The role of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (nhhr) in prediabetes progression and the mediating effect of BMI: a longitudinal study in China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Diabetes prevalence in China is significant, with a large proportion in the prediabetes stage. Dyslipidemia is associated with abnormal glucose metabolism, and the non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NHHR) shows potential in diabetes risk assessment, but its role in prediabetes progression is understudied.

Methods

A longitudinal study from 2011 to 2015 using CHARLS data was conducted. After exclusions, 1408 participants were included. NHHR was calculated from serum TC and HDL - C levels. Diabetes and prediabetes were defined based on standard criteria. Covariates and mediators were assessed, and statistical analyses included logistic regression and mediation analysis, and mediation analysis was conducted to evalu
