Maturitas 2024; 188:108085. [PMID: 39102760 DOI: 10.1016/j.maturitas.2024.108085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 07/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine how age affects insulin resistance during the menstrual cycle and insulin resistance-associated indices: the Triglyceride-glucose and Triglyceride-glucose-BMI indexes. METHODS This prospective observational study used fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin, triglycerides, body mass index (BMI), and days since the start of the menstrual period collected from the NHANES dataset (1999-2006). Insulin resistance was determined using the Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR). The participants were categorized as young (16-34 years) or older (>35 years). Rhythmicity during the menstrual cycle was analyzed using the Cosinor and Cosinor2 packages for R. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Cosine fit curves for insulin resistance during the menstrual cycle and age-associated effects on rhythmicity. RESULTS Using 1256 participants, rhythmicity was observed for fasting insulin and HOMA-IR (p < 0.05) but not for fasting plasma glucose, the Triglyceride-glucose index, or the Triglyceride-glucose-BMI index. Significant amplitudes for fasting insulin and HOMA-IR were observed when age was considered. Acrophases for fasting insulin and HOMA-IR were significant only for the younger group, and the differences between these groups were significant, suggesting that the changes in scores for insulin resistance for the younger and older groups occur at different times of their menstrual cycle. CONCLUSIONS Insulin resistance does fluctuate during the menstrual cycle, and it is at a maximum at different times for younger and older women. Since these results are unadjusted, this study is preliminary and further investigation is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) is a pivotal pathogenesis characteristic of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The current study aimed to explore the association between triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-c), triglyceride-glucose (TyG), and triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI), and T2DM incidence. METHODS A total of 116,855 Chinese adults aged over 20 without diabetes were included. Multivariate Cox regression analysis and restricted cubic spine were utilized to investigate the association between IR indicators and T2DM. The T2DM risk across different quartiles of IR parameters was compared using Kaplan-Meier curves. The receiver operating characteristic analysis was used to investigate the predictive potential of each IR indicator for future T2DM. RESULTS A total of 2685 participants developed T2DM during a median follow-up of 2.98 years. The adjusted hazard ratios (HR) of incident T2DM were 1.177, 2.766, and 1.1018 for TG/HDL-c, TyG, and TyG-BMI, respectively. There were significant increasing trends of T2DM across the quartiles of TG/HDL-c, TyG, and TyG-BMI. The HRs of new-onset T2DM in the highest quartiles versus the lowest quartile of TG/HDL-c, TyG, and TyG-BMI were 3.298, 8.402, and 8.468. RCS revealed the nonlinear relationship between IR and T2DM risk. The correlations between IR and T2DM were more pronounced in subjects aged <40. TyG-BMI had the highest predictive value for incident T2DM (AUC = 0.774), with a cut-off value of 213.289. CONCLUSION TG/HDL-c, TyG, and TyG-BMI index were all significantly positively associated with higher risk for future T2DM. Baseline TyG-BMI level had high predictive value for the identification of T2DM.

[PMID: 38823589 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.05.084] [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: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The association between the Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and depression has been observed, yet its confirmation within peri- and postmenopausal demographics remains elusive. Consequently, the principal aim of this investigation is to explore the nexus between TyG-related indicators and depressive symptoms among pre- and postmenopausal women. METHODS The data utilized in this study were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted from 2013 to 2016. The patients were divided into three groups based on TyG, Triglyceride-Glucose-Body Mass Index (TyG-BMI), Triglyceride-Glucose-Waist Circumference (TyG-WC), and Triglyceride-Glucose-Waist-to-Height Ratio (TyG-WHtR): Q1 (1st quintile), Q2 (2nd quintile), and Q3 (3rd quintile). Further exploration of the differences between these groups was conducted. Employing logistic regression, stratified analysis, restricted cubic splines, and subgroup analyses, we scrutinized the correlation between TyG-related indicators and depressive symptoms in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Furthermore, sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess the durability and uniformity of this relationship. RESULTS In premenopausal women, there was a consistent independent positive correlation between TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR with depressive symptoms across all three models, while TyG itself did not show a significant association. In Models 1 and 2, TyG-BMI exhibited a higher odds ratio (OR) value than the other two indicators [Model 1, Q3 OR (95 % confidence interval, CI) = 3.37 (1.91-5.94); Model 2, Q3 OR (95 % CI) = 3.03 (1.67-5.52)]. In Models 3, TyG-WHtR demonstrates a more significant association with depressive symptoms [Model 3, Q3 OR (95 % CI) = 2.85 (1.55-5.27)]. This correlation does not manifest in menopausal women. CONCLUSIONS In premenopausal women, TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR exhibited a positive and linear relationship with depressive symptoms. Furthermore, the analysis revealed that the combined measures of TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR offered greater precision and sensitivity in assessing this association compared to TyG alone.

An open label randomized controlled trial of the effects of rice bran oil on cardiometabolic risk factors, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status in overweight/obese adults with metabolic syndrome. Lipids Health Dis 2024; 23:273. [PMID: 39198792 PMCID: PMC11350959 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-024-02260-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2024] [Accepted: 08/16/2024] [Indexed: 09/01/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION We previously documented the beneficial effects of rice bran oil (RBO) on cardiac function and atherogenic cardiometabolic factors in men with coronary artery disease. Therefore, the existing evidence in this area aims to be expanded by investigating the impact of adding RBO to a daily standard diet on emerging insulin resistance surrogate markers, lipid peroxidation, antioxidant status, and metabolic disturbances in individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetSyn) through an open-label controlled trial. METHODS A total of 50 overweight/obese adults (mean body mass index (BMI) = 31.08 kg/m2) with at least 3 MetSyn components were randomly allocated to either the control group, which received a standard diet plan, or the intervention group, which was supplemented with 30 g/d RBO for 8 weeks. BMI, MetSyn components, metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR), triglyceride‒glucose‒BMI (TyG‒BMI), malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and plasma polyphenol levels were measured before and after this open-label trial. RESULTS Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) adjusted for baseline values revealed that, compared with patients who received only a standard diet, those who were supplemented with 30 g/d RBO presented significantly lower total cholesterol (P value = 0.005; effect size (ES):-0.92), LDL-cholesterol (P value = 0.048; ES:-0.62), fasting blood glucose (P value = 0.014; ES:-0.77), MDA (P value = 0.002; ES: -1.01), METS-IR (P value < 0.001; ES: -1.24), and TyG-BMI (P value = 0.007; ES:-0.85) after 8 weeks. Additionally, RBO consumption resulted in significantly higher levels of HDL-C (P value = 0.004; ES:0.94) and TAC (P value < 0.0001; ES:2.05). However, no significant changes were noted in BMI, waist circumference, serum triglycerides, plasma polyphenols, or blood pressure. CONCLUSION Although the current findings suggest that the hypocholesterolemic, antihyperglycemic, and antioxidative effects of 30 g/d RBO seem to be promising for MetSyn patients, they should be considered preliminary. Therefore, further well-designed clinical trials with larger sample sizes and longer durations are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study explored the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG), TyG index with body mass index (TyG-BMI), triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C), metabolic score for insulin resistance (IR) (METS-IR) and the risk of esophageal cancer. METHODS A total of 388,900 participants from the United Kingdom Biobank from 2006 to 2010 were included. Fine-Gray models, restricted cubic spline (RCS), and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the association between the four IR surrogates and the risk of esophageal cancer, specifically, esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). RESULTS Ten years after recruitment, 0.16% (95%CI 0.11-0.26%) had esophageal cancer and 4.17% (95%CI 3.86-4.46%) are deceased. For each standard deviation increase in the TyG index, TyG-BMI, TG/HDL-C, and METS-IR, the risk of EAC increased by Hazard ratios (HR)1.16, 1.37, 1.08, and 1.36, respectively (all P < 0.05), while the risk of ESCC decreased by HRs 0.80, 0.67, 0.77, and 0.65, respectively. RCS analysis indicated that most relationships were nonlinear (P < 0.05). ROC curves showed that METS-IR had a more robust diagnostic efficacy than TyG, TyG-BMI, and TG/HDL-C. CONCLUSION TyG index, TyG-BMI, TG/HDL-C, and METS-IR were closely associated with the risk of EAC and ESCC. Additionally, METS-IR surpassed the other three IR indices in predicting and diagnosing the risks of EAC and ESCC. The METS-IR is expected to become a more effective metric for identifying populations at early risk of esophageal cancer and for improving risk stratification.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To elucidate the impact and predictive value of the Triglyceride Glucose Index (TyG) and the ratio of Triglycerides to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) in identifying the risk of diabetes progression in Chinese individuals with prediabetes. METHODS This longitudinal study enrolled 15,012 prediabetic adults from the Rich Healthcare Group between 2010 and 2016. Diabetes was defined as self-reported diabetes or a fasting glucose level ≥ 7.0 mmol/L. The Cox proportional hazards models was utilized to assess the relationship between the two indices and the risk of developing diabetes. The predictive efficacy of the two markers was gauged by the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS Over a median follow-up period of 2.87 years, 1,730 (11.5%) prediabetic participants developed diabetes. The adjusted hazard ratios for the top quartile of the TyG index and the TG/HDL-C ratio were 2.03 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.71-2.40) and 2.59 (95% CI: 2.20-3.05), respectively, compared to the lowest quartile. A significant trend of increasing diabetes risk with higher quartiles of both indices was observed. The AUC for the adjusted prediction model for prediabetes-to-diabetes transition was 0.726 for the TyG index and 0.710 for the TG/HDL-C ratio. The difference in AUCs was statistically significant (P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS The baseline TyG index or TG/HDL-C ratio was significantly associated with an increased risk of diabetes in prediabetic individuals. The TyG index demonstrated superior predictive accuracy, underscoring its importance in preventing diabetes in prediabetic individuals.

