GPT and hypertensive disorder: In the biologic interaction analysis (Table 4), we also found that there was a higher risk of HTN in participants with both high sodium intake and elevated serum TG attributed to the synergistic interaction between them, even after adjustment for age, sex, smoking, BMI, WC, white blood cell count, hemoglobin, eGFR, fasting plasma glucose, hemoglobin A1c, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, UACR, daily alcohol intake, and dietary sodium intake (adjusted RERI = 0.022, 95% CI = 0.017–0.027; adjusted AP = 0.017, 95% CI = 0.006–0.028; adjusted SI = 1.010, 95% CI = 1.007–1.014).
