Incremental prognostic value of triglyceride glucose index additional to coronary artery calcium score in asymptomatic low-risk population

Incremental prognostic value of triglyceride glucose index additional to coronary artery calcium score in asymptomatic low-risk population

Abstract Background The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index has been suggested as a reliable surrogate marker of insulin resistance which is a substantial risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Several recent studies have shown the relationship between the TyG index and cardiov...