Comparison of TyG and Newly TyG Related Indicators for Chronic Kidney Diseases Estimation in a Chinese Population. Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2024; 17:3063-3075. [PMID: 39184550 PMCID: PMC11342947 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s469260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2024] [Accepted: 08/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Obesity and insulin resistance (IR) are positively associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Previous studies have identified triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) as a valuable surrogate of insulin resistance. Recently, new indicators combining TyG and simple anthropometric indices have emerged, The objective of this study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of TyG and newly TyG related indicators in detecting CKD and explore which indices were superior in associating with CKD in Chinese population. Methods Correlation test, logistic regression analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were used to evaluate the optimal cut-off and value of TyG, TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI), TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC), TyG-waist to height ratio (TyG-WHtR) for predicting CKD. Results TyG-WHtR, TyG-WC, and TyG-BMI correlated with several risk factors for CKD. After adjusting for confounders, TyG-WHtR and TyG-WC remained significantly associated with CKD, while TyG-BMI did not. The highest quartiles of TyG-WHtR and TyG-WC had 1.95- and 1.91-fold increased risk of CKD than the lowest quartiles (P<0.05). TyG-WHtR had the largest AUC (0.687) for CKD detection, followed by TyG-WC (0.669), TyG (0.652), and TyG-BMI (0.648). A united model that involved TyG-WHtR and other risk variables had higher predictive performance (AUC=0.791) than a single TyG related indicator. However, TyG had the highest OR (2.713, 95% CI, 1.446-5.090) for reduced eGFR in the fully adjusted model. A united model that involved TyG and WHtR separately had stronger predictive ability (AUC: 0.794) than the model that involved TyG-WHtR individually (AUC:0.791). Conclusion This study found that TyG-WHtR had a better diagnostic value in the diagnosis of CKD, compared to other TyG related indicators, but none of the TyG related indicators showed a stronger association with CKD than TyG. Further research and more refined algorithms are needed to verify these new indicators.

Abstract
Background The relationship between atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and sarcopenia has not been studied in the United States (US) population. Methods This research included 4,835 people from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 2011 and 2018. The relationship between sarcopenia and TyG-BMI, as well as the AIP index, was examined through the utilization of restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis, subgroup analysis, and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Diagnostic value of AIP and TyG-BMI for sarcopenia was compared by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results In this research, 428 people with sarcopenia were identified among the 4,835 subjects that were included in the experiment. AIP and sarcopenia were positively associated with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.58 and a 95% confidence interval (CI) of (1.07, 2.34) on fully adjusted multivariate logistic regression analysis. Similarly, TyG-BMI and sarcopenia were positively associated with an OR of 8.83 and a 95% CI of (5.46, 14.26). AIP and sarcopenia had a non-linear positive connection (P-value<0.001, P-Nonlinear=0.010), while TyG-BMI and sarcopenia had a linear positive correlation (P-value<0.001, P-Nonlinear=0.064), according to RCS analysis. Subgroup analyses showed a significant interaction between TyG-BMI and sarcopenia due to gender (P = 0.023). ROC curves showed that TyG-BMI (AUC:0.738, 95% CI: 0.714 - 0.761) was more useful than AIP (AUC:0.648, 95% CI: 0.622 - 0.673) in diagnosing sarcopenia. Conclusion In US adults aged 20-59 years, our study revealed a correlation between elevated AIP and TyG-BMI levels and heightened sarcopenia risk. Moreover, TyG-BMI has better diagnostic validity than AIP.

Abstract
Background The association between TyG-BMI index and the risk of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a recently identified biomarker indicating insulin resistance, has yet to be elucidated. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between TyG-BMI index and the risk of OSA using the NHANES database. Methods Analyses were performed on NHANES data conducted between 2015 and 2018. Logistic regression, stratified analyses, curve-fitting analyses, and threshold effects analyses were utilized to assess the association between TyG-BMI index and the risk of OSA. Results The study included 4,588 participants. Multifactorial logistic regression analyses found a significant association between TyG-BMI and increased risk of OSA [OR: 1.54 (CI:1.39-1.70)]. In stratified analyses, age interacted with the association, with TyG-BMI being associated with increased risk of OSA only in a subgroup of subjects younger than 60 years [1.31 (1.14-1.50)], but gender, smoking status, and alcohol use, did not influence the association. The presence of diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases also modified the association, but the number of the included subjects with such conditions was significantly lower, therefore the significance of associations was not observed in those subgroups. Additionally, the risk was non-linearly associated, with the inflection point of TyG-BMI at 12.09, after which the lower slope in the risk was observed. Conclusion This study demonstrates that elevated levels of the TyG-BMI index are correlated with risk for OSA, underscoring the significance of these findings in facilitating early prevention or timely intervention for OSA.

Relationship between changes in the triglyceride glucose-body mass index and frail development trajectory and incidence in middle-aged and elderly individuals: a national cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:304. [PMID: 39152445 PMCID: PMC11330012 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02373-1] [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: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 08/19/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance is linked to an increased risk of frailty, yet the comprehensive relationship between the triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI), which reflects weight, and frailty, remains unclear. This relationship is investigated in this study. METHODS Data from 9135 participants in the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (2011-2020) were analysed. Baseline TyG-BMI, changes in the TyG-BMI and cumulative TyG-BMI between baseline and 2015, along with the frailty index (FI) over nine years, were calculated. Participants were grouped into different categories based on TyG-BMI changes using K-means clustering. FI trajectories were assessed using a group-based trajectory model. Logistic and Cox regression models were used to analyse the associations between the TyG-BMI and FI trajectory and frail incidence. Nonlinear relationships were explored using restricted cubic splines, and a linear mixed-effects model was used to evaluate FI development speed. Weighted quantile regression was used to identify the primary contributing factors. RESULTS Four classes of changes in the TyG-BMI and two FI trajectories were identified. Individuals in the third (OR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.10-1.42) and fourth (OR = 1.83, 95% CI: 1.61-2.09) quartiles of baseline TyG-BMI, those with consistently second to highest (OR = 1.49, 95% CI: 1.32-1.70) and the highest (OR = 2.17, 95% CI: 1.84-2.56) TyG-BMI changes, and those in the third (OR = 1.20, 95% CI: 1.05-1.36) and fourth (OR = 1.94, 95% CI: 1.70-2.22) quartiles of the cumulative TyG-BMI had greater odds of experiencing a rapid FI trajectory. Higher frail risk was noted in those in the fourth quartile of baseline TyG-BMI (HR = 1.42, 95% CI: 1.28-1.58), with consistently second to highest (HR = 1.23, 95% CI: 1.12-1.34) and the highest TyG-BMI changes (HR = 1.58, 95% CI: 1.42-1.77), and those in the third (HR = 1.10, 95% CI: 1.00-1.21) and fourth quartile of cumulative TyG-BMI (HR = 1.46, 95% CI: 1.33-1.60). Participants with persistently second-lowest to the highest TyG-BMI changes (β = 0.15, 0.38 and 0.76 respectively) and those experiencing the third to fourth cumulative TyG-BMI (β = 0.25 and 0.56, respectively) demonstrated accelerated FI progression. A U-shaped association was observed between TyG-BMI levels and both rapid FI trajectory and higher frail risk, with BMI being the primary factor. CONCLUSION A higher TyG-BMI is associated with the rapid development of FI trajectory and a greater frail risk. However, excessively low TyG-BMI levels also appear to contribute to frail development. Maintaining a healthy TyG-BMI, especially a healthy BMI, may help prevent or delay the frail onset.

Association between the triglyceride glucose-body mass index and future cardiovascular disease risk in a population with Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic syndrome stage 0-3: a nationwide prospective cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:292. [PMID: 39113004 PMCID: PMC11308445 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02352-6] [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: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 07/06/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association (AHA) has recently introduced the concept of Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) syndrome, which is the result of an increasing emphasis on the interplay of metabolic, renal and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Furthermore, there is substantial evidence of a correlation between the triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI ) and CVD as an assessment of insulin resistance (IR). However, it remains unknown whether this correlation exists in population with CKM syndrome. METHODS All data for this study were obtained from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). The exposure was the participants' TyG-BMI at baseline, which was calculated using a combination of triglycerides (TG), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and body mass index (BMI). The primary outcome was CVD, which were determined by the use of a standardised questionnaire during follow-up. To examine the relationship between TyG-BMI and CVD incidence in population with CKM syndrome, both Cox regression analyses and restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression analyses were performed. RESULTS A total of 7376 participants were included in the final analysis. Of these, 1139, 1515, 1839, and 2883 were in CKM syndrome stages 0, 1, 2, and 3, respectively, at baseline. The gender distribution was 52.62% female, and the mean age was 59.17 ± 9.28 (years). The results of the fully adjusted COX regression analyses indicated that there was a 6.5% increase in the risk of developing CVD for each 10-unit increase in TyG-BMI,95% confidence interval (CI):1.041-1.090. The RCS regression analyses demonstrated a positive linear association between TyG-BMI and the incidence of CVD in the CKM syndrome population (P for overall < 0.001, P for nonlinear = 0.355). CONCLUSIONS This cohort study demonstrated a positive linear association between TyG-BMI index and increased CVD incidence in a population with CKM syndrome stage 0-3. This finding suggests that enhanced assessment of TyG-BMI index may provide a more convenient and effective tool for individuals at risk for CVD in CKM syndrome stage 0-3.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The TyG index has been linked with cardiometabolic diseases. Our study aimed to investigate the specific relationship between the triglyceride and glucose index (TyG) and both all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in diabetic patients. METHODS AND RESULTS We enrolled 3120 participants with diabetes from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The TyG index was calculated using the formula ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dL) × fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2]. Hazard ratios (HRs) of TyG associated with mortality risk were assessed using Cox proportional hazard regression models. Over a follow-up period of 10.8 thousand person-years, we observed 768 all-cause deaths and 155 cardiovascular deaths. Compared to the reference quartile, the multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for all-cause mortality were 1.02 (1.01-1.05; p = 0.008) in the fourth quartile. Dose-response analysis revealed a non-linear association. However, no significant associations were found between the TyG index and cardiovascular mortality. CONCLUSIONS The TyG index exhibited a non-linear association with the risk of all-cause mortality in diabetic patients.

