FABP4 and Stroke: We therefore next looked at the combinations of tertiles of SSS score and FABP4 (Figure 5E) and found that the combination of high FABP4 and high stroke severity (ie. tertile 3) gave a high HR in relation to all cause (HR 3.20 95%CI = 1.61−6.34; P = 0.001) and CV (HR 4.53 95%CI =  1.96−10.47; P<0.001) mortality in univariate analysis.
