  1. p < 0.05 means that the distribution of values in each group is not equal
  2. An asterisk means that the difference is significant when compared to the controls separately
  3. AA advanced adenoma
  4. CHO, TG, HDL-C, and apoB are expressed as medians (interquartile range). LDL-C and apoA are expressed as means ± SD