Association between different triglyceride-glucose index combinations with obesity indicators and arthritis: results from two nationally representative population-based study. Eur J Med Res 2024; 29:389. [PMID: 39068497 PMCID: PMC11282701 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-024-01992-4] [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: 06/17/2024] [Accepted: 07/20/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) and arthritis are strongly associated, and the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index combinations with obesity indicators [including TyG-BMI (glucose triglyceride-body mass index), TyG-WC (glucose triglyceride-waist circumference), and TyG-WHtR (glucose triglyceride-waist height ratio)] has recently been recognized as a more effective indicator for assessing IR. However, there is a lack of research on its association with arthritis, and it is also important to assess in different populations. METHODS The analysis utilized data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Arthritis diagnosis relied on self-reporting confirmed by physicians. The association of TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR with arthritis was analyzed through weighted logistic regression models, and exploring nonlinear effects with restricted cubic spline (RCS) models. Secondary and sensitivity analyses included receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis, comparisons of z score-related odds ratios, subgroup analyses, and multiple imputation. RESULTS The study involved 6141 CHARLS participants and 17,091 NHANES participants. Adjusting for confounding variables, TyG-BMI and TyG-WHtR demonstrate a positive correlation with arthritis prevalence in both CHARLS (TyG-BMI: OR = 1.02, 95% CI 1.00-1.04; TyG-WHtR: OR = 1.13, 95% CI 1.03-1.24) and NHANES (TyG-BMI: OR = 1.07, 95% CI 1.06-1.08; TyG-WHtR: OR = 1.50, 95% CI 1.40-1.60). RCS regression analysis demonstrated a significant nonlinear association. ROC analysis indicated that TyG-BMI and TyG-WHtR were superior to TyG for the diagnosis of arthritis in both CHARLS and NHANES. CONCLUSIONS TyG-BMI and TyG-WHtR demonstrate a positive correlation with arthritis prevalence in both Chinese and the U.S. populations, displaying superior diagnostic relevance compared to TyG.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its diagnostic value for NAFLD in non-obese individuals. METHODS We retrospectively collected the data of non-obese individuals (BMI < 25 kg/m2) undergoing routine health examination at Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University between May, 2020 and December, 2023, who all received abdominal ultrasound examination for NAFLD screening. The nonlinear relationship between TyG and non-obese NAFLD was explored using restricted cubic splines (RCS), and LASSO regression was used for variable screening; the correlation between TyG and NAFLD risk was analyzed using multivariate logistic regression. The diagnostic value of TyG for non-obese NAFLD was assessed using receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves and sensitivity analysis. RESULTS A total of 3723 non-obese subjects were enrolled in this study, including 432 (11.6%) patients with NAFLD. Compared with the healthy individuals, the patients with NAFLD had significant elevations of systolic and diastolic blood pressures, total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-C, blood uric acid, fasting blood glucose, and TyG index and a decreased HDL-C level (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression revealed that for each one-unit increase of TyG, the risk of non-obese NAFLD increased by 2.2 folds (OR=3.22, 95% CI: 2.53-4.12, P < 0.001). Compared with a TyG index in the lowest quartile Q1, a TyG index in the Q2, Q3 and Q4 quartiles was associated with an increased risk of NAFLD by 1.52 folds (OR=2.52, 95% CI: 1.20-5.95), 3.56 folds (OR=4.56, 95% CI: 2.28-10.46), and 8.66-folds (OR=9.66, 95% CI: 4.83-22.18), respectively. The RCS curve demonstrated a significant linear correlation between TyG index and non-obese NALFD risk (P for nonlinear= 0.019). For diagnosing non-obese NALFD, TyG index had an area under ROC curve of 0.819 with a sensitivity of 78.0% and a specificity of 71.2%. CONCLUSION An increase of TyG index is correlated with increased risks of NAFLD in non-obese individuals and can serve as an indicator for screening early NAFLD in healthy individuals.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have suggested that triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) is associated with cardiovascular mortality in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. However, the predictive value of TyG-BMI in the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains unclear. Methods In total, 408 AMI patients who underwent PCI were consecutively included in this study. All included patients were then divided into three groups according to tertiles of TyG-BMI. The association between TyG-BMI and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) were investigated. Results Participants were divided into three groups: tertile 1(≤199.4, n=136), tertile 2 (199.4-231.8, n=136), and tertile 3 (≥231.8, n=136). Eighty (19.6%) patients had MACCEs: 18 (13.2%) in tertile 1, 26 (19.1%) in tertile 2, and 36 (25.7%) in tertile 3. The incidence of MACCEs increased as the tertiles of TyG-BMI increased (p<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that diabetes mellitus and TyG-BMI were independent predictors of MACCEs in AMI patients after PCI (p<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed that when TyG-BMI was ≥192.4, the sensitivity and specificity were 60.1% and 65.4%, respectively, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.632 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.562-0.703; p < 0.001). Conclusion Elevated TyG-BMI level was an independent predictor of the composite MACCEs in patients with AMI after PCI.

Prospective cohort studies underscore the association of abnormal glycemic measures with all-cause and cause-specific mortalities. iScience 2024; 27:110233. [PMID: 39021808 PMCID: PMC11253504 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.110233] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
The role of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) in predicting all-cause and cause-specific mortalities remains elusive. This study included 384,420 adults from the Shanghai cohort and the UK Biobank (UKB) cohort. After multivariable adjustment in the Cox models, FPG ≥7.0 mmol/L or HbA1c ≥ 6.5% increased the risk of all-cause mortality, FPG ≥5.6 mmol/L or HbA1c ≥ 6.5% increased CVD-related mortality, and higher or lower TyG index increased all-cause and CVD-related mortalities in the Shanghai cohort; FPG ≥5.6 mmol/L, HbA1c ≥ 5.7%, TyG index <8.31 or ≥9.08 increased the risks of all-cause, CVD-related, and cancer-related mortalities in the UKB cohort. FPG or HbA1c increased the discrimination of the conventional risk model in predicting all-cause and CVD-related mortalities in both cohorts. Thus, increased levels of FPG and HbA1c and U-shaped TyG index increase the risks of all-cause especially CVD-related mortalities.

Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:262. [PMID: 39026233 PMCID: PMC11264797 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02354-4] [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: 05/02/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and its derived index, the triglyceride glucose-waist height ratio (TyG-WHtR), with mortality and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remains unclear. METHODS This study enrolled 6627 adults aged 18 and above diagnosed NAFLD from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 1999-2018). Binary weighted logistic regression analyses, cox proportional hazards model and restricted cubic spline (RCS) were used to analyze the relationship between TyG and TyG-WHtR with all-cause mortality, CVD mortality and CVDs. Mediation analysis explored the mediating role of glycohemoglobin, insulin and hypertension in the above relationships. Meanwhile, the incremental predictive value of the TyG index and TyG-WHtR was further assessed. RESULTS Except for no significant association between the TyG index and both all-cause mortality and chronic heart failure (CHF), both TyG and TyG-WHtR exhibited significant positive correlations or trends of positive correlation with all-cause mortality, CVD mortality, total-CVD, CHF, coronary heart disease (CHD) and angina pectoris. For all-cause mortality, CVD mortality and CHF, TyG-WHtR was a better predictor than TyG (TyG-WHtR: HR 1.31, 95%CI 1.03-1.66; HR 2.22, 95%CI 1.42-3.47; OR 3.99, 95%CI 1.79-8.93). In contrast, TyG index demonstrated a stronger association with total-CVD, CHD and angina pectoris (TyG index: OR 2.00, 95%CI 1.26-3.18; OR 1.85, 95%CI 1.19-2.91; OR 2.93, 95%CI 1.23-7.00). RCS analysis showed that after adjusting for covariates, most of the aforementioned relationships were linear(P overall < 0.0001, P-nonlinear > 0.05), while the associations of the TyG index and TyG-WHtR with all-cause mortality and CHF were non-linear(P overall < 0.0001, P nonlinear < 0.05). The addition of the TyG index and TyG-WHtR to the basic model for outcomes improved the C-statistics, net reclassification improvement value, and integrated discrimination improvement value. CONCLUSIONS The predictive value of TyG or TyG-WHtR for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular risk in NAFLD patients was significant. The TyG index and TyG-WHtR might be valid predictors of cardiovascular outcomes of patients with NAFLD.

Non-insulin-based insulin resistance indices predict early neurological deterioration in elderly and middle-aged acute ischemic stroke patients in Northeast China. Sci Rep 2024; 14:16138.

Abstract
Insulin resistance (IR) has a strong association with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) occurrence and poor prognosis of afflicted patients. However, the relation between early neurological deterioration (END) risk and IR in elderly and middle-aged patients remains to be thoroughly studied. Here, we investigated the relationship between four indicators of IR and the risk of END in middle-aged patients patients with AIS. The study retrospectively analyzed 1696 elderly and middle-aged patients having AIS between January 2019 and June 2023. Within 7 days of admission, the patients were then stratified relying upon alternations in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale. Subsequently, we employed logistic regression analyses for assessing each index correlation with END on the basis of the tertiles of TyG index (TyGI), triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein ratio (TG/HDL), TyG-BMI, alongside IR metabolic score (METS-IR). These four indicators were significantly heightened in the END group (n = 680) in comparison to the non-END group (n = 1016). When grouping using tertiles, the four aforementioned indicators emerged as independent risk factors for END occurrence, whether or not adjusted for confounding factors. The results revealed a progressive elevation in END occurrence risk with the rise in the tertile of each indicator. Finally, we utilized receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for assessing the indicators' predictive power. TyG-BMI, TyGI, TG/HDL, and METS-IRs' area under the curve (AUC) were, respectively, 0.736 (95% CI: 0.712-0.761; P < 0.001), 0. 694 (95% CI: 0.668-0.721; P < 0.001), 0.684 (95% CI: 0.658-0.711; P < 0.001), and 0.722 (95% CI: 0.697-0.747; P < 0.001). IR is associated with END risk in middle-aged AIS patients. TyG-BMI, TyGI, TG/HDL, and METS-IR are independent risk factors of END in elderly and middle-aged AIS patients. Simultaneously, these four IR indicators have significant predictive power for END.

