Background: High blood pressure (BP) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a useful tool for identifying insulin resistance at an early stage and has been proposed as a cost-effective predictor for hypertension. However, available studies are limited.

The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) has been suggested as a predictive tool to identify those at risk for chronic diseases, however, its use for predicting high BP and dyslipidemia has not been thoroughly investigated. This study aimed to examine the association between SII and high BP as well as lipid markers.

The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) has been proposed as a predictive tool to identify individuals at a greater risk of diabetes. This study aims to examine the association between SII and diabetes markers.
