Description
Xueyu Chen and co-authors combine two blood indices to predict cardiovascular disease in middle-aged and older adults, in this 2025 Europe PMC paper. One index reflects atherogenic lipid patterns, the other stands in for insulin resistance. Evidence on their joint value for risk sorting was limited.
Using a large Chinese aging cohort, they followed nearly seven thousand people for a median of eight years, during which more than seventeen hundred developed cardiovascular disease. Risk rose steadily across levels of the combined index. A subgroup with repeat measures let the team cluster long-term patterns of the index. Models and nomograms were built to judge how well the combined measure discriminates future cases.
