Summary: | Purpose
Published data on the association between triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in US populations are limited. We examined the association between TG/HDL-C ratio and the prevalence of CKD using US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database.
Methods
This cross-sectional study included 13,780 US adults from NHANES (1999–2006). CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 0.05).
Conclusions
Our study suggested saturated effects of TG/HDL-C ratio on the prevalence of CKD among US adults. TG/HDL-C ratio less than 6.68 was positively and independently associated with CKD. |
