The prediction power of ANGPTL8 for the occurrence of TG > 1.13 mmol/L (>100 mg/dL) was quite comparable to that for the occurrence of moderate hypertriglyceridemia > 1.69 mmol/L (>150 mg/dL) [OR (95% CI) per unit increase = 1.495 (1.225–1.826), p < 0.001, R2 Nagelkerke = 0.41]. This evidence concerns the gene ANGPTL8 and hypertriglyceridemia.
