Prognostic Value of Triglyceride to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio (TG/HDL-C) in IgA Nephropathy Patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The triglycerides to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio is an easy-to-use atherogenic and prognostic marker which has attracted increasing attention these days. However, whether TG/HDL-C correlate with outcomes in IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients remains unknown. To clarify these issues, we conducted this study.

Methods

A total of 1146 patients from West China Hospital of Sichuan University were retrospectively analysed between 2008 and 2018.The demographic, clinical and pathological data of all patients at the time of biopsy were collected. Then, patients were divided into the high TG/HDL group (TG/HDL ≥ 1.495, N=382) and the low TG/HDL group (TG/HDL-C < 1.495, N=764) based on the optimal cut-off value of the TG/HDL-C using receive operating cur
