Background: The prevalence of hypertension among the Tibetan population in Tibet is higher than in other regions of China, and there is a lack of unified epidemiological surveys. This study aims to conduct a standardized epidemiological investigation to assess the current status of hypertension among the Tibetan population, as well as to explore the dose-response relationship between cholesterol (TC), triglyceride glucose index (TyG), triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI), and hypertension in this population.
Methods: From June 2020 to July 2023, a total of 5042 Tibetans aged 18 to 80 years from three cities and one region in Tibet were randomly sampled for the study.
