Does early detection of elevated TG/HDL ratio help in framing primary preventive strategies for ASCVD in patients with prediabetes and diabetes?
Elevated TG/HDL ratio may serve as an early marker for atherosclerotic complications in prediabetic and diabetic patients, aiding in primary prevention strategies.
Diabetes Mellitus and its various complications are of a great burden to society. Diagnosing the risk factors early before the onset of these manifestations can help us in combating these major issues. One of the risk factors among them is raised TG/HDL ratio. Early detection of elevated TG/HDL in prediabetics may serve in early detection of atherosclerotic complications and help physicians in framing primary preventive strategies for tackling ASCVD in patients with prediabetes and full-blown Diabetes.
