Hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype in relation to diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases in the Indonesian and Korean populations: evidence from two national surveys
HTGW prevalence was comparable in Indonesia and Korea, but sex-specific differences suggest distinct underlying mechanisms and the need for tailored interventions. Smoking and alcohol use were key contributors, whereas physical activity was protective, underscoring modifiable lifestyle factors in phenotype expression. HTGW was consistently associated with DM and CVD across both populations, reinforcing its value as a marker of cardiometabolic risk.
