Why the study?
Evidence regarding the relationship between the triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio and the risk of progression from prediabetes to diabetes remains limited.
Does a higher TG/HDL-c ratio increase the risk of incident diabetes in Chinese adults with prediabetes?
Does a higher TG/HDL-c ratio increase the risk of incident diabetes in Chinese adults with prediabetes?
There is a positive, non-linear relationship between the TG/HDL-c ratio and the risk of progression to diabetes in Chinese adults with prediabetes, suggesting a potential target for early intervention.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
TG/HDL-C ratio may aid risk stratification in prediabetes; leaves open incremental value and causality in prospective trials.
