Research Article: Association of Neutrophil to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio with Cardiac Ultrasound Parameters and Cardiovascular Risk: A Cross-Sectional Study Based on Healthy Populations
Abstract:
The largest cause of morbidity and mortality in the world is cardiovascular disease (CVD), which places a significant burden on the healthcare system. Atherosclerosis, which is the primary cause of CVD, is influenced by lipids and inflammation., A lipoprotein called low-density lipoprotein (LDL), which transports cholesterol into peripheral tissue cells, can oxidize to form oxidized LDL, which, when present in excess, increases the risk of atherosclerosis. High-density lipoprotein HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), on the other hand, acts as a preventative measure against atherosclerosis by moving cholesterol from bodily tissues to the liver, lowering the level of free cholesterol in plasma HDL, and minimizing the deposition of cholesterol in tissues.
