Objective:To explore the relationship between triglyceride high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio(TG/HDL-C)and the risk of hypertension and diabetes in the elderly.Methods:The 263 859 people aged 60 years and above who participated in the physical examination in 2023 were selected from the basic public health system of Sanming City,and were divided into five groups according to the quintile of TG/HDL-C baseline level.Regres-sion analysis was used to study the correlation between TG/HDL-C and the risk of hypertension and diabetes.Re-sults:In this study,the prevalence of hypertension was 47.6%,the prevalence of diabetes was 15.1%,the preva-lence of hypertension and diabetes was 10.5%,and the proportion of women was 52.7%.The increase of TG/HDL-C is closely related to hypertension,diabetes and the increased risk of hypertension and diabetes comorbidi-ty.TG/HDL-C highest quintile array has a higher risk of hypertension,diabetes,hypertension and diabetes co-morbidity.Conclusion:In the elderly,the increase of TG/HDL-C is closely related to the increase of the preva-lence of hypertension and diabetes.The control of TG/HDL-C may be of great significance for the prevention and treatment of hypertension and diabetes.
