After correcting for confounding variables (including age, sex, BMI, SBP, DBP, ALT, AST, sCr, smoking status, drinking status, and family history of diabetes), the findings indicated that the TG/HDL-c ratio was also positively associated with diabetes risk (HR = 1.109, 95% CI: 1.034–1.190, P = 0.004) (Table 5). This evidence concerns the gene GPT and diabetes mellitus.
