Long-term burden and increasing trends of body mass index are linked with adult hypertension through triglyceride-glucose index: A 30-year prospective cohort study. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2024; 34:2134-2142. [PMID: 39003135 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2024.05.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 05/04/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Insulin resistance (IR) has previously been associated with hypertension, and obesity is a risk factor for IR and hypertension. There is likely an association between body mass index (BMI) and risk for hypertension through the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index but this relationship remains uncharacterized. METHODS AND RESULTS This study is based on the Hanzhong Adolescent Hypertension Cohort, which is an ongoing prospective study established in 1987. The TyG index was calculated as ln [fasting triglyceride (mg/dl) × fasting plasma glucose (mg/dl)/2]. The total area under the curve (AUCt) and incremental AUC (AUCi) were calculated as the long-term burden and trend of BMI, respectively. We found that BMI AUCt and BMI AUCi were significantly associated with the risk of adult hypertension, both without (RR = 1.30/1.31 for BMI AUCt/AUCi) and with (RR = 1.25/1.26 for BMI AUCt/AUCi) the inclusion of the TyG index as a covariate. Importantly, mediation analysis revealed that the TyG index mediated the BMI AUCt-SBP association (19.3%), the BMI AUCt-DBP association (22.7%), the BMI AUCi-SBP association (18.5%) and the BMI AUCi-DBP association (21.3%). Furthermore, the TyG index had a significant mediating effect of 15.9% on the BMI AUCt-hypertension association and 14.9% on the BMI AUCi-hypertension association. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that the TyG index plays an important mediating role in the association between the cumulative burden and increasing trends of BMI originating in childhood and the risk of hypertension in midlife. We emphasize that early weight management has the potential to reduce the burden of hypertension caused by IR. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study was clinically registered at the ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02734472) and approved by the Academic Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University (XJTU1AF2015LSL-047).

[PMID: 39003460 PMCID: PMC11245865 DOI: 10.1186/s12940-024-01103-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Brominated Flame Retardants (BFRs) have attracted widespread concern due to their environmental persistence and potential toxicity. This study aims to examine the association between BFRs exposure and hypertension. METHODS We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning 2005 to 2016 for the cross-sectional analysis. To evaluate the individual and combined impacts of BFRs exposure on hypertension, we utilized multivariate models, including generalized additive models, weighted quantile sum (WQS) regression, and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) models. RESULTS 9882 individuals (48% male) aged ≥ 20 were included in the final analysis, of whom 4114 had hypertension. After controlling for potential covariates, higher serum concentrations of PBDE100 (OR: 1.26; 95% CI: 1.01, 1.57) and PBDE153 (OR: 1.50; 95% CI: 1.18, 1.88) were significantly associated with hypertension. A nonlinear relationship between PBDE28 and hypertension was observed (P = 0.03). Moreover, BFRs mixture were positively associated with the prevalence of hypertension in both the WQS (β:1.09; 95% CI: 1.02, 1.17; P = 0.02) and BKMR models. CONCLUSION Our study suggested that BFRs exposure is positively associated with hypertension in the general population. To confirm this association and elucidate the mechanisms, further research is required.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have found that obesity is closely related to gastrointestinal cancer (GIC), but there is insufficient evidence to compare the relationship between various obesity indexes and triglyceride glucose index with GIC. Methods This study analyzed the relationship between Body mass index (BMI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), Triglyceride glucose (TyG), Triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI), Triglyceride glucose-waist circumference (TyG-Waist), Triglyceride Waist-to-Height Ratio (TyG-WHtR), Visceral adiposity index (VAI), Waist circumference (Waist), Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR), and Weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and GIC. The data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999 to 2018 was utilized. We conducted weighted multiple logistic regression to analyze the relationship between GIC and obesity indexes and subgroup analysis was carried out for further study. After that, survival analysis and restricted cubic spline (RCS)was used to analyze the relationship between various obesity indexes and the prognosis of GIC. Results Logistic regression showed that TyG [Q4 vs Q1: OR (95 %CI) = 2.082(1.016 ∼ 4.269)] and LAP [Q4 vs Q1: OR (95 %CI) = 2.046(1.010 ∼ 4.145)] were related to GIC. Survival analysis and RCS found BMI [Q4 vs Q1: HR (95 %CI) = 0.369(0.176 ∼ 0.773)], Waist [Q4 vs Q1: HR (95 %CI) = 0.381(0.193 ∼ 0.753)], and WWI [Q4 vs Q1: HR (95 %CI) = 0.403(0.188 ∼ 0.864)] were significantly related to the prognosis of GIC. Conclusion There is a complex relationship between obesity and TyG with GIC. Certain indexes may be utilized to assist patients in developing suitable prevention and lifestyle strategies.

A national study exploring the association between triglyceride-glucose index and risk of hyperuricemia events in adults with hypertension. Prev Med Rep 2024; 43:102763. [PMID: 38831965 PMCID: PMC11144831 DOI: 10.1016/j.pmedr.2024.102763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been recommended as a practical surrogate of insulin resistance (IR). However, the association between the TyG index and hyperuricemia among adults with hypertension remains to be elucidated. Methods We included and analyzed 3134 HTN patients and 4233 non-HTN participants from the cross-sectional 2013-2018 U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES). Multivariable logistic regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to explore the association between the TyG index and hyperuricemia. Stratifed analyses were performed to assess the association in populations with different subgroups of hypertension. Results The prevalence of hyperuricemia was higher in HTN patients (28.00 %) than in non-HTN participants (12.47 %). The multivariable logistic regression showed that the TyG index was significantly associated with hyperuricemia. After multivariable adjustment, higher TyG index levels were found to be associated with a higher prevalence of hyperuricemia in HTN patients (OR: 2.39, 95 % CI: 1.37-4.17, Ptrend < 0.001) and non-HTN participants (OR: 2.61, 95 % CI: 1.45-4.69, Ptrend < 0.001). Restricted cubic spline regression showed linearity of the associations between the TyG index and hyperuricemia (p-nonlinear > 0.05). In the subgroup analysis suggested that the positive association seemed to be strong among male, alcohol use, and diabetes group (P for interaction < 0.05). Conclusions TyG index, a practical surrogate of IR, was linearly and positively associated with hyperuricemia in HTN and non-HTN participants. Proactive measures are needed to prevent the comorbidity of IR-driven hyperuricemia in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM To explore the association of triglyceride glucose index-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and its dynamic changes with the risk of hypertension among middle-aged and older Chinese adults based on a large-sample prospective cohort study. METHODS AND RESULTS Participants over 45 years old and without a history of hypertension were included from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study registry. Data were collected in 2011 and followed up in 2015. TyG index and TyG-BMI were calculated as ln (triglyceride∗glucose/2) and TyG index∗BMI, respectively. We performed multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify the relationship between the TyG index, TyG-BMI and their dynamic change and the risk of hypertension. In the analyses, 3885 participants were included. After 4 years of follow-up, 1705 (43.89 %) patients developed hypertension. Logistic regression analysis revealed that after adjustments for all potential confounding factors, the highest tertile of baseline TyG index, baseline TyG-BMI, and the dynamic change in TyG-BMI were each associated with higher hypertension incidence than the lowest tertile: OR,1.38, 95 % CI, 1.17-1.63, OR,1.28, 95 % CI, 1.06-1.56, and OR, 1.26, 95 % CI, 1.07-1.48, respectively, whereas TyG index change was not. Moreover, the risk of hypertension increased with increasing levels of baseline TyG index (P for trend < 0.001), baseline TyG-BMI (P for trend = 0.013), and the dynamic change in TyG-BMI (P for trend = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS The baseline TyG index, baseline TyG-BMI, and the dynamic changes in TyG-BMI were significantly and positively associated with the risk of hypertension in Chinese adults older than 45 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) and obesity are established risk factors for hypertension, with triglyceride-glucose (TyG) serving as a recognized surrogate marker for IR. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between TyG-BMI and hypertension in the general population. METHODS A total of 60,283 adults aged ≥18 years who underwent face-to-face questionnaires, anthropometric measurements, and laboratory examination were included in this study. Multivariable logistic regression models and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were used to determine the association between TyG-BMI and hypertension. The restricted cubic spline model was used for the dose-response analysis. RESULTS After fully adjusting for confounding variables, multivariate logistic regression model showed a stable positive association between TyG-BMI and hypertension (OR: 1.61 per SD increase; 95% CI: 1.55-1.67; P-trend < 0.001). The multivariate adjusted OR and 95% CI for the highest TyG-BMI quartile compared with the lowest quartile were 2.52 (95% CI 2.28-2.78). Dose-response analysis using restricted cubic spline confirmed that the association between TyG-BMI index and hypertension was linear. Subgroup analyses showed that stronger associations between TyG-BMI index and hypertension were detected in young and middle-aged individuals (P for interaction < 0.05). ROC analysis showed that TyG-BMI index could better predict the risk of hypertension than other parameters (TyG-BMI cut-off value: 207.105, AUC: 0.719, sensitivity 65.5%, specificity 66.8%), particularly among young and middle-aged people. CONCLUSION The TyG-BMI index was independently associated with hypertension in the study population. Further studies are required to confirm this relationship.

Abstract
Objective Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL) is a representative human sensory impairment, few studies have paid attention to the correlation between the Triglyceride-Glucose (TyG) index and SNHL to date. We conducted this analysis to elucidate the correlation between the TyG index and pure tone hearing thresholds among US adults. Methods Our analysis included 1226 adults (age range: 20 to 69 years old) from the 2015-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data. TyG index was scored into three quartiles. Weighted univariate analysis, weighted multivariate linear regression analyses as well as smooth curve fittings evaluated the associations between TyG index and pure tone hearing thresholds. Results In the multiple regression analysis, the second tertile of TyG index was negatively associated with high-frequency hearing thresholds shifts. Furthermore, the non-linear relationships between TyG index and speech-frequency and high-frequency hearing thresholds were identified by smooth curve fittings. After adjusting for potential confounders, the fitted smooth curves were approximately U-shaped, and the two-segment linear regression models were constructed to calculate their inflection points. Conclusion Our findings suggested that the TyG index was nearly U-shaped association with speech-frequency and high-frequency hearing thresholds. These results may imply the importance of maintaining a balanced TyG index in health management.

