each 1 mg/dl decrease in HDL-C is associated with a 6% reduction in risk
http://plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0036166#article1.front1.article-meta1.abstract1.sec1.p1

There was an error in the second sentence of the Abstract. The correct text is, "each 1 mg/dl increase in HDL-C is associated with a 6% reduction in risk."
