Fig. 1 From: Sex differences in the association of sphingolipids with age in Dutch and South-Asian Surinamese living in Amsterdam, the NetherlandsSphingolipids which concentrations increase faster by age in women than men. The sphingolipids are shown of which the plasma concentrations increase faster by age in women than in men. A significant interaction by sex means a statistically significant multiplicative interaction between age and sex with sphingolipid concentrations as the outcome at a P value < 0.05. Analyses were stratified by ethnicity. Red asterisk denotes statistically significant association between age and sphingolipid in women at a P value < 0.05. Blue asterisk denotes statistically significant association between age and sphingolipid in men a P value < 0.05Back to article page
