Associations between triglyceride-glucose index combined with waist circumference and heart failure in individuals with different body mass indices: a cross-sectional study using NHANES 2011–2020 data
The association between HF and these two indices was influenced by BMI. In normal-weight and underweight populations, higher TyG indices may imply improved nutritional status. Therefore, the TyG index should be combined with WC to assess the risk of HF. In overweight or obese populations, both indices can be used to assess the risk of HF; however, the TyG-WC index is less sensitive when used alone.
