Influence of high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels on circulating monocytic angiogenic cells functions in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The general linear model (GLM), as an extension of the linear multiple regression for a single dependent variable (each parameter exploring MACs function), has been employed to verify whether HDL levels (the categorical independent factor) still has an effect, beyond the effects of covariates for which significant (or marginally significant) differences have been observed in low-HDL as compared to high-HDL individuals (gender, age, diabetes duration, BMI, waist circumference, non-HDL cholesterol, triacylglycerol, eGFR, presence of hypertension and smoking habits).
