A non-fasting marker of metabolic syndrome in a high-risk population
The results support non-fasting TyG index as a practical marker of metabolic syndrome, and by extension insulin resistance, encouraging future studies evaluating non-fasting TyG index in young adults as a predictor of cardiovascular disease later in life. The high prevalence of metabolic syndrome at a young age in 22q11.2 microdeletion demonstrates the potential value of this genetic high-risk population for future prospective studies, with animal and cellular models available.
