Association between triglyceride-glucose index and cardiovascular disease in US adults with chronic kidney disease: a population-based study
TyG index was identified to be independently and positively related to the likelihood of CVD, specifically in populations with an eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m². The association had a threshold effect. The results highlight the potential of the TyG index as a tool for screening and risk assessment of CVD in populations suffering from CKD, warranting further investigation.
