Corresponding values for apolipoprotein B were 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, and 6 mg/dL in individuals without diabetes, respectively, and 17, 16, 16, 16, 17, 18, 24, and 26 mg/dL in individuals with diabetes, respectively.

Using multivariate prediction models adjusting for nonlipid risk factors, the apolipoprotein B to apolipoprotein A-I ratio was comparable with other standard lipid level ratios (eg, total cholesterol to HDL) in predicting CHD, but adding the test did not add additional predictive utility.

Plasma low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and apolipoprotein B concentrations increased significantly (0.12 +/- 0.65 mmol/L, P less than 0.025; 0.06 +/- 0.12 g/L, P less than 0.0004, respectively) in the group that changed to decaffeinated coffee.

Others have proposed adding measures of apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein A-I, lipoprotein (a), or lipoprotein-associated phospholipase [A.sub.2] to the current risk prediction formulas to improve risk prediction.
Newer markers don't improve risk prediction
The most pertinent results in the comparison were the significant increase in apolipoprotein B, Ceruloplasmin, apolipoprotein A-I and transthyretin in the sera of patients of CMP compared to healthy subjects.
