Associations of the triglyceride-glucose index and remnant cholesterol levels with the prevalence of Carotid Plaque in patients with type 2 diabetes: a retrospective study
In patients with T2DM, both TyG index and RC levels were strongly linked to carotid plaque presence, and could serve as independent risk factors for this presence. Monitoring the TyG index and RC levels can help gain a better understanding and knowledge of carotid plaque presence in patients with T2DM, offering guidance for the clinical prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (CCVDs) in patients with T2DM.
