Combined association of the triglyceride glucose index and body roundness index with cardiovascular disease in middle-aged and elderly persons with diabetes: a CHARLS-based cohort study

This study found that high TyG index and high BRI were significantly associated with increased risk of new-onset CVD in a Chinese middle-aged and elderly diabetic population, and the combined assessment of the TyG index and BRI enhanced the prediction of CVD.
