Association between hemoglobin-to-creatinine ratio and all-cause mortality in patients with coronary artery disease
Utilizing data from the nationally representative NHANES database, this study identified a nonlinear correlation between HCR and all-cause mortality in a general population of patients with CAD. Specifically, mortality risk initially decreased and subsequently increased with rising HCR levels, highlighting the broad relevance of these findings to community-based CAD management.
