Serum Total Homocysteine Concentrations in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1991–1994): Population Reference Ranges and Contribution of Vitamin Status to High Serum Concentrations

Figure 2. Mean homocysteine concentrations are plotted at the median vitamin B value within each decile category. Lines represent the smoothed trend of the geometric mean across decile categories. Bars represent 95% CIs.
