Abstract

ObjectivesThe relationship between non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NHHR) and hypertension remains uncertain, warranting further investigation. This study aims to elucidate the association between NHHR and hypertension.MethodsA comprehensive cross-sectional stratified survey involving 30,602 participants aged 20 years and older was conducted using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) dataset from 2001 to 2018. NHHR was calculated as [total cholesterol (TC) - high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)]/HDL-C. The relationship between NHHR and hypertension was examined using weighted multiple linear regression, smooth curve fitting, hierarchical analysis, and interaction testing.ResultsThe mean age of participants was 49.82 ± 17.64 years, with 15,266 women included. The average NHHR was 2.94 ± 0.56. A positive correlation between NHHR and hypertension was observed. Stratification of NHHR into quartiles, in the fully adjusted Model 3, revealed that individuals in the highest NHHR quartile had a 60% increased risk of hypertension for each unit increase in NHHR compared to those in the lowest quartile. Interaction tests indicated that the relationship between NHHR and hypertension remained consistent across subgroups, except for gender, age, education, and smoking status, which influenced this association.ConclusionAnalysis of NHANES data from 2001 to 2018 demonstrated a consistent positive association between NHHR and hypertension. NHHR may provide potential assistance in hypertension prevention and diagnosis.
