Association between Triglycerides to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio and Death Risk in Diabetic Patients with New-Onset Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Retrospective Cohort Study in the Han Chinese Population

Background and Aims: The incidence of diabetes mellitus has reached an alarming level. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause mortality in diabetic patients. However, association between ratio survival outcomes patients with (DM) new-onset acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains unknown. This study aimed to assess TG/HDLC risk death Han Chinese population. Methods: Data this were retrospectively collected from January 2016 December type 2 (T2DM) ACS Tianjin Chest Hospital. Patients classified according baseline ratio. Kaplan-Meier curves used demonstrate outcomes. Univariate multivariate Cox proportional regression analyses evaluate hazard ratios 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for death. Subgroup analysis was determine presence any interaction. Results: In total, 152 died, 98 them heart disease. curve showed that there no significant differences both all-cause cardiac Median 1 log-rank test. Multivariate revealed adjusted increased significantly (p < 0.05) increasing median not only death, but also nonfatal stroke, fatal stroke MI. risks similar among subgroups > 0.05). Conclusions: An elevated (TG/HDLC >1.522) associated ACS. Therefore, may be a beneficial parameter prognosis high-risk
