Combined and mediating effects of remnant cholesterol and renal function on hypertension risk in Chinese middle-aged and elderly people.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Emerging evidence indicates a potential correlation between remnant cholesterol (RC) and the development of vascular damage and hypertension. Nevertheless, the precise relationship between RC and hypertension in relation to renal function remains uncertain. The objective of this investigation was to employ a cohort design to evaluate the intricate correlation between RC and renal function in relation to hypertension.

Methods

The present investigation utilized data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), encompassing a total of 5,109 participants, for comprehensive data analysis and examination. Cox regression analysis was employed to examine the interplay among RC, renal function, and hypertension within the context of this research study
