C-reactive protein–triglyceride glucose index for the detection of the severity of coronary artery disease in different glucose metabolic states in patients with H-type hypertension

Abstract Background The C-reactive protein–triglyceride glucose index (CTI) is a novel composite biomarker that integrates inflammation and insulin resistance. However, its association with the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with H-type hypertension under d...
