HDL-C, High-density lipoprotein cholesterol; MEHWC, Manganese-exposed workers healthy cohort; No achieving LDL-lowering targets b, According to the Chinese guideline-2016 Chinese Guideline for the Management of dyslipidaemia in Adults [28], LDL-lowering targets were set according to individual ASCVD risk levels.
