UNASSIGNED
This study aims to investigate the associations of different (low/medium/high) levels of fasting triglyceride (TG) levels with cardiovascular endpoints.
UNASSIGNED
This cohort study comprised of in-service and retired employees of the Kailuan Coal Mine Group, who participated in the health examination conducted in 11 hospitals in the Kailuan region from June 2006 to October 2007 (n=100,271). The study population was divided into five groups according to different TG levels. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with elevated TG, and Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to analyze the effects of different TG levels on endpoint events.
UNASSIGNED
After a median follow-up of 7 years, 961 patients developed MI and 3,142 subjects died. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that elevated TG, an age of ≥65 years old, body mass index (BMI) >25 kg/m2, fasting blood glucose (FBG) ≥6.1 mmol/L and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) <1.5 mmol/L were all risk factors for MI (P<0.05). Furthermore, Cox proportional hazards regression model revealed that after controlling for gender, age and other factors, with the increase in TG level, the relative risk of MI also increased. Compared to the TG1 group, the risk of MI increased to 1.32 folds in the TG4 group (95% CI: 1.05-1.66, P=0.018) and 1.61 folds in the TG5 group (95% CI: 1.21-1.93, P=0.004). Furthermore, the risk of MI combined with all-cause death and all-cause death also increased, but the differences were not all statistically significant.
UNASSIGNED
In the study population of the Kailuan region, elevated fasting TG increases the risk of MI, particularly in populations with an age of ≥65 years old, BMI >25 kg/m2, FBG ≥6.1 mmol/L and HDL-C <1.5 mmol/L.
