Jiao ZY, et al. - In this cohort study, researchers examined the associations of different (low/medium/high) levels of fasting triglyceride (TG) levels with cardiovascular endpoints in in-service and retired employees of the Kailuan Coal Mine Group, who participated in the health examination conducted in 11 hospitals in the Kailuan region from June 2006 to October 2007 (n=100,271). Cox proportional hazards regression analysis and logistic regression analysis were carried out. They found that the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) was increased due to elevated fasting TG. This was particularly observed in populations with an age of ≥65 years old, body mass index >25 kg/m², fasting blood glucose ≥6.1 mmol/L and high density lipoprotein cholesterol <1.5 mmol/L.