J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2024; 11:128. [PMID: 38667746 PMCID: PMC11050947 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd11040128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The association between normal-range triglyceride levels and diabetes mortality remains unclear. This cohort study aimed to elucidate this relationship by examining 19,010 US adult participants with fasting serum triglycerides below 150 mg/dL. Cox proportional hazards models were employed to estimate mortality hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Participants were followed up for a mean of 15.3 years, during which 342 diabetes deaths were recorded. A 1 natural log unit increase in triglycerides was associated with a 57% higher risk of diabetes mortality (adjusted HR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.04-2.38). Comparable results were obtained when triglycerides were analyzed in quartiles. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis identified an optimal triglyceride cutoff of 94.5 mg/dL for diabetes mortality; individuals with triglyceride levels above this threshold faced a greater risk of diabetes mortality (adjusted HR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.12-1.83). Further investigation revealed a positive association between normal triglyceride levels and all-cause mortality, though no association was observed between normal triglycerides and mortality from hypertension or cardiovascular disease. In conclusion, elevated triglyceride levels within the normal range were associated with an increased risk of diabetes mortality. Individuals with triglyceride levels of 95 mg/dL or higher may require vigilant monitoring for diabetes and its associated complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have indicated that the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) index is associated with hypertension; however, evidence on the association of change in the TyG index with blood pressure and hypertension is limited. AIMS To assess the association of the TyG index with blood pressure and hypertension. DESIGN A cohort study. METHODS We included 17 977 individuals with a mean age of 60.5 years from the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort. The TyG index was calculated as ln [fasting triglyceride (mg/dl)×fasting glucose (mg/dl)/2]. Hypertension was defined as blood pressure ≥140/90 mmHg, self-reported current use of antihypertensive medication or self-reported physician diagnosis of hypertension. RESULTS In the longitudinal analyses, we found a linear dose-response relationship between changes in the TyG index and change in blood pressure. Each one-unit change in the TyG index was associated with a 1.93 (1.23-2.63) mmHg increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP) and a 1.78 (1.42-2.16) mmHg increase in diastolic blood pressure (DBP). During a median follow-up of 9.37 years, a total of 3594 individuals were newly diagnosed with hypertension. We also found a linear dose-response relationship between the TyG index and the incidence of hypertension. The hazard ratio (HR) of hypertension for each one-unit increase in the TyG index was 1.21 (1.13-1.29). In addition, the best cut-off point of TyG for predicting hypertension was 8.4797, with sensitivity, and specificity of 57.85% and 55.40%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The TyG index had a positive dose-response relationship with blood pressure and could be used to predict the risk of hypertension.

Hypertens Res 2024; 47:877-886. [PMID: 38012411 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-023-01502-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/29/2023]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the association between triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) and related parameters (TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, TyG-WHR, and TyG-WHtR) with hypertension and cardiovascular risk. Additionally, the study aimed to compare the performance of these parameters in identifying patients with hypertension and high cardiovascular risk and determine appropriate indicators for the prediction of cardiovascular risk. Residents from a community in Beijing, China, who underwent health examinations at a regional hospital between December 2011 and August 2012, were recruited. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the association between each parameter with hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to compare the predictive ability of each parameter in identifying people with hypertension or high cardiovascular risk. A total of 16,834 participants were included. After adjusting for confounders, the highest quartile groups of TyG and related parameters showed a significantly increased risk of hypertension compared to the lowest quartile groups. Among the parameters, TyG-WC exhibited the highest diagnostic efficacy for hypertension [area under the curve (AUC): 0.665, 95% CI: 0.656-0.673] followed by TyG-WHtR, TyG-BMI, TyG-WHR, and TyG index. Similarly, the highest quartile groups of each parameter demonstrated significantly increased risks of high cardiovascular risk compared to the lowest quartile groups. TyG-WHR performed best in distinguishing participants with high cardiovascular risk (AUC: 0.718, 95% CI: 0.710-0.726) followed by TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR, TyG-BMI, and TyG index. In conclusion, TyG-related parameters had independent associations with hypertension and cardiovascular risk. TyG-WHR exhibited the highest efficacy in distinguishing participants with high cardiovascular risk, which might contribute to the primary prevention of CVD.

Abstract
AIM Insulin resistance (IR) may participate in the pathogenesis of hypertension by mediating low-grade systemic inflammation. The triglycerides-glucose (TyG) index has recently been suggested as a reliable alternative biochemical marker of IR compared with traditional methods. Herein, we speculated TyG index may also be associated with hypertension. METHODS Data of adults were extracted from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) in 2009-2015 in this retrospective cohort study. The TyG index was calculated using the formula: TyG = Ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dL) ×fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2]. Associations between TyG index and hypertension were evaluated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses with odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgroup analyses of age and gender were also performed. In addition, we assessed the interaction effect between TyG index and body mass index (BMI) on hypertension in participants with different age and gender. RESULTS Among 3,413 eligible participants, 1,627 (47.67%) developed hypertension. The average TyG index in hypertension group and non-hypertension group was 8.58 and 8.39 respectively. After adjusting for covariates, we found that compared with participants with TyG index ≤ 8.41 (median value), those who had higher TyG index seemed to have higher odds of hypertension [OR = 1.17, 95%CI: (1.01-1.37)]. Similarly, this association was also discovered in participants who aged ≤ 65 years old [OR = 1.19, 95%CI: (1.01-1.39)] or were female [OR = 1.35, 95%CI: (1.10-1.65)]. Additionally, there was a potential additive interaction effect between obesity and TyG index on hypertension. CONCLUSION High TyG index was associated with high odds of hypertension in general population in China, but the causal relationship between them needed further exploration.

A higher TyG index level is more likely to have enhanced incidence of T2DM and HTN comorbidity in elderly Chinese people: a prospective observational study from the reaction study. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2024; 16:29. [PMID: 38287450 PMCID: PMC10826216 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-024-01258-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/31/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Triglyceride glucose index (TyG index) was related with both type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and hypertension (HTN). Prospective studies linking the TyG index to the incidence of T2DM and HTN comorbidity remain unclear. This study aimed to to explore the longitudinal association between TyG and new-onset T2DM with HTN. METHODS 4,434 subjects (1249 males and 3185 females) without initial T2DM and HTN were followed up for 7 years. This study was conducted from November 2011 to August 2018 in the Gucheng, Laoshan and Jinding communities of Beijing. The incidence of T2DM with HTN during the 7-year follow-up was identified as the endpoint. The TyG index was divided into four quartiles: the < 25% level, the 25-50% level, the 50-75% level and the ≥ 75% level. The relationships between the TyG index and T2DM with HTN were evaluated by Cox proportional hazards regression models. RESULTS During 7 years, the augmented trend of T2DM with HTN was observed in the participants. After adjusting for all confounding factors, compared with those in the lowest quartile of TyG index, the population in the highest quartile of TyG index had a higher risk of T2DM with HTN (hazard ratio (HR), 2.878; 95% confidence intervals (95% CI), 1.230-6.731, P = 0.015), however, the association remained significant only in the female population (HR 2.753, 95% CI, 1.061-7.139, p = 0.037). The TyG had superior predictive ability of increased risk of T2DM with HTN for the populations of older age (≥ 65 years) (HR 2.694, 95% CI 1.212-5.989, p = 0.015), higher eGFR (≥ 90 mL/(min·1.73 m2)) (HR 2.603, 95% CI 1.164-5.818, p = 0.020) or obesity (BMI ≥ 28 kg/m2) (HR 2.547, 95% CI 1.001-6.478, p = 0.020). CONCLUSION A population with a higher TyG index level was more likely to have an enhanced incidence of T2DM and HTN comorbidity. TyG index could have the significance of clinical in early protection against T2DM with HTN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been proposed as a surrogate marker of insulin resistance. However, the relationship between the TyG index and central blood pressure (BP), has not been well studied in adults. METHODS A total of 715 Chinese adult participants were enrolled in this study. Anthropometric and BP were assessed. The TyG index was calculated as ln[fasting triglycerides(mg/dL) × fasting glucose(mg/dL)/2]. Central BP was measured using SphygmoCor system. RESULTS The participants were stratified into three groups based on the TyG index, and significant differences were observed in metabolic and cardiovascular parameters and the prevalence of hypertension among the groups. Both brachial (β = 1.38, P = 0.0310; group highest vs. lowest, β = 2.66, P = 0.0084) and aortic (β = 2.38, P = 0.0002; group highest vs. lowest, β = 3.96, P = 0.0001) diastolic BP were significantly and independently associated with the TyG index and increasing TyG index tertile. However, there was no independent association between the TyG index and systolic BP. A one-unit increase in the TyG index was associated with a 46% higher risk of hypertension (P = 0.0121), and compared with the lowest group, participants in the highest group had a 95% higher risk of hypertension (P = 0.0057). CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates a significant and independent association between the TyG index and both brachial and aortic diastolic BP in Chinese adults. Furthermore, the TyG index was found to be an independent predictor of hypertension.