Abstract
The relationship between the triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) index and Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, cognition, and brain structure remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate these associations, focusing on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers, cognitive measures, and brain imaging data. Eight hundred and fifty-five non-demented participants were included. Linear regression was used to explore associations between the TyG-BMI index and AD pathology, cognition, and brain structure. The association between the TyG-BMI index and AD risk was assessed using Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards models. Longitudinal relationships were assessed using linear mixed-effects models. Mediation analyses were conducted to examine AD pathology's potential mediating role between the TyG-BMI index and cognition as well as brain structure. In the linear regression analyses, higher TyG-BMI levels were associated with increased Aβ42 and decreased Tau, pTau, Tau/Aβ42, pTau/Aβ42, and pTau/Tau. Positive correlations were observed with mini-mental state examination (MMSE), memory (MEM), executive function (EF), and the volumes of the hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, and middle temporal regions, while negative correlations were found with Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale (ADAS). Longitudinally, the TyG-BMI index was inversely associated with ADAS, and positively with MMSE, MEM, EF, hippocampus, entorhinal, and middle temporal. High TyG-BMI levels were correlated with lower AD risk (HR 0.996 [0.994, 0.999]). Mediation analyses revealed AD pathology mediated the association between TyG-BMI index and cognition as well as brain structure. Additionally, the TyG-BMI index could mediate cognitive changes by influencing brain structure. The TyG-BMI index is associated with AD pathology, cognition, and brain structure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and its combination with obesity indicators can predict cardiovascular diseases (CVD). However, there is limited research on the relationship between changes in the triglyceride glucose-waist height ratio (TyG-WHtR) and CVD. Our study aims to investigate the relationship between the change in the TyG-WHtR and the risk of CVD. METHODS Participants were from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). CVD was defined as self-reporting heart disease and stroke. Participants were divided into three groups based on changes in TyG-WHtR using K-means cluster analysis. Multivariable binary logistic regression analysis was used to examine the association between different groups (based on the change of TyG-WHtR) and CVD. A restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression model was used to explore the potential nonlinear association of the cumulative TyG-WHtR and CVD events. RESULTS During follow-up between 2015 and 2020, 623 (18.8%) of 3312 participants developed CVD. After adjusting for various potential confounders, compared to the participants with consistently low and stable TyG-WHtR, the risk of CVD was significantly higher in participants with moderate and increasing TyG-WHtR (OR 1.28, 95%CI 1.01-1.63) and participants with high TyG-WHtR with a slowly increasing trend (OR 1.58, 95%CI 1.16-2.15). Higher levels of cumulative TyG-WHtR were independently associated with a higher risk of CVD events (per SD, OR 1.27, 95%CI 1.12-1.43). CONCLUSIONS For middle-aged and older adults, changes in the TyG-WHtR are independently associated with the risk of CVD. Maintaining a favorable TyG index, effective weight management, and a reasonable waist circumference contribute to preventing CVD.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to investigate the association of the triglyceride glucose-body mass index(TyG-BMI), metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR) with regression to normoglycaemia, and further to compare the value of the four insulin resistance(IR) related indices(TyG-BMI, METS-IR, TyG and triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio) in identifying regressions to normoglycaemia from prediabetes. METHODS A total of 15,025 patients with prediabetes from the DATA-DRYAD database were included. Cox proportional hazards regression models and restricted cubic spline functions were performed to explore the association and nonlinearity between the indices with the incidence rate of normoglycaemia. Sensitivity and subgroup analyses evaluated the robustness of our findings. RESULTS Compared with the first quintile, TyG-BMI and METS-IR was negatively linked with the probability of regression to normoglycaemia from prediabetes, the adjusted effect size of the highest quintiles of METS-IR were the most obvious (HR:0.456,95% CI:0.4-0.519), followed by TG/HDL (HR:0.792, 95% CI:0.733-0.856), TyG-BMI (HR:0.816, 95% CI:0.73-0.911) and TyG (HR:0.841, 95% CI: 0.754-0.937) (all p for trend <0.001). A 1.0 SD increase in METS-IR induced a 43% decrease in the probability of regression to normoglycaemia, with 9.8% for TyG-BMI. There were nonlinear associations between TyG-BMI and METS-IR and outcomes, with the inflection point of the TyG-BMI being 218.2 and that of the METS-IR being 37. CONCLUSIONS The METS-IR might be the most superior indicator among the four non-insulin indices in identifying regressions to normoglycaemia from prediabetes in clinical application. The inflection points of the METS-IR and TyG-BMI may be instructive therapeutic points for assessing the status of prediabetes in advance and making more appropriate management and health care decisions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic value of triglyceride-glucose (TyG) related indices in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is still unclear. This study aimed to determine the associations between TyG-related indices and long-term mortality in this population. METHODS The data came from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) and National Death Index (NDI). Baseline TyG, TyG combining with body mass index (TyG-BMI), and TyG combining with waist circumference (TyG-WC) indices were calculated, and mortality status was determined through 31 December 2019. Multivariate Cox and restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression models were performed to evaluate the relationship between TyG-related indices and long-term mortality among participants with NAFLD/MASLD. In addition, we examined the association between TyG-related indices and all-cause mortality within subgroups defined by age, sex, race/ethnicity, and fibrosis-4 index (FIB-4). RESULTS There were 10,390 participants with completed ultrasonography and laboratory data included in this study. NAFLD was diagnosed in 3672/10,390 (35.3%) participants, while MASLD in 3556/10,390 (34.2%) amongst the overall population. The multivariate Cox regression analyses showed high levels of TyG-related indices, particularly in TyG-BMI and TyG-WC indices were significantly associated with the all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and diabetes mortality in either NAFLD or MASLD. The RCS curves showed a nonlinear trend between three TyG-related indices with all-cause mortality in either NAFLD or MASLD. Subgroup analyses showed that TyG-BMI and TyG-WC indices were more suitable for predicting all-cause mortality in patients without advanced fibrosis. CONCLUSION Our study highlights the clinical value of TyG-related indices in predicting the survival of the NAFLD/MASLD population. TyG-BMI and TyG-WC indices would be the surrogate biomarkers for the follow-up of the population without advanced fibrosis.

Abstract
Background Insulin resistance (IR) is a pivotal pathogenic component of metabolic diseases. It is crucial to identify convenient and reliable indicators of insulin resistance for its early detection. This study aimed at assessing the predictive ability of seven novel obesity and lipid-related indices. Methods A total of 5,847 female and 3,532 male healthy subjects were included in the study. The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI), TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC), lipid accumulation products (LAP), body roundness index (BRI), body adiposity index (BAI), and visceral adiposity index (VAI) were measured and calculated using the established formulae. IR was diagnosed using the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index over the third quantile. Results The levels of all seven lipid-related indices were significantly higher in subjects with higher HOMA-IR values than in those with lower HOMA-IR values. These indices displayed moderate to high effectiveness [receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve-area under the curve (AUC) > 0.6] in predicting IR. Among them, TyG-BMI (AUC: 0.729), LAP (AUC: 0.708), and TyG-WC (AUC: 0.698) showed the strongest association with HOMA-IR. In the female population, the AUC for TyG-BMI, LAP, and TyG-WC in predicting IR was 0.732, 0.705, and 0.718, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed the optimal cut-off values of those indicators in predicting IR as follows: TyG-BMI: male subjects - 115.16 [odds ratio (OR) = 6.05, 95% CI: 5.09-7.19], female subjects - 101.58 (OR = 4.55, 95% CI: 4.00-5.16); LAP: male subjects - 25.99 (OR = 4.53, 95% CI: 3.82-5.38), female subjects - 16.11 (OR = 3.65, 95% CI: 3.22-4.14); and TyG-WC: male subjects - 409.43 (OR = 5.23, 95% CI: 4.48-6.24), female subjects - 342.48 (OR = 4.07, 95% CI: 3.59-4.61). Conclusion TyG-index-related parameters and LAP appear to be effective predictors of IR in the Chinese population. Specifically, TyG-BMI may be the most appropriate predictor of IR.

Karaaslan H, Inan H, Turkmen AT, Altintas I, Uyar N, Eren MA. Comparison of triglyceride-glucose index and anthropometric obesity indices in predicting severe grades of hepatic steatosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease among non-diabetic obese individuals. HEPATOLOGY FORUM 2024; 5:113-119. [PMID: 39006142 PMCID: PMC11237241 DOI: 10.14744/hf.2023.2023.0049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 09/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
Background and Aim The triglyceride glucose index (TyG) has been proposed as a promising indicator of both insulin resistance (IR) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the efficacy of the TyG index in predicting NAFLD has not been adequately studied, particularly in obese individuals. Materials and Methods We analyzed 190 morbidly obese individuals. The TyG index, anthropometric obesity indices, homeostatic model assessment (HOMA-IR), and biochemical parameters were compared. NAFLD was diagnosed by hepatic ultrasonography and classified into four grades (0, 1, 2, and 3). Individuals in grades 2 and 3 are considered to have severe steatosis, while those in grades 0 and 1 do not. Results The area under the curve (AUC) values of the TyG index, body mass index, neck circumferences, waist-to-hip ratio, and HOMA-IR did not differ significantly in predicting severe steatosis (0.640, 0.742, 0.725, 0.620, and 0.624 respectively). However, the AUC values of waist circumference and alanine aminotransferase provided better predictions than the TyG index (0.782, 0.744, and 0.640 respectively). Conclusion The TyG index is highly effective in predicting both the presence and severity of NAFLD. However, it did not outperform simple obesity indices in predicting NAFLD and its severity in obese patients.

