Abstract
Severity of HTG is closely related to cardiometabolic conditions, with a stepwise increase in the risk for pancreatitis, particularly if not attaining reduced triglyceride levels during the follow-up. In contrast, whereas mild-to-moderate HTG is a known established cardiovascular risk factor, very severe and extreme HTG may not further increase the risk for myocardial infarction, stroke, or mortality.