Abstract
Introduction triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a reliable surrogate marker of insulin resistance. We assessed the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and vascular risk factors and clinical outcomes of critically ill adult COVID-19 patients. Methods data from the charts of all patients with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 who were hospitalized at Mengo Hospital Uganda from December 2020 to August 2021 was used for this study. Data on demographics, past medical history, clinical presentation, laboratory findings and clinical outcomes within the first 10 days of admission was extracted. TyG index was calculated as Inverse (triglyceride (mg/dl) x fasting glucose level (mg/dl)/2 and defined vascular risk factors using standard methods. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression was conducted to establish a significant association. Statistical significance was set at p< 0.05. Results out of 314 patients, 176 (56%) were females. The mean age ± SD was 58.2 years ± 16.82. The median TyG index was 9.76 (9.29-10.33). A high TyG index was found among 85.4% (n= 268, 95% CI: 0.809-0.889) of patients. Elevated total cholesterol was in 55.4% (n=174), triglycerides 70.7% (n=222), LDL 64.7% (n=203), blood glucose 80.6% (n=253), systolic blood pressure 43% (n=135) and 24.8% (n=78) diastolic blood pressure. The majority 49.7% ( n=156) were discharged, 22.0% (n=69) needed admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), 15.3% (n=48) died in the unit and 13.0% (n=41) had a composite outcome. The TyG index was significantly associated with glycated hemoglobin (AOR=1.029, 95%CI 0.561-1.496, p<0.001), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (AOR=0.121,95%CI 0.023-0.219, p=0.016), high-density cholesterol (AOR=1.956, 95%CI 1.299-2.945, p=0.001), total cholesterol (AOR=2.177, 95%CI 1.5222-3.144, p<0.001, hospital death (AOR=0.778, 95%CI 0.623-0.972, p=0.028) and composite outcome (AOR=1.823, 95% CI 1.221-2.559, p=0.023). There was no association between hypertension and TyG index. Conclusion a high TyG index was associated with vascular risk factors and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have found that the triglyceride glucose index (TyG index) trajectories are associated with cardiovascular diseases. However, the association between the patterns of TyG index trajectories and risk for hypertension has not been investigated. In a longitudinal general population, we aimed to identify distinct TyG index trajectories over 12 years and describe their association with incidence of hypertension. METHOD Of the 15,056 adults retrospectively recruited from the Physical Examination Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University in northeast of China from 2011 to 2022. TyG index was calculated as ln (fasting TG [mg/dL] × FPG [mg/dL]/2) and the TyG index trajectories were developed using group-based trajectory modelling. Cox regression analysis was accomplished to assess the association between TyG index and incidence of hypertension. RESULTS The median age of the population was 38 years, and 7352 (48.83%) of the participants were men. Three distinct TyG index trajectories were identified: "low increasing" (N = 7241), "moderate increasing" (N = 6448), and "high stable" (N = 1367). Using "low increasing" trajectory as a reference, "moderate increasing" and "high stable" trajectory were associated with increased risk of hypertension (HR = 2.45; 95% CI 2.25-2.67 and HR = 3.88; 95% CI 3.48-4.33). After adjusting for baseline sex, age, diabetes, smoking, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, BMI, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, blood glucose, triglyceride, urea, uric acid, and glomerular filtration rate, the HR were slightly attenuate in "moderate increasing" and "high stable" trajectories to 1.38 (95% CI 1.23-1.54) and 1.69 (95% CI 1.40-2.02) respectively. Meanwhile, similar results were observed in multiple sensitivity analyses. The HR of the "moderate increasing" and "high stable" trajectory groups were 2.63 (95% CI 2.30-3.00) and 4.66 (95% CI 3.66-5.93) in female, and 1.66 (95% CI 1.48-1.86) and 2.33 (95% CI 2.04-2.66) in male. CONCLUSIONS Elevated TyG index at baseline and long-term TyG index trajectories were associated with the risk of hypertension. Early identification of increasing TyG index could provide insights for preventing hypertension later in life.

Temporal relationship between triglyceride-glucose index and blood pressure and their joint cumulative effect on cardiovascular disease risk: a longitudinal cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2023; 22:332. [PMID: 38017521 PMCID: PMC10685547 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-02058-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Concurrent insulin resistance and elevated blood pressure are commonly observed in cardiovascular disease (CVD) and have long been proposed to contribute to CVD. However, the temporal relationship between them and the effect of their cumulative co-exposure on future incident CVD remains unclear. METHODS Longitudinal analysis of data on 57,192 participants from a real-world, prospective cohort study (Kailuan Study) was performed to address the temporal relationship between Triglyceride-Glucose Index (TyG, calculated as ln [TG (mg/dL) × FBG (mg/dL)/2]) and blood pressure (BP) assessed by cross-lagged analyses in an approximately 4-year exposure period (2006/2007 to 2010/2011). After excluding 879 participants with known diabetes, 56,313 nonCVD participants were included for further analysis of the CVD outcome. Cox regression models were used to examine the hazard ratios (HRs) upon the cumulative TyG (CumTyG) and BP(CumBP) in the exposure period. RESULTS The standard regression coefficient from baseline TyG to follow-up systolic BP was 0.0142 (95% CI 0.0059-0.0226), which was greater than the standard regression coefficient from baseline systolic BP to follow-up TyG (- 0.0390; 95% CI - 0.0469 to - 0.0311). The same results were observed in the cross-lag between TyG and diastolic blood pressure [0.0271 (0.0185 to 0.0356) vs. - 0.0372 (- 0.0451 to - 0.0293)]. During a median follow-up of 9.98 years, 3981 CVD cases occurred. Significant interactions were observed between the median CumTyG (8.61) and CumSBP thresholds (130, 140 mmHg) (P = 0.0149), the median CumTyG (8.61) and CumDBP thresholds (80, 90 mmHg) (P = 0.0441). Compared to CumTyG < 8.61 and CumSBP < 130 mmHg, after adjusting for potential confounding factors, the HR gradually increased in the high co-exposure groups. The hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for Q2-Q6 were 1.39 (1.24, 1.57), 1.94 (1.69, 2.22), 2.40 (2.12, 2.71), 2.74 (2.43, 3.10), and 3.07 (2.74, 3.45). Additionally, the CVD risks in the co-exposure were more prominent in younger participants. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that elevated TyG has a greater impact on future blood pressure changes than vice versa. Dual assessment and management of insulin resistance and blood pressure contribute to the prevention of CVD, especially in younger individuals.

Cardiovasc Diabetol 2023; 22:311. [PMID: 37946205 PMCID: PMC10637002 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-02038-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prior research has established the correlation between insulin resistance (IR) and hypertension. While the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a reliable surrogate marker of IR, and uncontrolled hypertension as well as arterial stiffness among individuals with hypertension remains undisclosed. METHODS In this study, a total of 8513 adults diagnosed with hypertension from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2018 were included. The primary outcome of the study are arterial stiffness (represented with estimated pulse wave velocity, ePWV) and uncontrolled hypertension. Logistic regression model, subgroup analysis, restricted cubic spine, and smooth curve fitting curve were conducted to evaluate the association between the IR indicators and uncontrolled hypertension and arterial stiffness in individuals with hypertension. RESULTS Among included participants, the overall prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension was 54.3%. After adjusting for all potential covariates, compared with the first quartile of TyG index, the risk of uncontrolled hypertension increased about 28% and 49% for participants in the third quartile (OR, 1.28; 95% CI 1.06-1.52) and the fourth quartile (OR, 1.49; 95% CI 1.21-1.89) of TyG index, respectively. The higher OR of TyG index was observed in participants taking antihypertensive medication [fourth quartile versus first quartile (OR, 2.03; 95% CI 1.37-3.11)]. Meanwhile, we explored the potential association between TyG index and arterial stiffness and found that TyG index was significantly associated with increased arterial stiffness (β for ePWV, 0.04; 95% CI 0.00-0.08; P = 0.039). However, traditional IR indicator HOMA-IR showed no significant positive correlation to uncontrolled hypertension as well as arterial stiffness in US adults with hypertension. CONCLUSION Elevated levels of the TyG index were positive associated with prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension and arterial stiffness among US adults with hypertension.

ARQUIVOS DE NEURO-PSIQUIATRIA 2023; 81:891-897. [PMID: 37939719 PMCID: PMC10631848 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1776411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We evaluated the association between the triglyceride-glucose (TG) index, a marker of insulin resistance, and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) severity in patients without diabetes mellitus, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 1,527 patients. We used univariate and multivariate analyses to identify the independent predictors associated with OSA. RESULTS Most patients were males (81.5%) with a mean age of 43.9 ± 11.1 (15-90) years. Based on the apnoea-hypopnea index (AHI), 353 (23.1%) patients were included in the control group, whereas 32.4%, 23.5%, and 21% had mild, moderate, and severe OSA, respectively. The TG index values demonstrated significant associations with OSA patients compared with the control group (p = 0.001). In addition, the mean values of the oxygen desaturation index (ODI), AHI, minimum oxygen saturation, and total sleep time percentage with saturation below 90% demonstrated statistically significant differences among the TG index groups (p: 0.001; p:0.001; p:0.001; p:0.003). The optimal TG index cutoff value to predict OSA was 8.615 (AUC = 0.638, 95% CI = 0.606-0.671, p = 0.001). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, after adjusting for age, sex, and body mass index, the TG index was independently associated with OSA patients. CONCLUSION The TG index is independently associated with increased risk for OSA. This indicates that this index, a marker for disease severity, can be used to identify severe OSA patients on waiting lists for PSG.

