TL;DR
High sensitivity C-reactive protein showed positive association with atherogenic indices notably AIP and CRR1, and Cardiovascular health metrics showed significant association with hsCRP, age and educational status.
Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk due to chronic inflammation and atherogenic dyslipidemia. Highsensitivity C-reactive Protein (hsCRP) and the Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) have emerged as potential biomarkers for identifying cardiometabolic risk, however,...
Background: Hyperuricemia contributes to cardiovascular disease (CVD) through oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and chronic inflammation. The monocyte-to-HDL-cholesterol ratio (MHR) is a novel inflammatory biomarker reflecting the balance between pro-inflammatory monocytes and the anti-inflammatory effects of...
Background: Although many inflammatory–metabolic and anthropometric markers are used to diagnose hypertension among adults, there is little research on how these markers can be combined to detect prevalent hypertension in the Saudi population. This study investigated the discriminatory power of an inflammation-based in...
Background Prehypertension and hypertension are cardiovascular risk states. We examined whether biomarker-derived atherogenic, cardiometabolic, and adiposity indices were associated with blood pressure status in adults undergoing health examinations. Methods This hospital-based cross-sectional study included 2, 136 adu...
CTI combined with obesity indices, particularly CTI-CVAI, was associated with modestly improved predictive ability for CVD risk compared with CTI alone, and this parameter may offer incremental information for CVD risk stratification by integrating metabolic inflammation and visceral fat markers.
Background Metabolic dysfunction, including insulin resistance, inflammation, and dyslipidaemia, plays a critical role in the development of coronary artery disease (CAD). The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, the C-reactive protein-triglyceride-glucose index (CTI), and the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) are accessi...
