Typical is the Austrian Vorarlberg study with top mortality in the bottom qu...
متن کاملThe Association between Triglyceride/High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio and All-Cause Mortality in Acute Coronary Syndrome after Coronary Revascularization
AIMS High triglycerides (TG) and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are cardiovascular risk factors. A positive correlation between elevated TG/HDL-C ratio and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events exists in women. However, utility of TG to HDL-C ratio for prediction is unknown among acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS Fasting lipid profiles, detailed demographic data...

متن کاملHigh Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Mortality
In 12 years of follow-up for 2748 Framingham Heart Study participants ages 50 to 79, low levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were associated with increased mortality. For men, the relative risk of death in the first HDL-C quintiie (<35 mg/dl) as compared to the top quintiie (>54 mg/dl) was 1.9 for all causes, and 3.6 and 4.1 for death due to cardiovascular and coronary heart ...
متن کاملAll-cause and cause-specific mortality among black and white North Carolina state prisoners, 1995-2005.
PURPOSE We compared mortality rates among state prisoners and other state residents to identify prisoners' health care needs. METHODS We linked North Carolina prison records with state death records for 1995-2005 to estimate all-cause and cause-specific death rates among black and white male prisoners ages 20-79 years and used standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) to compare these observed dea...
