Associations between insulin resistance and low back pain risk in US adults: a cross-sectional study
Insulin resistance is associated with an increased risk of low back pain. The HOMA-IR, TyG, TyG-WC, TyG-BMI, and TyG-WtHR all showed a stable correlation with low back pain. TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WtHR are more stable in their associations with low back pain than TyG alone.
