Data are expressed as median or interquartile interval [25th–75th], n (% of total patients), or mean ± SD. P values were estimated using Student’s t-test or Mann–Whitney U-test for continuous variables and chi-square test for categorical values. BMI: Body mass index; HDL-C: High-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; LDL-C: Low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; ACS: Acute coronary syndrome.
