Discussion

Observational analysis reveals that triglyceride/HDL cholesterol ratio predicts mortality in hemodialysis patients, suggesting clinical utility.

The triglyceride/HDL cholesterol ratio significantly increases mortality risk in hemodialysis patients, indicating its predictive value.
Among 586 patients, a 1.16 times increased risk of death was identified for those with a specific TG/HDL cholesterol ratio.
This observational case-control study assessed patients undergoing hemodialysis from 2019 to 2022 to evaluate mortality predictors.
Non-HDL cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio did not show statistically significant results, limiting its use in prognosis.

López-Cabrera et al. (2025) studied this question.
