From: A minor allele of the haplotype located in the 19q13 loci is associated with a decreased risk of hyper-LDL-cholesterolemia, and a balanced diet and high protein intake can reduce the risk

Serum LDL concentrations of participants with major, heterozygotes and minor alleles of haplotype with SNPs in the 19q13 loci. A: Balanced diet pattern (cutoff value: 75th percentiles); B: Protein intake (cutoff value: 13 energy percent (En%). Non-risk, heterozygotes, and risk alleles of each SNP were scored 0, 1, and 2, respectively, and the scores of each SNP in the haplotype were combined. The scores were divided into 3 categories (Major, Heterozygote, and Minor groups) by 0, 1–2, and 3–4, respectively. a,b,c Means without a common letter differ among the different allele groups by Bonferroni test at P < 0.05 in the low intake category. a’,b’,c’ Means without a common letter differ among the different allele groups by Bonferroni test at P < 0.05 in the high intake category
