The relationship between lipid risk score and new-onset hypertension in a prospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Dyslipidemia and hypertension are both important risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. However, the relationship between dyslipidemia and incident hypertension remains to be elucidated comprehensively. The main purpose of this study was to construct the lipid risk score to explore the risk prediction effect of integrated lipid indices on new-onset hypertension.

Methods

This prospective cohort study with 2116 non-hypertensive subjects was conducted from 2009 to 2020. New hypertension events during the follow-up period were recorded and verified. The lipid risk score was calculated by summing coded total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol weighted with corresponding effect size
