Fig. 1 Lipid levels in adulthood (age- and sex-adjusted least squares means) according to times at risk of dyslipidemia defined as age-, sex- and study year-specific Z-scores of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, Non-HDL cholesterol or triglycerides >80th percentile, or HDL-cholesterol <20th percentile in childhood (aged 6–21 years) in 1912 participants of the Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study. P-value for trend was significant (<0.0001) for all lipids for association between times at risk in childhood and lipid levels in adulthood. Adulthood measurements were primarily from 2011 but in case of missing data, values from 2007 or 2001 were used.
