UKPDS Risk Engine 10-year absolute predicted risk of developing non-fatal or fatal coronary artery disease (CAD; grey bars ) or fatal CAD ( solid bars ) in 331 T2DM males according to quintiles of log (TG)/HDL-C ranking distribution. Within each quintile, data were obtained from subsets of patients in primary cardiovascular prevention: QI: n = 83; QII: n = 59; QIII: n = 65; QIV: n = 65; and QV: n = 59. HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; TG: triglycerides. Significance of differences between quintiles: P < 0.0001 (CAD) and P = 0.0004 (fatal CAD).
