  1. Model I adjusts for location of the lesion, histological types, stage of cancer, HDL-C, and apolipoprotein E. Model II adjusts for gender, location of the lesion, histological type, smoking, SBP, hemoglobin, neutrophil percentage, PT, APTT, CRP, ALT, triglyceride, HDL-C, apolipoprotein B, and apolipoprotein E. LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; EBB endobronchial biopsy; SBP, systolic blood pressure; PT, prothrombin time; APTT, activated partial thromboplastin time; CRP, C-reactive protein; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol
