Association between triglyceride levels and hypertension in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: a retrospective cross-sectional study

This study is the first to demonstrate a J-shaped association between TG level and hypertension presence in patients with CAD after PCI, with an inflection point of 3.86 mmol/L. This association was more pronounced in patients with reduced EF, suggesting that in patients with cardiac dysfunction, there is a stronger association between TG levels and hypertension, which may warrant further investigation into the clinical benefits of TG management in this subgroup.3.
