Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease attenuates the predictive value of the triglyceride–glucose index for carotid plaque: evidence of insulin resistance-independent pathways
MASLD weakened the association between the TyG index and carotid plaque, suggesting that the underlying pathophysiology may involve mechanisms that alter or decouple the relationship between IR and atherosclerosis.
