Triglyceride-glucose index and triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio predict the prognosis in patients with type B aortic dissection receiving thoracic endovascular aortic repair

CONCLUSIONS: Elevated baseline TG/HDL-c ratio and TG/HDL-c ≥4.11 were significantly related to a higher risk of 1-year all-cause mortality among TBAD patients undergoing TEVAR. At the same time, the low TG/HDL-c ratio was also independently associated with 1-year all-cause mortality. Special attention should be paid to TBAD patients with a higher or an overly low TG/HDL-c ratio.PMID:38617790 | PMC:PMC11009597 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-23-1411
