ABSTRACT: Background
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is closely related to inflammation and oxidative stress. C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR) is an inflammatory and nutritional marker, and this study aims to explore its relationship with the occurrence and prognosis of MetS.Methods
The study utilized data derived from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2010. Among the 11,669 adult participants, 4,290 (33%) were diagnosed with MetS. Multivariate logistic regression was employed to investigate the association between CAR and MetS. To assess the impact of CAR on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among people with MetS, Kaplan-Meier survival curve, Cox proportional risk model, restricted cubic spline, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were
