Table 2 Molar ratios of lipids to apoA-I in the four HDL subfractions. Data in the first row are mean lipid to apoA-I molar ratios +/− SD. The second row of each analyte shows the significance values from a post-hoc pairwise comparison versus the E-CIII- fraction. The third row of each analyte shows the proportion of each lipid in that fraction as a percentage of the total mass of such lipid in HDL. The last row shows the significance value from a global one-way ANOVA for the analysis of lipid to apoA-I molar ratios by subfractions
