The triglyceride-glucose index trajectories are associated with cardiovascular diseases in people living with HIV: evidence from a prospective cohort study in China, 2005–2022
Higher baseline TyG index levels and the high-increasing trajectory were significantly associated with increased CVD risk in PLWH. These findings underscore the TyG index as a valuable marker for CVD risk assessment in PLWH, particularly in male populations. Incorporating TyG index monitoring into routine clinical assessments could enhance risk stratification and inform tailored prevention strategies. Further studies are needed to validate these findings in other cohorts and to explore their applicability in women.
