Association of lower total bilirubin level with statin usage: the United States National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2008.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Although many studies have reported that elevated serum triglycerides to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG-HDL) ratios constitute a risk for insulin resistance and increased arterial stiffness, no study has clarified as yet the association, in terms of the TG-HDL ratio, between diabetes and increased a...
