A total of 2224 Chinese hypertensive patients with OSA without a history of MI were included in this study. Hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were estimated using multivariable Cox proportion hazard models. A generalized additive model was used to identify nonlinear relationships. Additionally, we performed hierarchical analysis and test for interaction.Results: During a median follow-up of 7.15 years, 85 incidents of MI developed. Overall, there was a positive association between TyG-WC and the risk of first MI. In the multivariable-adjusted model, the risk of MI increased with quartiles of the TyG-WC, the HR in quartile 4 versus quartile 1 was 4.29. A generalized additive model and a smooth curve fitting showed that there existed a similar J-shaped association between TyG-WC and the risk of first MI, with an inflection point at about 785.Conclusion: Elevated levels of the baseline TyG-WC are associated with an increased risk of first MI. This finding indicates that the TyG-WC might be useful to identify the high risk of first MI in Chinese hypertensive patients with OSA.Keywords: triglyceride glucose index-waist circumference, myocardial infarction, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnoea, cohort study
