At fixed values of covariates in the final fitted model of logistic regression, hypertensives in the highest ApoB/ApoA1 ratio quartile had nearly twice the odds of MS compared with those in lowest quartile of ApoB/ApoA1 ratio (OR = 1.99, 95% CI 1.37;3.22, p < 0.001). This evidence concerns the gene APOA1 and myeloid sarcoma.
