, TG - triglycerides, APOB - apolipoprotein B, APOAI - apolipoprotein AI, non-HDL-C - non-high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (very low-density-cholesterol + intermediate density lipoprotein-cholesterol + LDL-C)
  3. Subgroups: E2: ɛ2ɛ3 subjects; E3: ɛ3ɛ3 subjects; E4: ɛ3ɛ4 subjects