Abstract
Background Triglyceride and glucose (TyG) index and TyG-related indices combined with obesity-related markers are considered important markers of insulin resistance. We aimed to examine the association between the TyG index and modified TyG indices with new-onset hypertension and their predictive ability stratified by sex. Methods and Results We analyzed data from 5414 Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study participants aged 40 to 69 years. Multiple Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were conducted to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) and 95% CI for new-onset hypertension according to sex-specific tertile groups after confounder adjustments. To evaluate the predictive performance of these indices for new-onset hypertension, we calculated Harrell's C-index (95% CI). Over a 9.5-year follow-up period, 1014 men and 1012 women developed new-onset hypertension. Compared with the lowest tertile (T) group, the adjusted HR and 95% CI for new-onset hypertension in T3 for TyG, TyG-body mass index, TyG-waist circumference, and TyG-waist-to-height ratio were 1.16 (0.95-1.40), 1.11 (0.84-1.48), 1.77 (1.38-2.27), and 1.68 (1.33-2.13) in men and 1.37 (1.13-1.66), 1.55 (1.16-2.06), 1.43 (1.15-1.79), and 1.64 (1.30-2.07) in women, respectively. The C-indices of TyG-waist-to-height ratio for new-onset hypertension were significantly higher than those of TyG and TyG-body mass index in both men and women. Conclusions TyG and TyG-body mass index were significantly associated with new-onset hypertension only in women. TyG-waist circumference and TyG-waist-to-height ratio were significantly associated with new-onset hypertension in both men and women. A sex-specific approach is required when using TyG and modified TyG indices to identify individuals at risk of incident hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate the association of triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index with hypertension and compare the discriminative power of the TyG index, lipid, glycemic parameters for hypertension using the China Health Examination Collaborative study (CHEC Study). METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN Data were collected at Ningbo Mingzhou Hospital and Beijing physical examination center from the CHEC Study during 2014 and 2021. Participants with ≥2 medical check-up times were included. The TyG index is the logarithmized product of fasting triglyceride and glucose. Generalised estimation equation (GEE) model was used to evaluate the association between the TyG index, lipid parameters, glycemic parameters and hypertension. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to explore the predictive ability of TyG index on hypertension at different years of medical check-up. RESULTS 112,902 participants with an average age of 42.8 years were recruited in the study, 36,839 participants developed hypertension over the 8-year period. GEE model analysis showed that the ORs with 95% CI of hypertension were 3.35 (3.15-3.57), 1.86 (1.76-1.95), 1.67 (1.58-1.78), 1.45 (1.33-1.58), 1.24 (1.19-1.29), 0.92 (0.86-0.99), and 1.90 (1.83-1.97) in the highest versus lowest quintiles of TyG index, TG/HDL-C ratio, TG, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C and FPG in model 2. The area under the ROC curve of the overall years of medical check-up was signifi-cantly higher than a particular year in predicting hypertension (AUC: 0.883, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS TyG index is associated with hypertension and shows the superior discriminative ability for hypertension compared with lipid and glycemic parameters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The brachial-ankle pulse-wave velocity (baPWV) is regarded as the gold standard in the evaluation of arterial stiffness. Its prognostic significance for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) has been demonstrated. However, the factors influencing the association between baPWV and MACE risk have not been determined. In this study, we investigated the association of baPWV and MACE risk and whether it is affected by the risk factors for different cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). METHODS This was a prospective cohort study that initially enrolled 6850 participants from 12 communities in Beijing. The participants were divided into three subgroups according to their baPWV values. The primary outcome was the first occurrence of MACE, defined as hospitalization from cardiovascular diseases, first occurrence of a nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke. Cox proportional hazards regression and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to examine the association between baPWV and MACE. The effect of CVD risk factors on the relationship between baPWV and MACE was explored in subgroup analyses. RESULTS The final study population consisted of 5719 participants. During a median follow-up of 34.73 months, MACE occurred in 169 participants. The restricted cubic spline analysis indicated a positive linear relationship between baPWV and MACE risk. After adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors, the hazard ratio (HR) for MACE risk per SD increase in baPWV was 1.272 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.149-1.407, P < 0.001], and the HR for MACE in the high-baPWV vs. the low-baPWV group was 1.965 (95% CI: 1.296-2.979, P = 0.001). Adding baPWV to the conventional cardiovascular risk factors significantly improved the model's prediction performance and the net reclassification (NRI) [NRI: 0.379 (95% CI: 0.072-0.710), P = 0.025] in MACE discrimination. However, in the subgroup analysis, two CVD risk factors, stable coronary heart disease and hypertension, showed significant interaction effects ( Pinteraction both < 0.05). This result indicated that the effect of CVD risk factors must be taken into account when assessing the relationship between baPWV and MACE. CONCLUSION baPWV is a potential marker to improve the identification of MACE risk in the general population. A positive linear correlation was firstly determined between baPWV and MACE risk, but it may not be valid in participants with stable coronary heart disease and hypertension.

Abstract
Background Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been reported to be associated with various cardiovascular diseases in recent years. However, the conclusive association between the TyG index and hypertension was not established in the last meta-analysis. Furthermore, it remains unclear whether a linear relationship exists between these two variables. Methods We conducted a comprehensive search of the CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data, CBM, PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, and The Cochrane Library databases up until May 10, 2023, to identify relevant studies conducted in China. We used Stata version 17.0 and Rstudio version 4.2.1 to analyze the data and assess the association between the TyG index and the risk of hypertension, as well as the dose-response relationship between these two variables. We will select either a random-effects model or a fixed-effects model based on the results of the heterogeneity tests and report 95% confidence intervals accordingly. Results In the end, our analysis encompassed 22 studies involving a total of 668,486 participants, comprising 12 cross-sectional studies and 10 cohort studies. Meta-analysis results showed: Analysis of data from China revealed that an elevated TyG index was associated with a higher risk of developing hypertension, as indicated by an OR/HR of 1.36 [95%CI (1.28-1.45) I2 = 69.0% P < 0.001]. Through meta-regression analysis of multiple covariates, we found that study type, study region, sample size, database source, and study quality score, the above five variables were able to explain 63.0% of the total heterogeneity. The results of the dose-response Meta-analysis showed: The TyG index has a linear relationship with the risk of developing hypertension, as indicated by non-significant coefficients of higher-order terms in the nonlinear model (P > 0.05). The linear trend analysis showed that for every one-unit increase in the TyG index, the risk of developing hypertension increased by 1.5 times [1.532 95%CI (1.294, 1.813) P < 0.001]. However, this result is influenced by the number of studies included in the dose-response analysis and requires further corroboration. Conclusion In the Chinese region, there was an independent association between TyG index and the risk of developing hypertension, with a linear trend. However, the results of the linear trend need to be corrected by the more number of related studies.

Abstract
Objective Triglyceride glucose (TyG) index has been suggested as an alternative indicator of insulin resistance (IR); however, the association between TyG index and suicide attempts (SA) in major depressive disorder (MDD) is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between TyG index and SA in Chinese patients with first-episode drug-naïve (FEDN) MDD. Methods This cross-sectional study enrolled 1,718 patients with FEDN MDD aged 34.9 ± 12.4 years from the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University (Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, China) from September 2016 to December 2018. Multivariable binary logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the association between TyG index and the risk of SA. A two-piecewise linear regression model was used to investigate the threshold effects if non-linearity associations existed. Interaction and stratified analyses were performed based on sex, education, marital status, comorbid anxiety, and psychotic symptoms. Results Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that TyG index was positively associated with the risk of SA after adjusting for confounders (OR = 1.35, 95% CI: 1.04-1.75, p = 0.03). Smoothing plots also showed a nonlinear relationship between TyG index and SA, with the inflection point of TyG index being 9.29. On the right of the inflection point, a positive association between TyG index and SA was detected (OR = 3.47, 95% CI: 1.81 to 6.66, p < 0.001), while no significant association was observed on the left side of the inflection point (OR = 1.14, 95% CI: 0.79 to 1.66, p = 0.476). Conclusion The relationship between TyG index and SA risk was non-linear and exhibited a threshold effect in Chinese patients with FEDN MDD. When TyG index was greater than 9.29, they showed a significant positive correlation.

BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:294. [PMID: 37301866 PMCID: PMC10257843 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03294-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2022] [Accepted: 05/11/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, a metric for estimating insulin resistance (IR), is linked with cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality among the population regardless of diabetic status. However, IR prevalence and the association between the TyG index and heart failure (HF) in Americans is unclear. METHODS The Nation Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2009-2018) dataset was used. IR was defined by homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) > 2.0 and 1.5. The TyG index was calculated as Ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dL) × fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2]. A weighted logistic regression was applied to evaluate the association between the TyG index and the prevalence of HF. RESULTS This study comprised 12,388 people, including 322 (2.6%) individuals with HF. The average prevalence of IR was found to be 13.9% and 22.7% for cutoff values greater than 2.0 and 1.5, respectively. HOMA-IR and the TyG index showed a moderate correlation (r = 0.30). There is a significant positive association between the TyG index and HF prevalence (per 1-unit increment; adjusted OR [aOR]: 1.34; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02-1.76). Patients with higher TyG values were associated with a prevalence of HF (OR:1.41; 95% CI: 1.01,1.95) (quartiles 4 vs 1-3). The TyG index is associated with a higher prevalence of dyslipidemia, coronary heart disease, and hypertension but not a stroke (cerebrovascular disease). CONCLUSIONS Our results show that IR does not considerably increase from 2008 to 2018 in American adults. A moderate correlation is noted between HOMA-IR and the TyG index. TyG index is associated with the prevalence of HF, as were other cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Overweight and obesity are well recognized as important and traditional risk factors for hypertension (HTN), but the prevalence of HTN tends to increase in non-overweight people. Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been observed to be associated with HTN. However, whether such association still persists in non-overweight people remains unclear. The aim of our cohort study was to explore the link between TyG index and incident HTN in non-overweight Chinese population. METHODS AND RESULTS As many as 4678 individuals without HTN at baseline were involved, who underwent at least two years of health check-ups in the eight-year study period and maintained non-overweight at follow-up. According to baseline TyG index quintiles, participants were classified into five groups. Compared with the 1st quantile, those in the 5th quantile of TyG index had a 1.73-fold (HR 95% CI 1.13-2.65) risk of incident HTN. The results remained consistent when analyses were restricted to participants without abnormal TG or FPG level at baseline (HR 1.62, 95% CI 1.17-2.26). Furthermore, the subgroup analyses were conducted, the risk of incident HTN was still significantly increased with increasing TyG index for subgroups of older participants (age≥ 40 years), males, females and higher BMI group (BMI≥ 21 kg/m2). CONCLUSIONS The risk of incident HTN increased with increasing TyG index among Chinese non-overweight adults, so TyG index might be a reliable predictor of incident HTN among adults maintaining non-overweight.