Association of Triglyceride Glucose-Derived Indices with Recurrent Events Following Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease. J Obes Metab Syndr 2024; 33:133-142. [PMID: 38714326 PMCID: PMC11224920 DOI: 10.7570/jomes23055] [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: 09/21/2023] [Revised: 10/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Triglyceride glucose (TyG) and TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI) are reliable surrogate indices of insulin resistance and used for risk stratification and outcome prediction in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Here, we inserted estimated average glucose (eAG) into the TyG (TyAG) and TyG-BMI (TyAG-BMI) as derived parameters and explored their clinical significance in cardiovascular risk prediction. Methods This was a population-based cohort study of 9,944 Chinese patients with ASCVD. The baseline admission fasting glucose and A1C-derived eAG values were recorded. Cardiovascular events (CVEs) that occurred during an average of 38.5 months of follow-up were recorded. We stratified the patients into four groups by quartiles of the parameters. Baseline data and outcomes were analyzed. Results Distribution of the TyAG and TyAG-BMI indices shifted slightly toward higher values (the right side) compared with TyG and TyG-BMI, respectively. The baseline levels of cardiovascular risk factors and coronary severity increased with quartile of TyG, TyAG, TyG-BMI, and TyAG-BMI (all P<0.001). The multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios for CVEs when the highest and lowest quartiles were compared from low to high were 1.02 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.77 to 1.36; TyG), 1.29 (95% CI, 0.97 to 1.73; TyAG), 1.59 (95% CI, 1.01 to 2.58; TyG-BMI), and 1.91 (95% CI, 1.16 to 3.15; TyAG-BMI). The latter two showed statistical significance. Conclusion This study suggests that TyAG and TyAG-BMI exhibit more information than TyG and TyG-BMI in disease progression among patients with ASCVD. The TyAG-BMI index provided better predictive performance for CVEs than other parameters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Triglyceride glucose (TyG) index combined with obesity-related indicators [triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI), triglyceride glucose-waist to height ratio (TyG-WHtR), triglyceride glucose-waist circumference (TyG-WC)], represents emerging methodologies for assessing insulin resistance. The objective of this investigation was to explore the correlation between TyG-related indices and gallstone disease. METHODS The study included 3740 adults from the 2017-2020 period of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR were integrated as both continuous and categorical variables within the multivariate logistic model, respectively to evaluate the connection between various TyG-related indices and gallstone disease. Additionally, restriction cubic splines and subgroup analysis were employed to deepen our understanding of this relationship. RESULTS When analyzed as continuous variables, positive correlations were observed between TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR and gallstone disease. The OR(95%CI) were 1.063(1.045,1.082) for TyG-BMI (per 10-unit), 1.026(1.018,1.034) for TyG-WC (per 10-unit) and 1.483(1.314,1.676) for TyG-WHtR (per 1-unit), respectively. When categorized into quartiles, these three TyG-related indices still show statistically significant associations with gallstone disease. Descending in order, the diagnostic capability for gallstone disease is demonstrated as follows: TyG-WHtR (AUC = 0.667), TyG-BMI (AUC = 0.647), and TyG-WC (AUC = 0.640). CONCLUSION There were significantly positive associations between TyG-related indices, including TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR, and gallstone disease. Of these indices, TyG-WHtR demonstrated the most favorable performance in identifying the risk of gallstone disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Asymptomatic atherosclerosis is an important early marker of vascular damage and, among its risk factors, hemorheological alterations play an important role. PATIENTS AND METHODS In a cohort of 85 non-diabetic subjects with asymptomatic carotid atherosclerosis (ACA), we have measured whole blood viscosity (cWBV) according to the haematocrit and plasma fibrinogen level. The cWBV distinguish the subgroup of ACA subjects with 3-5 cardiovascular risk factors (CRFs) from that with 1-2 CRFs and the same behavior is present for haematocrit and plasma fibrinogen level. Therefore, we divided the whole group of ACA subjects according to the medians of the four surrogate indexes with an insulin resistance degree of TG/HDL-C, TyG, VAI and LAP. RESULTS The analysis of the correlation between cWBV and each index of insulin resistance has shown that no correlation is present in the whole group and in the group of ACA subjects with 1-2 CRFs, while in the subgroup with 3-5 CRFs there is a positive correlation between cWBV with TG/HDL-C and TyG at a low degree of statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS The date underline that subjects with this clinical condition have an unaltered evaluation of the cWBV compared to the other indices.

Abstract
Background Insulin resistance (IR) is closely related to the development of cardiovascular diseases. Triglyceride-glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) has been proven to be a reliable surrogate of IR, but the relationship between TyG-BMI and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is unknown. The present study aims to determine the effects of TyG-BMI on the clinical prognosis of critically ill patients with AMI. Methods The data of AMI patients were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. All patients were divided into four groups according to the TyG-BMI quartile. Outcomes were defined as 30-, 90-, 180-, and 365-day all-cause mortality. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curve was used to compare survival rate between groups. Meanwhile, Cox regression analysis and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to explore the relationship between TyG-BMI index and outcome events. Results A total of 1,188 critically ill patients with AMI were included in this study. They were divided into four groups according to TyG-BMI quartiles, there were significant differences in 90-, 180-, and 365-day all-cause mortality while there was no difference in 30-day all-cause mortality. Interestingly, with the increase of TyG-BMI, the 90-, 180-, and 365-day survival rate increased first and then gradually decreased, but the survival rate after decreasing was still higher than that in the group with the lowest TyG-BMI. U-shaped relationships between TyG-BMI index and 90-, 180-, and 365-day all-cause mortality were identified using RCS curve and the inflection point was 311.1, 316.5, and 320.1, respectively, whereas the TyG-BMI index was not non-linearly associated with 30-day all-cause mortality. The results of Cox proportional hazard regression analysis are consistent with those of RCS analysis. Conclusion U-shaped relationships are existed between the TyG-BMI index and 90-, 180-, and 365-day all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with AMI, but not 30-day all-cause mortality. The TyG-BMI index can be used as an effective index for early prevention of critically ill patients with AMI.

Abstract
Background The prevalence of diabetes has risen fast with a considerable weighted prevalence of undiagnosed diabetes or uncontrolled diabetes. Then it becomes more necessary to timely screen out and monitor high-risk populations who are likely to be ignored during the COVID-19 pandemic. To classify and find the common risks of undiagnosed diabetes and uncontrolled diabetes, it's beneficial to put specific risk control measures into effect for comprehensive primary care. Especially, there is a need for accurate yet accessible prediction models. Objective Based on a cross-sectional study and secondary analysis on the health examination held in Changchun City (2016), we aimed to evaluate the factors associated with hyperglycemia, analyze the management status of T2DM, and determine the best cutoff value of incidence of diabetes in the first-degree relatives to suggest the necessity of early diagnosis of diabetes after first screening. Results A total of 5658 volunteers were analyzed. Prevalence of T2DM and impaired fasting glucose were 8.4% (n=477) and 11.5% (n=648), respectively. There were 925 participants (16.3%) with a family history of T2DM in their first-degree relatives. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that family history was associated with hyperglycemia. Among the 477 patients with T2DM, 40.9% had not been previously diagnosed. The predictive equation was calculated with the following logistic regression parameters with 0.71 (95% CI: 0.67-0.76) of the area under the ROC curve, 64.0% of sensitivity and 29% of specificity (P < 0.001): P = \frac{1}{1 + e^{-z}}, where z = -3.08 + [0.89 (Family history-group) + 0.69 (age-group)+ 0.25 (BMI-group)]. Positive family history was associated with the diagnosis of T2DM, but not glucose level in the diagnosed patients. The best cutoff value of incidence of diabetes in the first-degree relatives was 9.55% (P < 0.001). Conclusions Family history of diabetes was independently associated with glucose dysfunction. Classification by the first-degree relatives with diabetes is prominent for targeting high-risk population. Meanwhile, positive family history of diabetes was associated with diabetes being diagnosed rather than the glycemic control in patients who had been diagnosed. It's necessary to emphasize the linkage between early diagnosis and positive family history for high proportions of undiagnosed T2DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index serves as a convenient indicator of insulin resistance, which has been demonstrated to be associated with diabetic retinopathy(DR). However, the relationship between TyG-WHR, a novel index combining TyG with the central obesity indicator WHR, and retinopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes remains unclear. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the correlation between TyG-WHR and DR in adult patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 1702 patients with T2DM. Logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the associations between TyG-WHR and DR. Additionally, the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was utilized to assess the predictive efficacy of TyG-WHR for DR. RESULTS Patients in higher TyG-WHR quartiles demonstrated an increased presence of DR, and TyG-WHR increased with the severity of DR. Moreover, TyG-WHR remained significantly associated with a higher odds ratio (OR) for DR (OR 1.223, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.078-1.387, p < 0.05) after multivariate adjustment. Additionally, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the optimal cutoff value for TyG-WHR in predicting DR presence was 8.8983, with a sensitivity of 61.00%, specificity of 48.50%, and area under the curve (AUC) of 0.555. CONCLUSIONS In patients with T2DM, TyG-WHR was significantly elevated in those with DR and independently associated with an increased risk of DR presence in Chinese patients. This implies that TyG-WHR could potentially serve as a valuable and dependable biomarker for DR, underscoring the importance of giving greater consideration to T2DM patients with elevated TyG-WHR to effectively prevent and mitigate the onset of DR and associated adverse health outcomes.

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.

