The association of triglyceride-glucose and triglyceride-glucose related indices with the risk of heart disease in a national cohort study
In the national population study, higher TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR indices were significantly associated with an increased risk of heart disease, with TyG-BMI and TyG-WC showing stronger correlations. While this association was evident in non-T2D patients, only TyG-BMI was associated with heart disease incidence in T2D patients, underscoring the necessity for further investigation.
