Figure 1 Comparison of the anti-Ox-LDL titer among the progression group, the no-change group and the regression group. The titer was higher in the progression group than in the regression group or the no-change group. There was no significant difference in the antibody titer between the regression group and the no-change group.

Figure 2 Correlation between the Gensini score and the antibody against oxidized low density lipoprotein (anti-Ox-LDL) titer (left) and between the Progression-Regression score and the antibody titer (right). The anti-Ox-LDL titer did not correlate with the Gensini score, but correlated with the Progression-Regression score.
