1 The balance between apoB and apoA-I, i.e. the apoB/apoA-I ratio, indicates cardiovascular risk; the higher the ratio, the higher is the risk G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

2 AMORIS: Fatal MI Men, n=1267: adjusted for age, TC, and TG G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

3 Odds ratio for fatal myocardial infarction in men (hatched line) and women (solid line) in relation to the apolipoprotein B (apoB)/apoA-I ratio expressed in deciles (log-plot) G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

4 Odds ratio for fatal myocardial infarction in men and women pooled together in relation to the apolipoprotein B (apoB)/apoA-I ratio expressed in deciles (log- plot) G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

5 The AMORIS study: values for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL C; x-axis) versus apolipoprotein B (apoB; y-axis) in 50–70-year-old men G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

6 Different values for LDL C correspond to values for the apoB/apoA-I ratio according to the regression line between LDL C (x-axis) versus the apoB/apoA-I ratio (y-axis) for men and women G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

7 The AMORIS study: glucose and the apoB)/apoA-I ratio versus relative risk of fatal myocardial infarction (y-axis) in men with elevated glucose values G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

8 Relative risk of fatal myocardial infarction as a function of increasing glucose values and increasing values of the apoB/apoA-I ratio in men and women G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

9 The AMORIS study: odds ratio for fatal stroke (all subtypes included) in men and women pooled together in relation to the apoB/apoA-I ratio expressed in deciles (log-plot) G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

10 The AMORIS study: odds ratio for all events related to atherosclerosis (and ischaemia) in men and women pooled together in relation to the apoB/apoA-I ratio expressed in deciles (log-plot) G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

11 The INTERHEART study: odds ratio for acute myocardial infarction in men and women pooled together in relation to the apoB/apoA-I ratio expressed in deciles (log-plot) G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

12 The INTERHEART study: PAR values for the nine risk variables measured in the trial G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

13 Clinical events and manifestations of atherosclerosis associated with high values of the apoB/apoA-I ratio independent of LDL C values and/or other conventional risk factors G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519

14 Risk of myocardial infarction in relation to increasing values of the apoB/apoA-I ratio G. Walldius and I. Jungner J. Internal Medicine 2006; 259: 493– 519
