At present, several composite indicators that combine hs-CRP with other lipid markers, such as triglyceride-glucose (TyG) [60] and remnant lipoprotein cholesterol [61], exist in clinical practice, but they have many limitations. Primarily, there are insufficient studies to support the reliability ...
