Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide, and inflammation is a significant factor in its development. While the hemoglobin-to-red blood cell distribution width ratio (HRR), an indicator of inflammation, has been linked to various diseases, its association with CAD is not well established.
Methods: We conducted an analysis using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning from 2011 to 2018.
