  1. All correlations were calculated from means of values of tests duplicates in n = 87 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. apo, apolipoprotein; * equation 1: apoB100 (mg/dL) = [0.65 × non-high - density lipoprotein cholesterol (mg/dL)] + 6.3 (mg/dL); ** equation 2: apoB100(mg/dL) = − 33.12 (mg/dL) + [0.675 × low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (mg/dL)] + [11.95 × l n[triglycerides] (mg/dL)]. For correlation between estimates, values were obtained from the mean of different estimated performed on separate days.
