OBJECTIVE: Metabolic - associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a common hepatic disorder with increasing prevalence, and early detection remains inadequately achieved. This study aims to explore the relationship between the non-high-density lipopro...
BACKGROUND: Surrogate insulin resistance (IR) indices are simpler and more practical alternatives to insulin-based IR indicators for clinical use. This study explored the association between surrogate IR indices, including triglyceride-glucose index ...
BACKGROUND: The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is considered an important marker of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular risk. However, its potential role in predicting length of stay (LOS), especially in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular...
Insulin resistance (IR) is the core for type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. The homeostasis assessment model is a straightforward and practical tool for quantifying insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Multiple adaptive regression spline (MARS) is a mac...
BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis of hypertension (HT) is crucial for preventing end-organ damage. This study aims to identify the risk factors for future HT in young individuals through the application of machine learning (ML) models.
BACKGROUND: Low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) is used as a threshold and target for treating dyslipidemia. Although the Friedewald equation is widely used to estimate LDL-C, it has been known to be inaccurate in the case of high triglycerid...
BACKGROUND: Numerous studies have revealed the relationship between lipid expression and increased cardiovascular risk in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. Nevertheless, few investigations have focused on the risk stratific...
BACKGROUND: Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a target for cardiovascular prevention. Contemporary equations for LDL-C estimation have limited accuracy in certain scenarios (high triglycerides [TG], very low LDL-C).

AIMS: Physical activity has consistently been shown to improve cardiovascular health and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels. However, only small and heterogeneous studies have investigated the effect of exercise on high-density lipoprotein f...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune-inflammatory, metabolic, and nitro-oxidative stress (IM&NO) biomarkers as predictors of disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. A total of 122 patients with MS were included; their disability w...