Abstract
The triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) has been considered an alternative marker of insulin resistance (IR). This cross-sectional study was designed to mainly investigate the association between TyG-BMI, triglyceride glucose combined with body mass index, and hypertension in Chinese adults. The relationship between TyG-BMI and hypertension was examined by multivariate logistic regression and restricted cubic spline model. Multiple logistic regression models were also performed to examine the associations between the individual components of TyG-BMI (BMI, TyG index, TG and FBG) and hypertension. The incremental ability of TyG-BMI versus its individual components for hypertension discrimination was evaluated by C-statistic and net reclassification index. Subgroup analysis was performed to examine potential interactions. A total of 92,545 participants (38.9% men, mean age 53.7 years) were included for final analysis. Logistic regression models showed TyG-BMI and its individual components were all significantly associated with the odds of hypertension (p for trend < .001). The restricted cubic spline regression manifested a linear association between TyG-BMI and hypertension (p for non-linear = .062). The addition of TyG-BMI, in comparison with each individual component, exhibited the maximum incremental value for the discrimination of hypertension on the basis of base model (C-statistic: 0.679, 95% CI: 0.675-0.683 for base model vs. 0.695, 95% CI: 0.691-0.699 for base model + TyG-BMI; net reclassification index: 0.226, 95% CI: 0.215-0.234). TyG-BMI was significantly associated with the odds of hypertension and can be a better discriminator of hypertension.

Positive association of triglyceride-glucose index with new-onset hypertension among adults: a national cohort study in China. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2023; 22:58. [PMID: 36927705 PMCID: PMC10022268 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-01795-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies showed that the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index was a better predictor of adverse cardiovascular events than triglycerides or fasting blood glucose alone. However, few studies have focused on new-onset hypertension. We aimed to explore the association of TyG index with new-onset hypertension in Chinese adults. METHODS A total of 4,600 participants who underwent at least 2 rounds of visits from 2009 to 2015 in the China Health and Nutrition Survey were enrolled in this study. Our outcome of interest was new-onset hypertension. Multivariate Cox hazard regression models and restricted cubic spline were performed to explore the relationship between TyG index and new-onset hypertension. RESULTS The mean (standard deviation, SD) age of the study population was 48.1 (13.6) years, and 2058 (44.7%) of the participants were men. The mean (SD) TyG index level was 8.6 (0.7). A total of 1,211 (26.3%) participants developed new-onset hypertension during a median (interquartile range) follow-up duration of 6.0 (2.0-6.1) years. The incidences of new-onset hypertension were 18.1%, 25.3%, 28.5%, and 33.4% by quartiles of TyG index [from quartile 1 (Q1) to Q4], respectively. The Cox model showed that high levels of TyG index were significantly associated with increased risk of new-onset hypertension (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 1.29, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.07-1.55, Q2; aHR, 1.24, 95% CI 1.03-1.49, Q3; aHR, 1.50, 95% CI 1.22-1.84, Q4) compared with Q1. Consistently, as a continuous variable, for every 1.0 increase in TyG index, there was a 17% increase in the risk of new-onset hypertension (aHR, 1.17; 95% CI 1.04-1.31). The associations were consistent in various subgroups and sensitivity analysis. The dose-response curve indicated a positive, linear association between TyG index and the risk of new-onset hypertension. CONCLUSIONS High TyG index was significantly associated with an increased risk of new-onset hypertension among Chinese adults. Our findings suggest that maintaining a relatively low level of TyG index might be effective in the primary prevention of hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although previous studies have shown an association between clinically used antibiotics and type 2 diabetes, the relationship between antibiotic exposure from food and drinking water and type 2 diabetes in middle-aged and older adults is unclear. OBJECTIVE This study was aimed at exploring the relationship between antibiotic exposures from different sources and type 2 diabetes in middle-aged and older people, through urinary antibiotic biomonitoring. METHODS A total of 525 adults who were 45-75 years of age were recruited from Xinjiang in 2019. The total urinary concentrations of 18 antibiotics in five classes (tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, macrolides, sulfonamides and chloramphenicol) commonly used in daily life were measured via isotope dilution ultraperformance liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The antibiotics included four human antibiotics, four veterinary antibiotics and ten preferred veterinary antibiotics. The hazard quotient (HQ) of each antibiotic and the hazard index (HI) based on the mode of antibiotic use and effect endpoint classification were also calculated. Type 2 diabetes was defined on the basis of international levels. RESULTS The overall detection rate of the 18 antibiotics in middle-aged and older adults was 51.0%. The concentration, daily exposure dose, HQ, and HI were relatively high in participants with type 2 diabetes. After model adjustment for covariates, participants with HI > 1 for microbial effects (OR = 3.442, 95%CI: 1.423-8.327), HI > 1 for preferred veterinary antibiotic use (OR = 3.348, 95%CI: 1.386-8.083), HQ > 1 for norfloxacin (OR = 10.511, 96%CI: 1.571-70.344) and HQ > 1 for ciprofloxacin (OR = 6.565, 95%CI: 1.676-25.715) had a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus. CONCLUSIONS Certain antibiotic exposures, mainly those from sources associated with food and drinking water, generate health risks and are associated with type 2 diabetes in middle-aged and older adults. Because of this study's cross-sectional design, additional prospective studies and experimental studies are needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
Introduction Sleep disorders are commonly encountered in modern populations. This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the associations between triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and poor sleep patterns in non-diabetic adults. Methods Data of non-diabetic adults aged 20-70 years were extracted from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database 2005-2016. Pregnant women, individuals with diabetes and cancer history, and individuals lacking complete data on sleep patterns or parameters for calculating TyG index were excluded. Poor sleep pattern was defined as having two or more following conditions: (1) abnormal sleep duration, defined as less than 7 h or longer than 9 h; (2) self-reported trouble sleeping; and (3) physician-confirmed sleep disorders. Associations between poor sleep patterns, TyG index, and an additional index incorporating body mass index (BMI), TyGBMI, and other study variables were determined by univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis. Results Among 9,390 included participants, 1,422 had poor sleep patterns and 7,968 did not. The individuals with poor sleep patterns had a higher mean TyG index, were older, had higher BMI, and had higher proportions of hypertension and history of CVD than those without poor sleep pattern (all p < 0.001). Multivariable analysis showed no significant association between poor sleep pattern and TyG index. However, among the components of poor sleep pattern, TyG index in the highest quartile (Q4) was significantly associated with trouble sleeping [adjusted OR (aOR): 1.46, 95%CI: 1.04-2.03) as compared with the lowest TyG quartile (Q1). In addition, TyG-BMI in Q4 was indepently associated with increased likelihood for poor sleep patterns (aOR: 2.18, 95%CI: 1.61-2.95), trouble sleeping (aOR: 1.76, 95%CI: 1.30-2.39), abnormal sleep duration (aOR: 1.41, 95%CI: 1.12-1.78), and sleep disorders (aOR: 3.11, 95%CI: 2.08-4.64) as compared to Q1. Discussion Among US adults without diabetes, elevated TyG index is correlated with self-reported trouble sleeping, independent of BMI. Future studies should build upon this preliminary work and examine these associations longitudinally and through treatment trials.

Abstract
Evidence of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index as an independent predictor of arterial stiffness in stage 1 hypertension patients is scarce. This study aimed to explore the association between TyG index and arterial stiffness in this population. A total of 1041 individuals from 32 centers with normal/elevated blood pressure (BP, <130/80 mmHg; 345 men (33%); median age, 37 years) and 585 stage 1 hypertension patients (BP ≥130/80 and <140/90 mmHg; 305 men (52%); median age, 47 years) were prospectively enrolled. Arterial stiffness was determined by measuring carotid ultrafast pulse-wave velocity (ufPWV). TyG index was calculated as ln (fasting triglyceride (TG) × fasting blood glucose/2). Patients with a higher TyG index tended to have higher ufPWV. The TyG index was positively associated with ufPWV at the end of systole in stage 1 hypertension patients after adjusting for confounding factors (β for per unit .48), and restricted cubic spline analysis confirmed a linear association. Subgroup analyses in terms of age, sex, and body mass index yielded similar results. However, no significant relationship was observed between the TyG index and ufPWV in the population with normal/elevated BP. The fully adjusted β between ufPWV and the TyG index was higher than the TG/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio, TG, and pulse pressure. In conclusion, patients with a higher TyG index had greater arterial stiffness, and the TyG index independently and positively correlated with arterial stiffness in stage 1 hypertension patients. The TyG index may provide a simple and reliable marker to monitor arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients.

Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a predictor of arterial stiffness, incidence of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality: A longitudinal two-cohort analysis. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 9:1035105. [PMID: 36684574 PMCID: PMC9846351 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.1035105] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a useful low-cost marker of insulin resistance. We aimed to evaluate the association between TyG index and arterial stiffness, incidence of diabetes, adverse cardiovascular outcomes, and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in two large prospective Swedish cohorts, the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study-Cardiovascular Cohort (MDCS-CV) and the Malmö Preventive Project (MPP). Methods Association between baseline TyG index and arterial stiffness, measured by carotid femoral pulse wave velocity (c-f PWV), was assessed using linear regression and general linear models, adjusting for covariates. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to assess the association between TyG index and incidence of diabetes, coronary events (CE), stroke, atrial fibrillation (AF), heart failure, and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Results After multivariable adjustment, baseline TyG index was significantly associated with increased arterial stiffness (β for c-f PWV = 0.61, p = 0.018). Participants in the highest quartile of TyG index vs. lowest quartile had an increased incidence of diabetes (HR: 3.30, 95% CI: 2.47-4.41), CE (HR: 1.53, 95% CI: 1.41-1.68), stroke (HR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.18-1.44), all-cause mortality (HR: 1.22, 95% CI: 1.16-1.28), and cardiovascular mortality (HR: 1.37, 95% CI: 1.26-1.49) after adjustment for covariates. Per unit increase in TyG index was associated with increased heart failure risk. No significant association was observed for incident AF. Conclusion Elevated TyG index is positively associated with increased arterial stiffness and increased incidence of diabetes, CE, stroke, and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. The results suggest that TyG index can potentially be useful in the identification of those at increased long-term risk of adverse health outcomes.

