Association between TyG index and risk of carotid atherosclerosis in NAFLD patients: a retrospective cohort study
In individuals diagnosed as NAFLD, the possibility for CAS escalates with the elevation of the TyG value. Therefore, the TyG index is an effective marker for assessing the risk of CAS within this demographic. Large-sample prospective studies are needed to confirm this conclusion in the future.
