Liver-related indices

1. Liver-related indices mediate incident hypertension in humans (34.95% of the observed association).

   “AI and LI accounted for part of the observed PA–HTN association, with a stronger contribution from AI than LI (53.64% vs. 34.95%).”

1. Liver-related indices are associated with incident hypertension in humans (RR 1.21, 95% CI 1.19–1.23).

   “LI (RR = 1.21, 95% CI:1.19–1.23) were associated with a higher risk of HTN.”
