    Frequency distributions referencing criterion risk scores for (A) TC, (B) HDL-C, (C) TG, and (D) the TC:HDL-C ratio. Each graph represents the number of participants in the study population classified by level of risk based on cut-scores used for defining (A–C) acceptable and unacceptable lipid scores and (D) their interplay.
