- Study investigates the association between estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in metabolically healthy adults.
- Data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study included 4,999 participants aged ≥45 without metabolic syndrome at baseline.
- Higher eGDR levels were independently linked to lower risks of CVD (HR=0.47), stroke (HR=0.39), and heart disease (HR=0.51).
- Restricted cubic spline analysis showed a significant linear association between eGDR and CVD risks.
- The study suggests eGDR as a potential marker for CVD risk in metabolically healthy individuals.
