Is there an association between HDL-C levels and the risk of cardiovascular events in male patients with hypertension?
Male patients with hypertension
HDL-C levels (specifically high HDL-C)
Cardiovascular eventshard clinical

Our data demonstrate that there is a U-shaped association between HDL-C and the risk of cardiovascular events in male patients with hypertension.
