Investigating the efficiency of novel indicators in predicting risk of metabolic syndrome in the Iranian adult population
A combination of the TyG index and WHtR (TyG-WHtR index) was better than the TyG index alone, with a higher odds ratio in predicting MetS. Due to the simplicity of these indices, cost-effectiveness, and facility at small-scale labs and being predictive of MetS risk it is suggested to include these markers in clinical practice.
