Ancestral and environmental patterns in the association between triglycerides and other cardiometabolic risk factors

31 Mar 2023

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: West Africans and African Americans with substantial (∼80%) West African ancestry are characterized by low levels of triglycerides (TG) compared to East Africans and Europeans. The impact of these varying TG levels on other cardiometabolic risk factors is unclear. We compared the strength of association between TG with hypertension, blood pressure, BMI, waist circumference, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and...
