  • *Odds ratios (OR) and regression coefficients (β) were derived from logistic and linear regression analyses respectively, comparing Pro/Pro versus Ser/Ser and Ser/Pro. †Multivariable analyses were performed with adjustment for variables correlated with atherosclerosis parameters in the Bruneck cohort.
