Remnant cholesterol inflammatory index and its association with all-cause and cause-specific mortality in middle-aged and elderly populations: evidence from US and Chinese national population surveys
Elevated RCII levels are significantly associated with increased all-cause mortality risk middle-aged and elderly populations in both the US and China. In the US population, RCII is also associated with increased risks of cardiovascular and cancer mortality. By integrating metabolic and inflammatory risk factors, RCII may serve as a valuable tool for mortality risk stratification and clinical decision-making.