Tian C, Liu J, Ma M, Wang S, Zhang Y, Feng Z, Peng B, Xiang D, Wang B, Geng B. Association between surrogate marker of insulin resistance and bone mineral density in US adults without diabetes. Arch Osteoporos 2024; 19:42. [PMID: 38796579 DOI: 10.1007/s11657-024-01395-2] [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: 11/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
This study examines the relationship between TyG-BMI, an indicator of insulin resistance, and bone mineral density in US adults without diabetes, revealing a positive association. The findings suggest that higher TyG-BMI levels may be linked to a lower risk of osteoporosis, providing a basis for future research in this area. OBJECTIVE Patients with osteoporosis are often diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes. Insulin resistance is a prediabetic state, and triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) has been recognized as a potential predictor of it, valuable in assessing prediabetes, atherosclerosis, and other diseases. However, the validity of TyG-BMI in osteoporosis studies remains inadequate. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between TyG-BMI and BMD as well as the effect of TyG-BMI on the odds of developing osteoporosis in US adults without diabetes. METHODS National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data were obtained. The relationship between TyG-BMI and BMD was evaluated via multivariate linear regression models. Smoothed curve fitting and threshold effect analysis explored potential non-linear relationships, and age, gender, and race subgroup analyses were performed. In addition, multivariate logistic regression models were employed to analyze its potential role in the development of osteoporosis. RESULTS In a study of 6501 participants, we observed a significant positive correlation between the TyG-BMI index and BMD, even after adjusting for covariates and categorizing TyG-BMI. The study identified specific TyG-BMI folding points-112.476 for the total femur BMD, 100.66 for the femoral neck BMD, 107.291 for the intertrochanter BMD, and 116.58 for the trochanter BMD-indicating shifts in the relationship's strength at these thresholds. While the association's strength slightly decreased after the folding points, it remained significant. Subgroup analyses further confirmed the positive TyG-BMI and BMD correlation. Multivariate linear regression analyses indicated a lower osteoporosis risk in participants with higher TyG-BMI levels, particularly in menopausal women over 40 and men over 60. CONCLUSION This study suggests a positive correlation between BMD and TyG-BMI in US adults without diabetes. Individuals with higher levels of TyG-BMI may have a lower risk of osteoporosis.

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
BACKGROUND Frailty is a dynamic geriatric condition. Limited studies have examined the association of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and its related indicators [TyG index, triglyceride glucose-waist to height ratio (TyG-WHtR), triglyceride glucose-waist circumference (TyG-WC), and triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI)] with frailty, and the potential links among them remain unclear. On the basis of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), this study investigated the potential relationships of the TyG index and its related indices with frailty. METHODS This research included 7,965 participants from NHANES 2003-2018. The relationship of the TyG index and its related indices with frailty was investigated with binary logistic regression analyses, restricted cubic spline (RCS), and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Potential influences were further investigated through stratified analyses and interaction tests. RESULTS The prevalence of frailty in the participants of this study was 25.59%, with a average frailty index of 0.16 (0.00). In the three regression analysis models, the continuous TyG index and its associated indices were positively associated with frailty. In addition, quartiles of TyG, TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR, and TyG-BMI were significantly associated with increased frailty prevalence in the fully adjusted models (TyG Q4 vs. Q1, OR = 1.58, 95% CI: 1.19, 2.09, P = 0.002; TyG-WC Q4 vs. Q1, OR = 2.40, 95% CI: 1.90, 3.04, P < 0.001; TyG-WHtR Q4 vs. Q1, OR = 2.26, 95% CI: 1.82, 2.81, P < 0.001; TyG- BMI Q4 vs. Q1, OR = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.76, 2.64, P < 0.001). According to RCS analysis, TyG, TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR, and TyG-BMI were linearly and positively associated with frailty. ROC curves revealed that TyG-WHtR (AUC: 0.654) had greater diagnostic value for frailty than TyG (AUC: 0.604), TyG-BMI (AUC: 0.621), and TyG-WC (AUC: 0.629). All of the stratified analyses and interaction tests showed similar results. CONCLUSIONS Elevated TyG and its associaed indices are associated with an increased prevalence of frailty. Reasonable control of blood glucose and blood lipids, and avoidance of obesity, may aid in reducing the occurrence of frailty in middle-aged and older adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) significantly contributes to cardiovascular disease (CVD) development. Triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) are recognised as convenient proxies for IR. However, their relationship with sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) remains unclear. METHODS This prospective cohort analysis included 355,242 UK Biobank participants with available TyG index and TyG-BMI data and no history of CVD. Cox proportional risk models assessed the association between the TyG index, TyG-BMI and SCA risk. Additionally, Accelerated Failure Time (AFT) models were employed to investigate the timing of SCA onset. The impact of dynamic increases in TyG index and TyG-BMI levels on SCA risk was examined using restricted cubic spline. RESULTS Over a median follow-up period of 165.4 months (interquartile range 156.5-174 months), 1,622 cases of SCA were recorded. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed a 9% increase in SCA risk per standard deviation increase in TyG index (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) = 1.09, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04-1.15) and an 14% increase per standard deviation increase in TyG-BMI (aHR 1.14, 95% CI 1.09-1.2). AFT models indicated earlier median times to SCA occurrence with increasing quintiles of TyG index and TyG-BMI compared to the lowest quintile (P for trend < 0.05). SCA risk was linearly (P = 0.54) and non-linearly (P = 0.007) correlated with gradual increases in TyG index and TyG-BMI levels, respectively. Sex-stratified analyses showed stronger associations in women. CONCLUSIONS Higher TyG index and TyG-BMI levels are associated with an increased SCA risk and earlier onset, particularly in women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) is recognized as a reliable surrogate for evaluating insulin resistance and an effective predictor of cardiovascular disease. However, the link between TyG-BMI index and adverse outcomes in heart failure (HF) patients remains unclear. This study examines the correlation of the TyG-BMI index with long-term adverse outcomes in HF patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). METHODS This single-center, prospective cohort study included 823 HF patients with CHD. The TyG-BMI index was calculated as follows: ln [fasting triglyceride (mg/dL) × fasting blood glucose (mg/dL)/2] × BMI. To explore the association between the TyG-BMI index and the occurrences of all-cause mortality and HF rehospitalization, we utilized multivariate Cox regression models and restricted cubic splines with threshold analysis. RESULTS Over a follow-up period of 9.4 years, 425 patients died, and 484 were rehospitalized due to HF. Threshold analysis revealed a significant reverse "J"-shaped relationship between the TyG-BMI index and all-cause mortality, indicating a decreased risk of all-cause mortality with higher TyG-BMI index values below 240.0 (adjusted model: HR 0.90, 95% CI 0.86-0.93; Log-likelihood ratio p = 0.003). A distinct "U"-shaped nonlinear relationship was observed with HF rehospitalization, with the inflection point at 228.56 (adjusted model: below: HR 0.95, 95% CI 0.91-0.98; above: HR 1.08, 95% CI 1.03-1.13; Log-likelihood ratio p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study reveals a nonlinear association between the TyG-BMI index and both all-cause mortality and HF rehospitalization in HF patients with CHD, positioning the TyG-BMI index as a significant prognostic marker in this population.

DNA methylation mediates the effects of PM 2.5 and O 3 on ceramide metabolism: A novel mechanistic link between air pollution and insulin resistance. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 469:133864.

Abstract
Insulin resistance (IR), linked to air pollution, is an initial stage of early-onset Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). While ceramide metabolism plays an important role in IR pathogenesis, the effects of air pollution on this process and its mechanisms remain unclear. We recruited young adults aged 18-30 years to a panel study in Wuhan, China. Using personal portable devices and stationary monitoring stations, we tracked particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters≤ 2.5 µm (PM2.5) and Ozone (O3) levels. Liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC-MS) based metabolomics quantified ceramide metabolism, and Illumina Infinium Human Methylation 850 kBeadChip assay measured deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation. Linear mixed-effects models assessed relationships of air pollution with i) IR indexes, ii) ceramide metabolism, and iii) DNA methylation. Mediation analysis was subsequently performed to evaluate the potential mediating effect of DNA methylation in the association between air pollution and ceramide metabolism. PM2.5 and O3 were associated with elevated IR. Specifically, each 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 and O3 at lag0-12 h significantly increased triglyceride‑glucose index (TyG index) and TyG-BMI (TyG - Body mass index) by 0.88%, 0.89% and 0.26%, 0.26%, respectively. Furthermore, levels of eight ceramides were altered by air pollution exposure, and nine methylated CpG sites in inflammation genes mediated the effects of air pollution on ceramide metabolism. Our findings imply the existence of a novel mechanism connecting air pollution to IR.

Association of non-insulin-based insulin resistance indices with disease severity and adverse outcome in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension: a multi-center cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:154. [PMID: 38702735 PMCID: PMC11069206 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02236-9] [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: 01/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) plays an important role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease. Recent studies have shown that diabetes mellitus and impaired lipid metabolism are associated with the severity and prognosis of idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH). However, the relationship between IR and pulmonary hypertension is poorly understood. This study explored the association between four IR indices and IPAH using data from a multicenter cohort. METHODS A total of 602 consecutive participants with IPAH were included in this study between January 2015 and December 2022. The metabolic score for IR (METS-IR), triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio, triglyceride and glucose (TyG) index, and triglyceride-glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) were used to quantify IR levels in patients with IPAH. The correlation between non-insulin-based IR indices and long-term adverse outcomes was determined using multivariate Cox regression models and restricted cubic splines. RESULTS During a mean of 3.6 years' follow-up, 214 participants experienced all-cause death or worsening condition. Compared with in low to intermediate-low risk patients, the TG/HDL-C ratio (2.9 ± 1.7 vs. 3.3 ± 2.1, P = 0.003) and METS-IR (34.5 ± 6.7 vs. 36.4 ± 7.5, P < 0.001) were significantly increased in high to intermediate-high risk patients. IR indices correlated with well-validated variables that reflected the severity of IPAH, such as the cardiac index and stroke volume index. Multivariate Cox regression analyses indicated that the TyG-BMI index (hazard ratio [HR] 1.179, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.020, 1.363 per 1.0-standard deviation [SD] increment, P = 0.026) and METS-IR (HR 1.169, 95% CI 1.016, 1.345 per 1.0-SD increment, P = 0.030) independently predicted adverse outcomes. Addition of the TG/HDL-C ratio and METS-IR significantly improved the reclassification and discrimination ability beyond the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) risk score. CONCLUSIONS IR is associated with the severity and long-term prognosis of IPAH. TyG-BMI and METS-IR can independently predict clinical worsening events, while METS-IR also provide incremental predictive performance beyond the ESC risk stratification.

