Association Between Clinical Cut‐off Point of Each Lipid Parameter and Risk of Developing Hypertension in the Overall Study Population
| Lipid Parameters | Age‐Adjusted HR (95% CI) | Multiadjusteda HR (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|
| High TC (≥220 mg/dL) | 1.49 (1.34–1.66) | 1.16 (1.04–1.30) |
| High TG (≥150 mg/dL) | 1.77 (1.57–1.98) | 1.11 (0.98–1.25) |
| Low HDLC (<40 mg/dL) | 1.30 (1.03–1.65) | 1.01 (0.80–1.29) |
| High LDLC (≥140 mg/dL) | 1.40 (1.25–1.57) | 1.13 (1.01–1.27) |
| High non‐HDLC (≥170 mg/dL) | 1.70 (1.52–1.92) | 1.20 (1.06–1.35) |
HDLC indicates high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; HR, hazard ratio; LDLC, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride.
