The predictive value of C-reactive protein-triglycerides-glucose index-waist-to-height ratio for stroke: a nationwide cohort study

Key Points

The study aims to evaluate how well the CTI-WHtR predicts stroke risk.
Nationwide cohort study design
Analysis of the association between CTI-WHtR and stroke events
Monitoring of CTI-WHtR levels in individuals
Significant positive correlation identified between CTI-WHtR and stroke risk
Indicates potential for CTI-WHtR as a clinical indicator for elevated stroke risk

Abstract

The consistent positive linear association between CTI-WHtR and stroke risk highlights its potential utility as a clinical and public health indicator. Monitoring and maintaining optimal CTI-WHtR levels may aid in identification of individuals at elevated stroke risk. Graphical Abstract.
