Diagnostic value of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, ratio of triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride glucose index for metabolic syndrome in adult women / 中华健康管理学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C),ratio of triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C), and triglyceride glucose index (TyG) on metabolic syndrome (MS) in adult women.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. A total of 24 410 adult women who received health examination in health management center of the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University were selected from January 2019 to December 2021 as subjects. The subjects′ basic information, physical examination results, and laboratory examination data were collected retrospectively. The relationship between non-HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, TyG, and MS in adult women were examined using multivariate logistic regression analysis. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed and the area under the curve (AUC) were calculated to evaluate the diagnostic value of each indicator for MS in adult women.Results:Among 24 410 adult females, 800 (3.3%) were found to have MS. After adjusting for age, body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, blood uric acid, history of hypertension, history of diabetes, fatty liver, non HDL-C ( OR=1.608), TG/HDL-C ( OR=1.311), TyG ( OR=13.288) were all risk factors for MS in adult women. non-HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, and TyG, as well as their combined AUC of ROC, were 0.795 (95% CI: 0.742-0.776), 0.909 (95% CI: 0.902-0.917), 0.942 (95% CI: 0.937-0.948), and 0.944 (95% CI: 0.937-0.950), respectively. TyG had the highest diagnostic value for MS in adult women among the three indicators, the optimal cutoff value for TyG was 8.237, with a sensitivity of 93.5% and a specificity of 85.5%. Conclusion:non-HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, TyG, as well as their combination, all demonstrate good diagnostic value for MS in adult women.
