Decoding metabolic connections: the role of salivary amylase activity in modulating visceral fat and triglyceride glucose index
These findings suggest that higher SAA may confer metabolic benefits by reducing VF, thereby indirectly influencing the TyG index. This highlights the critical role of VF in mediating the protective effects of SAA on metabolic health and provides insights into potential pathways for intervention.
