Abstract Background: Although cardiovascular diseases are among the most prominent causes of mortality/morbidity in the world, they are even more important together with comorbidities. This study aims to reveal the single/multiple effects of total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglyceride (TG) on hypertension (HT), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity accompanying coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: The data were retrospectively achieved from the records of CAD patients undergoing coronary bypass surgery at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, … Medical Center, … University. The medical knowledge discovery process (MKDP) was applied to the data concerning HT, DM, obesity, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, and TG variables. Different methods were used to determine the optimal cut-off points of lipid profiles. Logistic regression analysis (LRA) was examined the single/multiple effects of lipid profiles on HT, T2DM, and obesity. Results: TC, LDL-C, TG, and HDL-C lipid profiles categorized according to the cut-off points determined in the current study were analyzed with LRA models. LDL-C (>117 mg/dL)*TC (>191 mg/dL)*HDL-C (>37.2 mg/dL) in HT and TC (>190 mg/dL)*TG (>197) mg/dL)*HDL-C (>36.3 mg/dL) in T2DM interaction terms had a moderate effect size. LDL-C (>115 mg/dL)*TG (>197 mg/dL)*HDL-C (>36.3 mg/dL) interaction terms in T2DM and TC (>192 mg/dL)*LDL-C (>117 mg/dL)*HDL-C (>36.8 mg/dL), TK (>192 mg/dL)*TG (>193 mg/dL)*HDL-C (>36.8 mg/dL) and LDL-C (>117 mg/dL)*TG (>193 mg/dL)*HDL-C (>36.8 mg/dL) interaction terms in obesity were reported as having a high effect size. Conclusion: In conclusion, it is recommended to use the approach that analyzes the cut-off points proposed in this study for lipid profiles in predicting HT, T2DM, and obesity.