Associations of the Triglyceride and Glucose Index With Hypertension Stages, Phenotypes, and Their Progressions Among Middle-Aged and Older Chinese. Int J Public Health 2023; 68:1605648. [PMID: 37020526 PMCID: PMC10067654 DOI: 10.3389/ijph.2023.1605648] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 04/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives: To assess the associations of the triglyceride and glucose (TyG) index with hypertension stages, phenotypes, and their progressions. Methods: The data originated from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Multinomial logistic regression investigated the associations of the TyG index with hypertension stages (stage 1, stage 2), phenotypes (isolated systolic hypertension [ISH], isolated diastolic hypertension [IDH], systolic diastolic hypertension [SDH]), their progressions. Results: Compared with the lowest quartile of TyG index, the highest quartile was associated with increased risks of stage 1 hypertension (OR 1.71, 95% CI 1.38-2.13), stage 2 (1.74, 1.27-2.38), ISH (1.66, 1.31-2.11), IDH (2.52, 1.26-5.05), and SDH (1.65, 1.23-2.23). Similar results were found when TyG index was a continuous variable. From 2011 to 2015, a higher baseline TyG index was associated with normotension to stage 1 (per-unit: 1.39, 1.16-1.65), normotension to ISH (per-unit: 1.28, 1.04-1.56), and normotension to IDH (per-unit: 1.94, 1.27-2.97). Conclusion: The TyG index was associated with different hypertension stages, phenotypes, their progressions, and could be served as a surrogate indicator for early hypertension management.

Association between surrogate indicators of insulin resistance and risk of type 2 diabetes combined with hypertension among Chinese adults: two independent cohort studies. Nutr Metab (Lond) 2022; 19:85. [PMID: 36581855 PMCID: PMC9798583 DOI: 10.1186/s12986-022-00720-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes (T2D) combined with hypertension has a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between the surrogate indicators of insulin resistance (TyG, TG/HDL, and Mets-IR) with the risk of T2D combined with hypertension. METHODS This study is based on a functional community cohort from Beijing and the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, comprising 4234 and 4658 participants respectively. Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline regression were performed to assess the link between TyG, TG/HDL, and Mets-IR with T2D combined with hypertension. The cross-lagged panel analysis and the mediation analysis were used to examine the temporal relationship between insulin resistance and obesity and their temporal relationship with follow-up T2D combined with hypertension. RESULTS In multivariable-adjusted models, higher TyG was associated with a higher risk of developing T2D combined with hypertension, the hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) were 3.46 (2.43-4.93) and 2.02 (1.67-2.44), in two cohorts respectively. A similar positive association was shown for Mets-IR, the hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) were 1.04 (1.03-1.06) and 1.05 (1.03-1.07), in two cohorts respectively. However, the association between TG/HDL with T2D combined with hypertension was different in two cohorts. The restricted cubic spline regression showed a linear association between TyG and T2D combined with hypertension (P-nonlinear > 0.05). The cross-lagged path coefficient from baseline BMI to follow-up TyG index was significantly greater than the path coefficient from baseline TyG to follow-up BMI. TyG partially mediated the effect of BMI on the risk of T2D combined with hypertension and the percentage of mediated association was estimated at 41.58% and 48.41% in two cohorts, respectively. CONCLUSION These findings indicated positive associations between TyG and Mets-IR with the risk of T2D combined with hypertension in two cohorts. In addition, BMI change may precede TyG index change, and the TyG index plays a mediating role in BMI induced T2D combined with hypertension.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the association between legume intake and blood pressure, as well as the mediating role of cardiometabolic risk factors in patients in secondary cardiovascular prevention. Socio-demographic, anthropometric, clinical and food intake data were collected from the baseline of the multicentre study Brazilian Cardioprotective Nutritional Program Trial - BALANCE (RCT: NCT01620398). The relationships between variables were explored through path analysis. In total, 2247 individuals with a median age of 63·0 (45-91) years, 58·8 % (n 1321) male and 96·5 % (n 2168) with diagnosis of hypertension were included. Negative associations were observed between histidine intake and systolic blood pressure (SBP) (standardised coefficient (SC) = -0·057; P = 0·012) and between legume intake and BMI (SC = -0·061; P = 0·006). BMI was positively associated with triglycerides-glucose (TyG) index (SC = 0·173; P < 0·001), SBP (SC = 0·144; P < 0·001) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (SC = 0·177; P < 0·001), and TyG index was positively associated with DBP (SC = 0·079; P = 0·001). A negative indirect effect was observed between the intake of legumes, SBP and DBP, mediated by BMI (SC = -0·009; P = 0·011; SC = -0·011; P = 0·010, respectively). In addition, an indirect negative effect was found between the intake of legumes and the DBP, mediated simultaneously by BMI and TyG index (SC = -0·001; P = 0·037). In conclusion, legume intake presented a negative indirect association with blood pressure, mediated by insulin resistance (TyG) and adiposity (BMI) in individuals of secondary care in cardiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Health interventions can delay or prevent the occurrence and development of diabetes. Dynamic nomogram and risk score (RS) models were developed to predict the probability of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and identify high-risk groups. METHODS Participants (n = 44,852) from the Beijing Physical Examination Center were followed up for 11 years (2006-2017); the mean follow-up time was 4.06 ± 2.09 years. Multivariable Cox regression was conducted in the training cohort to identify risk factors associated with T2DM and develop dynamic nomogram and RS models using weighted estimators corresponding to each covariate derived from the fitted Cox regression coefficients and variance estimates, and then undergone internal validation and sensitivity analysis. The concordance index (C-index) was used to assess the accuracy and reliability of the model. RESULTS Of the 44,852 individuals at baseline, 2,912 were diagnosed with T2DM during the follow-up period, and the incidence density rate per 1,000 person-years was 16.00. Multivariate analysis indicated that male sex (P < 0.001), older age (P < 0.001), high body mass index (BMI, P < 0.05), high fasting plasma glucose (FPG, P < 0.001), hypertension (P = 0.015), dyslipidaemia (P < 0.001), and low serum creatinine (sCr, P < 0.05) at presentation were risk factors for T2DM. The dynamic nomogram achieved a high C-index of 0.909 in the training set and 0.905 in the validation set. A tenfold cross-validation estimated the area under the curve of the nomogram at 0.909 (95% confidence interval 0.897-0.920). Moreover, the dynamic nomogram and RS model exhibited acceptable discrimination and clinical usefulness in subgroup and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSIONS The T2DM dynamic nomogram and RS models offer clinicians and others who conduct physical examinations, respectively, simple-to-use tools to assess the risk of developing T2DM in the urban Chinese current or retired employees.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The associations between the long-term triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index level and variability and clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have not been well studied. METHODS A total of 1,694 ACS patients with at least three postbaseline TyG index measurements within 2 years after PCI were included in the present study. The TyG index was defined as ln (fasting triglycerides [mg/dL] × fasting plasma glucose [mg/dL]/2). Multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine the association between baseline and mean TyG index levels and TyG index variability and the risk of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). RESULTS During the median follow-up of 31 months, the overall incidence of MACCE was 5.9%. Both high baseline and mean TyG index levels were independently associated with an increased risk of MACCEs after adjustment for multiple potential confounders (hazard ratio [HR) 1.76 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06-2.93; and HR 2.73 95% CI 1.57-4.74). Similarly, higher TyG index variability by successive variation (SD) was well related to a higher prevalence of MACCEs (HR 2.17 95% CI 1.28-3.68). In addition, the mean TyG index level showed a stronger risk prediction for MACCEs than the baseline TyG index level and TyG index-SD (AUCs 0.618 vs 0.566 vs 0.566). CONCLUSIONS The risk of MACCEs significantly increased with higher baseline and mean TyG index levels, as well as TyG index variability, in patients with ACS undergoing PCI. In particular, the mean TyG index level exhibited the highest predicting ability for MACCEs. Therefore, monitoring the long-term pattern of the TyG index deserves attention in clinical practice.

Abstract
Nondipper hypertensive patients have an increased incidence of damage to end organs, including the brain, heart, and kidney, and a worse cardiovascular prognosis. The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is a reliable indicator of insulin resistance (IR) and is closely related to the traditional risk factors of cardiovascular disease. To the best of our knowledge, whether there is a relationship between the TyG index and impaired diurnal blood pressure (BP) has not been investigated. This study aimed to compare the TyG index between normotensive, nondipper, and dipper hypertensive patients. A total of 1037 patients grouped according to the results of ambulatory BP monitoring were included, with group 1 including dipper hypertensive ( n = 368), group 2 including nondipper hypertensive ( n = 496), and group 3 including normotensive control ( n = 173) patients. In both the univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, TyG index [odds ratio (OR), 4.656; 95% confidence interval (CI), 3.014-7.193; P < 0.001], age (OR, 1.011; 95% CI, 1.002-1.021; P = 0.018), and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (OR, 0.979; 95% CI, 0.971-0.987; P < 0.001) were independent predictors of nondipper hypertension (HT). In the ROC analysis, a TyG index cutoff value of at least 4.74 predicted nondipper hypertensive patients with a sensitivity of 59.7%, and a specificity of 59.9% [area under the curve = 0.647 (0.614-0.680); 95% CI; P < 0.001]. We showed that TyG index, age, and GFR are independent predictors in patients with nondipper HT. TyG index, a simple, cost-effective, and rapid tool can predict the nondipper pattern in essential HT.

