Association between LDL-C/HDL-C ratio and long-term carotid plaque risk in middle-aged and elderly rural populations: a prospective population study
The research results indicate that there is a non-linear positive correlation between LHR and the long-term risk of carotid plaques in middle-aged and elderly populations, suggesting that LHR may be an effective indicator for screening carotid plaques in grassroots middle-aged and elderly populations.
