Comparison of nine insulin resistance surrogates for predicting cardiovascular disease: a cohort study
Among nine IR surrogates, the TyG index exhibited the highest predictive performance for incident CVD in Chinese middle-aged and older adults. Acknowledging limitations such as the observational design and self-reported outcomes, our findings support the TyG index as a simple, powerful, and clinically accessible tool for early CVD risk prediction.