Diabetol Metab Syndr 2022; 14:161. [PMID: 36309720 PMCID: PMC9617408 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-022-00927-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) is an important contributor to the development of hypertension (HTN), and the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been proposed as a simple, reliable marker of IR. This study investigated the association between the TyG index and blood pressure (BP) elevation in a large general population. METHODS The study enrolled 15,721 adults with no history of cardiometabolic diseases from the 2016-2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Participants were classified into quartiles based on the TyG index and BP was categorized as normal BP, elevated BP, pre-HTN, and HTN. The associations of the TyG index with BP categories were assessed using multivariate multinomial logistic regression models with normal BP as the reference group. RESULTS The mean systolic/diastolic BP and prevalence of HTN increased with the TyG index (P for trend < 0.001). The continuous TyG index had a strong dose-response relationship with increased odds of elevated BP, pre-HTN, and HTN. Compared with the lowest TyG index quartile, the highest TyG index quartile was significantly associated with higher odds of having elevated BP (odds ratio [OR], 1.52; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.24-1.87; P for trend < 0.001), pre-HTN (OR, 2.22; 95% CI, 1.95-2.53; P for trend < 0.001), and HTN (OR, 4.24; 95% CI, 3.49-5.16; P for trend < 0.001). CONCLUSION We found that a higher TyG index was positively associated with the risk of increased BP in normal healthy individuals. This study suggests that the TyG index might serve as a potential predictor of HTN. However, further studies with larger sample sizes and various target populations in longitudinal designs are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While studies have suggested the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a reliable surrogate for insulin resistance and hypertension data are limited to the correlation of TyG and central blood pressure. This study aims to test the hypothesis that a higher TyG index is associated with elevated central systolic blood pressure (cSBP). METHODS A total of 9249 Chinese hypertensive adults from the H-type Hypertension and Stroke Prevention and Control Project were analyzed in this study. cSBP was measured noninvasively using an A-Pulse CASPro device. TyG index was calculated as ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dL) × fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2]. Smoothing curve and multivariate linear regression models [beta coefficient (β) with 95% CI] were applied to analyze the association between TyG index and cSBP. Subgroup analyses were conducted to explore potential modifications to such a correlation. RESULTS The overall mean TyG index is 8.8 ± 0.7, and the total mean cSBP is 131.3 ± 12.8 mmHg. TyG index was observed to be independently and positively associated with cSBP among the total population (β = 0.92, 95% CI: 0.53-1.31, P < 0.001), and participants who do not use antihypertensive drugs (β = 1.03, 95% CI: 0.46-1.60, P < 0.001), which is in accordance with the result of the smoothing curve. The association between TyG index and cSBP appears robust in all tested subgroups. CONCLUSIONS TyG index is positively and independently associated with cSBP among hypertensive adults. Our study result suggests that TyG index might serve as an effective marker for vascular function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipid and glucose metabolism abnormalities are associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a recently developed indicator that can identify individuals at risk for NAFLD. However, the applicability of the TyG index for identifying NAFLD in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of the TyG index to identify individuals at risk for NAFLD in the T2DM population. METHODS A total of 2280 participants with T2DM were recruited in this cross-sectional study. The TyG index was calculated, and NAFLD was diagnosed by ultrasonography. Binary logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association of the TyG index, glycemic parameters and lipid parameters with NAFLD. RESULTS Logistic regression analysis showed that the TyG index was significantly associated with NAFLD in subjects with T2DM, the odds ratio (OR) were 3.27 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.03-5.27; P < 0.001) for NAFLD in the highest TyG quartile after adjustment for known confounders. In stratified analysis, an elevated TyG index were more remarkably associated with NAFLD in younger patients (< 65 years; OR, 2.35; 95% CI, 1.83-3.02; P < 0.001), females (OR, 2.69; 95% CI, 1.67-4.32; P < 0.001), patients with BMI < 25 kg/m2 (OR, 2.80; 95% CI, 2.01-3.91; P < 0.0001), and with lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (< 1 mmol/L; OR, 2.76; 95% CI, 1.98-3.83; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The TyG index is significantly associated with NAFLD and shows superior ability for identify NAFLD risk compared with other lipid and glycemic parameters in T2DM.

Abstract
Aim Our aim was to identify the relationship between several surrogate insulin resistance (IR) indices based on lipid products and the development of hypertension. Materials and methods A total of 3,281 participants aged ≥ 18 years enrolled in the China Health and Nutrition Survey from 2009 to 2015 and who were followed up for 6 years were included in the final analysis. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between different IR indices and incident hypertension. Results There were 882 (28.9%) hypertensive participants in 2015. With regard to the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) based on insulin level, subjects in the highest quartile of HOMA-IR values were more likely to develop hypertension [RR = 1.58 (1.26–1.98), P < 0.001] after being adjusted by sex and age, smoke habits, alcohol consumption, community type, married status, and education years in 2009. Subjects in the highest quartile of the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) combined with body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) had more than two times the risk of hypertension after full adjustment compared with individuals in the lowest quartile (both P < 0.001), and the trend continued when adjusted for the HOMA-IR. Compared with those in the lowest quartile of TyG-BMI values, females in the highest quartile had a higher risk of developing hypertension than males [2.82 (2.01–3.97) vs. 2.56 (1.80–3.64)] after the full adjustment, and the trend existed independent of IR. Young participants in the highest quartile of the HOMA-IR had significantly higher risks of hypertension compared with subjects in the lowest quartile [1.67 (1.31–2.14), P < 0.005], and this trend was not significant in the elderly participants. Conclusion The results from our large-scale study elucidate the superiority of the TyG-BMI and TyG-WC compared with the HOMA-IR in the prediction of hypertension, which may be related to lipid deposition. The sex-specific predictive value is distinct for different IR indicators.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have investigated the association of insulin resistance (IR) surrogates and the risk of hypertension. However, it is unclear whether there exist differences between different IR surrogates and hypertension risk. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the association of four IR surrogates (triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index), triglyceride-glucose index with body mass index (TyG-BMI), triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-c), and metabolic score for IR (METS-IR)) with the prevalence of hypertension. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study with a total of 117,056 participants. Data were extracted from a computerized database established by Rich Healthcare Group in China, which included all medical records of participants who received a health check-up from 2010 to 2016. IR surrogates were grouped into quartiles as continuous variables, and multivariate logistic regression was performed to estimate the association between different IR surrogate levels and the prevalence of hypertension. Results were expressed as odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Missing data were accounted by multiple imputation. These analyses were considered as the sensitivity analysis. Meanwhile, the Bayesian network (BN) model was constructed to further evaluate the relationship between baseline characteristics and the four IR surrogates and the prevalence of hypertension, as well as the importance of every single variable for the prevalence of hypertension. RESULTS Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that TyG-BMI and METS-IR were independent risk factors for the prevalence of hypertension that increased significantly with increasing TyG-BMI and METS-IR (p for trend < 0.001). The area under the TyG-BMI curve (AUC) was 0.681 [95% CI: 0.677-0.685], and the cut-off value was 199.5, with a sensitivity and specificity of 65.57% and 61.18%, respectively. While the area under the METS-IR curve (AUC) was 0.679 [95% CI: 0.674-0.683], and the cut-off value was 33.61, with a sensitivity and specificity of 69.67% and 56.67%, respectively. The BN model presented that among these four IR surrogates and related variables, TyG-BMI was the most important predictor of hypertension prevalence, with a significance of 34%. The results before and after multiple imputation were similar. CONCLUSION TyG-BMI and METS-IR were independent risk factors for the prevalence of hypertension. TyG-BMI and METS-IR had good predictive value for the prevalence of hypertension, and TyG-BMI was superior to METS-IR.

Abstract
Background and aims The relationship of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is unclear. This study aims to detect the association between AIP and NAFLD, compare the discriminative power of AIP with other lipid parameters for NAFLD, and establish a discriminant model using physical examination data. Methods Participants aged over 20 years who underwent routine physical examination in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from April 2016 to August 2020 were included. We categorized subjects based on hepatic ultrasound results and analyzed the association between NAFLD risk and AIP, conventional plasma lipids, remnant cholesterol (RC), triglyceride and glucose (TyG) index, and other atherogenic indices (n = 112,200) using logistic regression, restricted cubic spline regression, and receiver operating characteristic curve. Results Out of the 112,200 subjects, 30.4% had NAFLD. The body weight index, plasma glucose, conventional lipids, TyG index, AIP, atherogenic coefficient (AC), and coronary risk index (CRI) were significantly higher, while HDL-C was lower (p < 0.001) in patients with NAFLD than those without NAFLD (all p < 0.001). Compared with conventional lipids, RC, TyG index, AC, and CRI, AIP had a stronger correlation with the risk of NAFLD (OR 6.71, 95% CI 6.23–7.22, p < 0.001) after adjusting confounders and presented a non-linear dose–response relationship (p < 0.0001). The optimal cut-off value of AIP was 0.05 and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.82 (95% CI: 0.81–0.82) with high sensitivity and specificity. The AUC of the simplified three-variable NAFLD discriminant model was 0.90 in both the training set and the validation set. Conclusion AIP was significantly associated with NAFLD and showed superior discriminative performance to other lipid parameters. These findings might help screen NAFLD in high-risk individuals and reduce the prevalence of NAFLD.

Abstract
Background Abnormal glycolipid metabolism plays a crucial role in hypertension. While an elevated triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been recognized as a risk factor for developing hypertension, the associations between the TyG index and different hypertension subtypes, namely, isolated systolic hypertension (ISH), isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH), and systolic-diastolic hypertension (SDH), remain unclear. This study was designed to investigate the associations between the TyG index and hypertension subtypes in a general Chinese population. Materials and methods In a sample of 16,793 participants from Shandong Province, China, multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to examine the associations between the TyG index and different hypertension subtypes. Loess smooth curves were fitted to visualize the trends. Stratified analyses were conducted to further assess the potential interactions in the associations between the TyG index and different hypertension subtypes. Results A higher TyG index was associated with an increased odds of having IDH (OR = 2.94, 95% CI: 1.66–5.23) and SDH (OR = 1.82, 95% CI: 1.33–2.49), whereas no apparent relationship was observed between TyG index and ISH. With respect to sex, the effect of TyG index on having IDH and SDH was significant in women, but not in men. Participants with lower lipid profiles and glucose levels demonstrated a stronger strength of association between the TyG index and IDH as compared with the TyG index-SDH association. Stratified analysis showed that participants with a higher TyG index were more than 3 times more likely to have IDH and SDH among persons aged 18–42 years. Significant interactions were observed between TyG index and sex, age, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in the SDH group, and a significant interaction was also found between TyG index and body mass index (BMI) in the ISH group. Conclusion Triglyceride-glucose index may potentially serve as a novel indicator for IDH and SDH. Our findings could also inform the development and implementation of targeted screening for hypertension.