The prognostic impact of insulin resistance surrogates in patients with acute myocardial infarction with and without type 2 diabetes. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:147. [PMID: 38685054 PMCID: PMC11059609 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02240-z] [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: 10/31/2023] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Novel markers of insulin resistance and progression of atherosclerosis include the triglycerides and glucose index (TyG index), the triglycerides and body mass index (Tyg-BMI) and the metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR). Establishing independent risk factors for in-hospital death and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) remains critical. The aim of the study was to assess the risk of in-hospital death and MACCE within 12 months after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in patients with and without T2DM based on TyG index, Tyg-BMI and METS-IR. METHODS Retrospective analysis included 1706 patients with STEMI and NSTEMI hospitalized between 2013 and 2021. We analyzed prognostic value of TyG index, Tyg-BMI and METS-IR for in-hospital death and MACCE as its components (death from any cause, MI, stroke, revascularization) within 12 months after STEMI or NSTEMI in patients with and without T2DM. RESULTS Of 1706 patients, 58 in-hospital deaths were reported (29 patients [4.3%] in the group with T2DM and 29 patients [2.8%] in the group without T2DM; p = 0.1). MACCE occurred in 18.9% of the total study population (25.8% in the group with T2DM and 14.4% in the group without T2DM; p < 0.001). TyG index, Tyg-BMI and METS-IR were significantly higher in the group of patients with T2DM compared to those without T2DM (p < 0.001). Long-term MACCE were more prevalent in patients with T2DM (p < 0.001). The area under the ROC curve (AUC-ROC) for the prediction of in-hospital death and the TyG index was 0.69 (p < 0.001). The ROC curve for predicting in-hospital death based on METS-IR was 0.682 (p < 0.001). The AUC-ROC values for MACCE prediction based on the TyG index and METS-IR were 0.582 (p < 0.001) and 0.57 (p < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS TyG index was an independent risk factor for in-hospital death in patients with STEMI or NSTEMI. TyG index, TyG-BMI and METS-IR were not independent risk factors for MACCE at 12 month follow-up. TyG index and METS-IR have low predictive value in predicting MACCE within 12 months after STEMI and NSTEMI.

J Ovarian Res 2024; 17:90. [PMID: 38671507 PMCID: PMC11055342 DOI: 10.1186/s13048-024-01416-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive disorder that frequently affects fertility. The TyG-BMI (Triglyceride glucose-body mass) index is a newly explored parameter that may be linked to reproductive results in individuals with PCOS. Nevertheless, its connection with outcomes in In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) procedures remains uncertain. METHODS This study included a total of 966 females who underwent IVF treatments for PCOS. At the baseline, the participants were categorized into four groups according to the quartiles of TyG-BMI measured prior to oocyte retrieval. Subsequently, the study compared the differences in clinical and laboratory outcomes among these four groups. RESULTS Patients in higher TyG-BMI quartiles exhibited a decreased number of retrieved oocytes, 2PN embryos, and available/high-quality embryos (P < 0.05 for Q1-Q4). Additionally, the multivariable regression analysis revealed that individuals in the top quartile of TyG-BMI had a lower count of accessible embryos (β = -0.224, P = 0.257) and a decreased number of high-quality embryos (β = -0.352, P = 0.028) in comparison to those in the lowest quartile. Nevertheless, there were no notable variances detected in the rates of pregnancy or live births among these quartiles. Furthermore, a linear correlation was noted between the TyG-BMI index and the quantity of accessible embryos (P-non-linear = 0.6, P-overall < 0.001), along with high-quality embryos (P-nonlinear = 0.026, P-overall = 0.006). In contrast, there was no notable linear correlation found between the TyG-BMI index and the available embryo rate (P-nonlinear = 0.60, P-overall = 0.8). CONCLUSIONS The results of this research emphasize the notable correlation between TyG-BMI and IVF results in females diagnosed with PCOS. The interplay of insulin resistance and disorders of lipid metabolism may indeed play a pivotal role in influencing the assisted reproductive outcomes of patients with PCOS. Considering these findings, TyG-BMI proves to be a valuable indicator for exploring this potential association.

Huang Y, Li Z, Yin X. Long-term survival in stroke patients: insights into triglyceride-glucose body mass index from ICU data. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:137. [PMID: 38664780 PMCID: PMC11046846 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02231-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Triglyceride Glucose-Body Mass Index (TyG-BMI) has been established as a robust indicator of insulin resistance (IR), reflecting metabolic health across various populations. In general, lower TyG-BMI values are often associated with better metabolic health outcomes and a reduced risk of adverse health events in non-critically ill populations. Previous studies have highlighted a significant negative association between TyG-BMI and all-cause mortality (ACM) among critically ill atrial fibrillation patients. Given the high prevalence and severe outcomes associated with stroke, understanding how TyG-BMI at the time of ICU admission correlates with ACM in critically ill stroke patients becomes imperative. This study aims to assess the correlation between TyG-BMI and ACM in this specific patient cohort, exploring how traditional associations between TyG-BMI and metabolic health may differ in the context of acute, life-threatening illness. METHODS Patient data were retrieved by accessing the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV 2.2) database, categorizing patients into three groups on the basis of TyG-BMI tertiles. The study evaluated both primary and secondary outcomes: the primary outcomes included the 90-day, 180-day, and 1-year ACM, while secondary outcomes encompassed ICU, in-hospital, and 30-day ACM. Our study employed the Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curve method for outcome comparison across the groups while utilizing multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression models and restricted cubic splines (RCS) to explore TyG-BMI association with these outcomes. Additionally, interaction and subgroup analyses were performed, focusing on different mortality time points. RESULTS Among a cohort of 1707 individuals diagnosed with stroke, the average age was 68 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 58-78 years), with 946 (55.42%) of the participants being male. The analysis of K-M curves suggested that patients having a lower TyG-BMI level faced a heightened risk of long-term ACM, whereas the short-term ACM exhibited no statistically significant differences across the three TyG-BMI groups. Furthermore, Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis validated a statistically significant increased risk of long-term ACM among patients belonging to the lowest TyG-BMI tertile. Additionally, RCS analysis results demonstrated L-shaped correlations between the TyG-BMI index and both short- and long-term ACM. These findings underscore the TyG-BMI predictive value for long-term mortality in stroke patients, highlighting a nuanced relationship that varies over different time frames. The results revealed no interactions between TyG-BMI and the stratified variables, with the exception of age. CONCLUSION In our study, lower TyG-BMI levels in critically ill stroke patients are significantly related to a higher risk of long-term ACM within the context of the United States. This finding suggests the potential of TyG-BMI as a marker for stratifying long-term risk in this patient population. However, it's crucial to note that this association was not observed for short-term ACM, indicating that the utility of TyG-BMI may be more pronounced in long-term outcome prediction. Additionally, our conclusion that TyG-BMI could serve as a reliable indicator for managing and stratifying stroke patients over the long term is preliminary. To confirm our findings and assess the universal applicability of TyG-BMI as a prognostic tool, it is crucial to conduct rigorously designed research across various populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been determined to play a role in the onset of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Whether the TyG index and TyG with the combination of obesity indicators are associated with the clinical outcomes of the MetS population remains unknown. METHOD Participants were extracted from multiple cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 1999 and 2018 years. Three indicators were constructed including TyG index, TyG combining with waist circumference (TyG-WC), and TyG combining with waist-to-height ratio (TyG-WHtR). The MetS was defined according to the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCPE) Adult Treatment Panel III. Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves, restricted cubic splines (RCS), and the Cox proportional hazard model were used to evaluate the associations between TyG-related indices and mortality of the MetS population. The sensitive analyses were performed to check the robustness of the main findings. RESULTS There were 10,734 participants with MetS included in this study, with 5,570 females and 5,164 males. The median age of the study population was 59 years old. The multivariate Cox regression analyses showed high levels of TyG-related indices were significantly associated with the all-cause mortality of MetS population [TyG index: adjustedhazard ratio (aHR): 1.36, 95%confidence interval (CI): 1.18-1.56, p < 0.001; TyG-WHtR index: aHR = 1.29, 95%CI: 1.13-1.47, p < 0.001]. Meanwhile, the TyG-WC and TyG-WHtR index were associated with cardiovascular mortality of the MetS population (TyG-WC: aHR = 1.45, 95%CI: 1.13-1.85, p = 0.004; TyG-WHtR: aHR = 1.50 95%CI: 1.17-1.92, p = 0.002). Three TyG-related indices showed consistent significant correlations with diabetes mortality (TyG: aHR = 4.06, 95%CI: 2.81-5.87, p < 0.001; TyG-WC: aHR = 2.55, 95%CI: 1.82-3.58, p < 0.001; TyG-WHtR: aHR = 2.53 95%CI: 1.81-3.54, p < 0.001). The RCS curves showed a non-linear trend between TyG and TyG-WC indices with all-cause mortality (p for nonlinearity = 0.004 and 0.001, respectively). The sensitive analyses supported the positive correlations between TyG-related indices with mortality of the MetS population. CONCLUSION Our study highlights the clinical value of TyG-related indices in predicting the survival of the MetS population. TyG-related indices would be the surrogate biomarkers for the follow-up of the MetS population.

Abstract
Background Fatty liver disease (FLD) is a common comorbidity of psoriasis and is often referred to as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the role of inflammation or insulin resistance (IR) in FLD is inconclusive. The study aims to explore whether FLD in psoriasis patients is more related to insulin resistance or systemic inflammation level. Methods Data for this study were collected from the Shanghai Psoriasis Effectiveness Evaluation Cohort, a prospective cohort that examines psoriasis characteristics in the Chinese population. IR was assessed using the triglyceride glucose (TyG) and TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI) indicators. Systemic non-specific inflammation was assessed using the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR), and systemic immune inflammation index (SII). Results The analysis included a total of 647 patients. Subsequent logistic regression analysis revealed that NLR, dNLR, and SII were not significantly associated with FLD in psoriasis patients, while TyG and TyG-BMI showed significant associations with FLD. Subgroup analysis indicated that in the majority of subgroups, TyG and TyG-BMI were significantly associated with FLD, particularly TyG-BMI. Excluding individuals with methotrexate and acitretin resulted in consistent findings with the main analysis. Further analysis revealed a significantly higher diagnosis rate of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) compared to NAFLD. Conclusions Metabolic factors play a crucial role in FLD in patients with psoriasis, and TyG and TyG-BMI are potential predictors of FLD. Therefore, MAFLD can be recommend as a term to describe FLD in psoriasis patients. Trial registration https://www.chictr.org.cn/showproj.html?proj=58256, identifier ChiCTR2000036186.

