  1. Data are expressed as percentage or mean ± SE. Comparisons between controls and SDICH cases were analyzed by χ2 test or t-test where appropriate. To convert mg/dL to mmol/L, multiply cholesterol values by 0.02586 and triglycerides by 0.011.
  2. aComparisons between genders. bAverage size in those with supratentorium SDICH.
