Triglyceride-Glucose Index and 30-day mortality in pediatric sepsis: a retrospective cohort study based on PIC database
In pediatric patients with sepsis, a higher TyG index was associated with a lower 30-day mortality rate. This finding suggests that the TyG index shows potential for being related to short-term survival rates in children. Future studies need to further explore the interaction between the TyG index and other potential prognostic factors, and verify its value in larger or more diverse populations.
