[Association of triglyceride-glucose index and cardiovascular disease in a community-based Chinese cohort].
A significant nonlinear relationship was revealed between the TyG index and CVD risk, with a threshold effect. The risk of CVD increased once the TyG index surpassed a certain threshold, with a lower threshold in women than in men. These findings suggest that cardiovascular risk prediction and interventions based on the TyG index should be gender-stratified, and early intervention for individuals under 60 years old might have important public health implications.
