U-shaped association of uric acid to HDL cholesterol ratio (UHR) with ALL-cause and cardiovascular mortality in diabetic patients: NHANES 1999-2018.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the relationship between the uric acid to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (UHR) and ALL-cause and cardiovascular mortality among diabetic patients.

Methods

This study utilized health data from diabetic patients included in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018. The Kaplan-Meier curves was employed to preliminarily explore the association between UHR, its components, and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in diabetic patients, as well as to analyze UHR levels and mortality across different genders. Subsequently, the Cox proportional hazards model was used to further investigate the relationship between UHR, its components, and mortality in diabetic patients. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves
