Independent association of TG/HDL-C with urinary albumin excretion in normotensive subjects in a rural Korean population
The ratio of triglycerides (TG, mg/dl) to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C, mg/dl) is a reliable indicator of insulin resistance and atherosclerotic diseases in some ethnic groups. This study is performed to examine the association between TG/HDL-C and albuminuria. This cross-sectional st...

Zusammenfassung: | The ratio of triglycerides (TG, mg/dl) to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C, mg/dl) is a reliable indicator of insulin resistance and atherosclerotic diseases in some ethnic groups. This study is performed to examine the association between TG/HDL-C and albuminuria.
This cross-sectional study included 9094 adult subjects (4091 men, 5003 women) who were enrolled in the Korean Genomic Rural Cohort (KGRC) and aged 40years or more. Albuminuria was defined as a urine albumin/creatinine ratio≥30mg/g. Participants were categorized into TG/HDL-C quartile.
Compared to the lowest TG/HDL-C quartile ( |