Relationship between the triglyceride-glucose index and risk of cardiovascular diseases and mortality in the general population: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2022; 21:124. [PMID: 35778731 PMCID: PMC9250255 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-022-01546-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 91] [Impact Index Per Article: 45.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a new alternative measure for insulin resistance. This meta-analysis was conducted to assess the associations of the TyG index with the risks of cardiovascular diseases and mortality in the general population. METHODS The PubMed, Cochrane Library and Embase databases were searched for randomized controlled trials or observational cohort studies reporting associations of the TyG index with cardiovascular diseases and mortality from inception to April 16, 2022. Effect sizes were pooled using random-effects models. Robust error meta-regression methods were applied to fit nonlinear dose-response associations. Evidence quality levels and recommendations were assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation system (GRADE). RESULTS Twelve cohort studies (6 prospective and 6 retrospective cohorts) involving 6,354,990 participants were included in this meta-analysis. Compared with the lowest TyG index category, the highest TyG index was related to a higher incidence of coronary artery disease (CAD) (3 studies; hazard ratio [HR] = 2.01; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.68-2.40; I2 = 0%), myocardial infarction (MI) (2 studies; HR = 1.36; 95% CI 1.18-1.56; I2 = 35%), and composite cardiovascular disease (CVD) (5 studies; HR = 1.46; 95% CI 1.23-1.74; I2 = 82%). However, there was no association between the TyG index and mortality (cardiovascular mortality [3 studies; HR = 1.10; 95% CI 0.82-1.47; I2 = 76%] or all-cause mortality [4 studies; HR = 1.08; 95% CI 0.92-1.27; I2 = 87%]). In the dose-response analysis, there was a linear association of the TyG index with the risk of CAD (Pnonlinear = 0.3807) or CVD (Pnonlinear = 0.0612). GRADE assessment indicated very low certainty for CVD, MI, cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality, and moderate certainty for CAD. CONCLUSIONS Based on our current evidence, a higher TyG index may be associated with an increased incidence of CAD (moderate certainty), MI (very low certainty) and CVD (very low certainty) in the general population. There is a potential linear association of the TyG index with CAD and the composite CVD incidence. Further prospective studies (especially in non-Asians) are needed to confirm our findings.

Triglyceride-Glucose Index and Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance in Young Adulthood and Risk of Incident Congestive Heart Failure in Midlife: The Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults Study. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:944258. [PMID: 35845059 PMCID: PMC9279654 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.944258] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective This study aimed to assess the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index/homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) within young adults and congestive heart failure (CHF), and to explore whether TyG index can replace HOMA-IR as a surrogate marker for IR in predicting the risk of CHF. Methods A total of 4,992 participants between the ages of 18 and 30 years were enrolled from the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) investigation [from 1985 to 1986 (year 0)]. A Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was conducted for assessing correlations between baseline TyG index/HOMA-IR and CHF events, together with the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve employed for scrutinizing TyG index/HOMA-IR and the risk of CHF. Results During the 31-year follow-up period, 64 (1.3%) of the 4,992 participants developed CHF. In multivariable Cox proportional hazards models, adjusted for confounding factors for CHF, an increased risk of CHF was associated with a per-unit increase in the TyG index [hazard ratio (HR) 2.8; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.7–4.7] and HOMA-IR (HR 1.2; 95% CI, 1.1–1.3). A Kaplan–Meier curve analysis showed that participants in the TyG index and HOMA-IR index Q4 group had a higher risk of CHF than those in the Q1 group. The area under curve (AUC) for the TyG index and HOMA-IR consisted of 0.67 (95% CI, 0.6–0.742) and 0.675 (95% CI, 0.604–0.746), respectively. There were no significant differences between the TyG index and HOMA-IR for AUC (p = 0.986). Conclusion The higher TyG index and HOMA-IR are independent risk factors for CHF. The TyG index can replace HOMA-IR in young adulthood as a surrogate marker for IR to predict the risk of CHF.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:1005614. [PMID: 36105408 PMCID: PMC9467280 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.1005614] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study aimed to explore the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and stroke recurrence in elderly patients with ischemic stroke in China. METHODS We enrolled ischemic stroke patients aged ≥ 65 years from the Nanjing Stroke Registry Program. The primary endpoint was defined as recurrent stroke within one year after the index stroke. We used multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models to investigate the association between TyG index and stroke recurrence. We assessed the discriminative ability of TyG index with the receiver operative characteristic and the area under the curve. RESULTS A total of 955 patients (median age, 70.0 [67.0, 75.0]; male sex, 67.2%) from the Nanjing Stroke Registry Program were enrolled. During one year follow-up, 97 (10.2%) elderly patients experienced stroke recurrence. In multivariable analyses, the association between TyG index and stroke recurrence remained significant after adjusting for confounders (quartile 4 versus quartile 1; hazard ratio, 2.073, 95% confidence interval, 1.158-3.711; P = 0.014). The restricted cubic spline showed an increasing trend for TyG index and stroke recurrence (P for non-linearity = 0.072). The area under the curve to predict stroke recurrence with TyG index was 0.719 (95% confidence interval, 0.666-0.772). Besides, TyG index slightly improved the prediction for stroke recurrence. CONCLUSION Elevated TyG index was associated with stroke recurrence in elderly patients with ischemic stroke. Further studies are warranted to assess the role of TyG index in the development of stroke recurrence in the elderly.

Triglyceride Glucose Index Is More Closely Related to Hyperuricemia Than Obesity Indices in the Medical Checkup Population in Xinjiang, China. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:861760. [PMID: 35311243 PMCID: PMC8924289 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.861760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperuricemia (HUA) is a metabolic anomaly with an increased incidence rate, causing a global medical burden. Several studies have confirmed that obesity and insulin resistance (IR) are the risk factors for HUA. Reports on the predictive power of different obesity indices for HUA are limited. This study aimed to compare the association between different general, abdominal, and visceral obesity indices and markers of the IR-triglyceride glucose (TyG) index with serum uric acid (SUA) and to assess the ability of these indices to predict HUA. METHODS A total of 2243 participants were recruited from Barkol County Hospital and surrounding township hospitals in Xinjiang. Obesity indices, including the atherogenic index of plasma, cardiometabolic index, visceral adiposity index, lipid accumulation product index, a body shape index, body roundness index, waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio, body mass index, and TyG index, were divided into four quartiles. Moreover, partial correlations and logistic regression were used to analyze the association between these indices and SUA. The area under the curve (AUC) and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to analyze the predictive value of these indices for HUA. RESULTS After controlling for confounding variables, the association between the TyG index and HUA was stronger than that between the obesity indices in both males and females. The odds ratios (ORs) for HUA in the highest quartile of the TyG index were 2.098 (95% confidence interval, 1.555-2.831) in males and 7.788 (95% CI, 3.581-16.937) in females. For males, the AIP, CMI, VAI, LAP index, and TyG index were able to discriminate HUA, and the TyG index showed the highest AUC value of 0.586 (95% CI, 0.557-0.614; P < 0.001). For females, all indices, except BMI, can discriminate HUA. Moreover, the visceral obesity index CMI showed the highest AUC value of 0.737 (95% CI, 0.691-0.782; P < 0.001). Meanwhile, the TyG index had a relatively high AUC value of 0.728 (95% CI, 0.682-0.773; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The TyG index was significantly related to HUA and was superior to obesity indices in identifying HUA in the medical checkup population in Xinjiang, China.

Clin Exp Hypertens 2021; 44:34-39. [PMID: 34633263 DOI: 10.1080/10641963.2021.1984499] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To analyze the association between triglyceride-glucose index (TYG index) and hyperuricemia (HUA) in elderly patients with hypertension. METHODS A total of 428 inpatients with primary hypertension from March 2018 to March 2021 in Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Grouped by sex and serum uric acid. Serum uric acid (SUA), fasting blood glucose (FPG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), serum creatinine (Scr), urea nitrogen (BUN), triglycerides (TG), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HS-CRP) and other biochemical indicators were measured, and the TYG index was calculated. The TYG index and SUA levels of each group were compared, and the correlation between TYG index and hyperuricemia was analyzed. Multivariate Logistic regression was performed to analyze the relationship between TYG index and the risk of HUA in elderly patients with hypertension. The ROC curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of TYG index in elderly patients with hypertension associated with HUA. RESULTS TYG index was significantly higher in the HUA group than in the normal group in both men and women (P < .05). Spearson correlation analysis showed that TYG index positively correlated with TC, TG, FPG, SUA, and LDL-C(r = 0.327, 0.975, 0.412, 0.214, 0.215, P = .000, 0.000, 0.000, 0.000, 0.000), and negatively correlated with age and HDL-C (r = -0.166, -0.248, P = .001, 0.000). Logistic regression analysis showed that Scr, BUN, HS-CRP and TYG index were the risk factors for HUA in elderly patients with hypertension (P < .05).The ROC curve showed an area under the TYG exponential curve of 0.617(95%CI:0.561 ~ 0.673) with a sensitivity of 64.4% and a specificity of 57.4%. CONCLUSION TYG index in elderly hypertensive patients is closely related to hyperuricemia, and the increase of TYG index is an independent risk factor for HUA in elderly hypertensive patients.