The impact of triglyceride glucose-body mass index on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus: evidence from NHANES 2007-2016. BMC Geriatr 2024; 24:356. [PMID: 38649828 PMCID: PMC11034154 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-024-04992-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) index and mortality in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are still unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between TyG-BMI with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among elderly DM patients in the United States (US). METHODS Patients aged over 60 years with DM from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2007-2016) were included in this study. The study endpoints were all-cause and cardiovascular mortality and the morality data were extracted from the National Death Index (NDI) which records up to December 31, 2019. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to explore the association between TyG-BMI index with mortality. Restricted cubic spline was used to model nonlinear relationships. RESULTS A total of 1363 elderly diabetic patients were included, and were categorized into four quartiles. The mean age was 70.0 ± 6.8 years, and 48.6% of them were female. Overall, there were 429 all-cause deaths and 123 cardiovascular deaths were recorded during a median follow-up of 77.3 months. Multivariate Cox regression analyses indicated that compared to the 1st quartile (used as the reference), the 3rd quartile demonstrated a significant association with all-cause mortality (model 2: HR = 0.64, 95% CI 0.46-0.89, P = 0.009; model 3: HR = 0.65, 95% CI 0.43-0.96, P = 0.030). Additionally, the 4th quartile was significantly associated with cardiovascular mortality (model 2: HR = 1.83, 95% CI 1.01-3.30, P = 0.047; model 3: HR = 2.45, 95% CI 1.07-5.57, P = 0.033). The restricted cubic spline revealed a U-shaped association between TyG-BMI index with all-cause mortality and a linear association with cardiovascular mortality, after adjustment for possible confounding factors. CONCLUSIONS A U-shaped association was observed between the TyG-BMI index with all-cause mortality and a linear association was observed between the TyG-BMI index with cardiovascular mortality in elderly patients with DM in the US population.

Assessing the predictive value of insulin resistance indices for metabolic syndrome risk in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Sci Rep 2024; 14:8917. [PMID: 38632455 PMCID: PMC11024148 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-59659-3] [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: 10/31/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Limited research has explored the effectiveness of insulin resistance (IR) in forecasting metabolic syndrome (MetS) risk, especially within the Iranian population afflicted with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The present investigation aimed to assess the efficacy of IR indices in predicting the risk of MetS among T2DM patients. Convenient sampling was utilized to select four hundred subjects with T2DM. Metabolic factors and IR indices, including the Waist Circumference-Triglyceride Index (WTI), Triglyceride and Glucose Index (TyG index), the product of TyG index and abdominal obesity indices, and the Metabolic Score for Insulin Resistance (METS-IR), were evaluated. Logistic regression, coupled with modeling, was employed to explore the risk of MetS. The predictive performance of the indices for MetS stratified by sex was evaluated via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and estimation of the area under the curve (AUC) values. The TyG-Waist Circumference (TyG-WC) index exhibited the largest AUCs in both males (0.91) and females (0.93), while the TyG-Body Mass Index (TyG-BMI) demonstrated the smallest AUCs (0.77 in males and 0.74 in females). All indices significantly predicted the risk of MetS in all subjects before and after adjustment (p < 0.001 for all). The TyG-WC index demonstrated the highest odds ratios for MetS (8.06, 95% CI 5.41-12.00). In conclusion, all IR indices assessed in this study effectively predicted the risk of MetS among Iranian patients with T2DM, with the TyG-WC index emerging as the most robust predictor across both genders.

Eur J Med Res 2024; 29:214. [PMID: 38566247 PMCID: PMC10985901 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-024-01820-9] [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: 02/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride and glucose-waist circumference (TyG-WC) index demonstrated a strong association with insulin resistance, especially in Asian population. However, evidence on the association between TyG-WC index and the occurrence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is limited. This study aimed to verify association between the TyG-WC index and the occurrence of CVD by considering all-cause mortality as a competing risk. METHODS The study included 7482 participants divided into four groups based on the TyG-WC index quartiles. Kaplan-Meier curves illustrated cumulative incidence rates of CVD and all-cause mortality during the follow-up period. Log-rank tests determined group differences. The Cox proportional hazard spline curve demonstrates the dose-dependent relationship between the TyG-WC index and incident CVD. Modified Cox regression (Fine and Gray) estimated hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% CIs for incident CVD, treating death as a competing risk. Death event after incident CVD was excluded from the death count. RESULTS During the median 15.94 year of follow-up period, a total of 691 (9.24%) new-onset CVD cases and 562 (7.51%) all-cause mortality cases were confirmed. Cox proportional hazard spline curves suggested that TyG-WC index exhibited a dose-dependent positive correlation with incident CVD. The cumulative incidence rate of CVD was significantly higher in the groups with higher TyG-WC index quartiles in Kaplan-Meier curves. The adjusted HR (95% CI) for incident CVD in Q2-Q4, compared with Q1, was 1.47 (1.12-1.93), 1.91 (1.44-2.54) and 2.24 (1.63-3.07), respectively. There was no significant association between TyG-WC index and all-cause mortality. Specifically, angina and stroke were significantly associated with the TyG-WC index, in contrast to myocardial infarction and peripheral artery disease. CONCLUSIONS The TyG-WC index was positively associated with incident CVD even considering all-cause mortality as a competing risk. Therefore, TyG-WC index may be a valuable marker for predicting the occurrence of CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Measures of insulin resistance (IR)/sensitivity (IS) are emerging tools to identify metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). However, the comprehensive assessment of the performance of various indicators is limited. Moreover, the utility of measures of IR/IS in detecting liver fibrosis remains unclear. AIMS To evaluate the predictive ability of seventeen IR/IS and two beta cell function indices to identify MAFLD and liver fibrosis. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on individuals aged 25-75 years. Transient elastography was used to estimate liver stiffness and controlled attenuation parameter. The following measures were computed: homeostatic model assessment (HOMA/HOMA2) for IR, IS, and beta cell function; QUICKI; Bennett index; glucose/insulin; FIRI; McAuley index; Reynaud index; SPISE index; TyG; TyG-BMI; TyG-WC; TyG-WHtR; TG/HDL; and METS-IR. Subgroup analyses were performed according to age, gender, diabetes status, and body weight. RESULTS A total of 644 individuals were included in our analysis. MAFLD and significant liver fibrosis were detected in 320 (49.7%) and 80 (12.4%) of the participants, respectively. All measures of IR/IS identified MAFLD and liver fibrosis. However, TyG-WC, TyG-BMI, and TyG-WHtR were the top three indicators that identified MAFLD. Measures that include insulin level in their mathematical calculation, namely, Raynaud index, HOMA-IR, HOMA 2-IR, FIRI, and QUICKI had the best performance in identifying liver fibrosis in the entire population, as well as among the study subgroups. CONCLUSIONS TyG-WC, TyG-BMI, and TyG-WHtR were the best predictors of MAFLD. Insulin-based measures had better performances in the detection of advanced fibrosis. This was independent of age, gender, obesity, or diabetes status.

Predictive value of insulin resistance surrogates for the development of diabetes in individuals with baseline normoglycemia: findings from two independent cohort studies in China and Japan. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2024; 16:68. [PMID: 38491516 PMCID: PMC10943817 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-024-01307-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) plays a crucial role in the occurrence and progression of diabetes. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the predictive value of four IR surrogates, including the triglycerides glucose (TyG) index, TyG and body mass index (TyG-BMI), triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio, and the metabolic score for IR (MetS-IR) for diabetes in two large cohorts. METHODS A total of 116,661 adult participants from the China Rich Healthcare Group and 15,464 adult participants from the Japanese NAGALA cohort were included in the study. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the standardized hazard ratio (HR) of the TyG index, TyG-BMI, TG/HDL-C ratio, and MetS-IR directly associated with diabetes. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and time-dependent ROC curve analysis were performed to evaluate and compare the predictive value of the four IR surrogates for diabetes. RESULTS In the two independent cohorts, the average follow-up time was 3.1 years in the China cohort, with 2681(2.30%) incident cases of diabetes recorded, and 6.13 years in the Japan cohort, with 373 incident cases (2.41%) of diabetes recorded. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, we found that among the four IR surrogates, TyG-BMI and MetS-IR showed stronger associations with diabetes. The stronger associations persisted even after further stratification by age, sex, hypertension, and obese subgroups. In terms of diabetes prediction, based on ROC analysis, TyG-BMI demonstrated the highest predictive accuracy for diabetes in the Chinese population, while both TyG-BMI and MetS-IR showed the highest predictive accuracy in the Japanese population. The results of further subgroup ROC analysis confirmed the robustness of these findings. Furthermore, the time-dependent ROC results indicated that among the four IR surrogates, MetS-IR exhibited the highest accuracy in predicting future diabetes at various time intervals in the Japanese population. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that evaluating TyG-BMI and MetS-IR as IR surrogates may be the most useful for predicting diabetes events and assessing the risk of developing diabetes in East Asian populations.

Abstract
Objective The incidence of early-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) has increased significantly, with insulin resistance (IR) and obesity being the main drivers of its onset. This study aims to investigate the clinical characteristics of early-onset T2D and its association with triglyceride glucose body mass index (TyG-BMI), an emerging surrogate of IR. Methods A total of 1000 adults newly diagnosed with T2D were enrolled and divided into early-onset T2D (18~40 years, N=500) and late-onset T2D groups (≥40 years, N=500). Independent t and chi-squared tests were used to compare the characteristics of the two groups, and logistic regression analysis, trend tests, restricted cubic spline curves (RCSs), and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to identify the relationship between TyG-BMI and early-onset T2D. Results Patients with early-onset T2D were more likely to have a higher body mass index (BMI), hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), serum uric acid (SUA), triglyceride glucose index (TyG), and TyG-BMI (P < 0.05). A higher TyG-BMI was associated with an increased risk of early-onset T2D (P < 0.001). The RCSs showed a nonlinear relationship between TyG-BMI and early-onset T2D, and the slope of the curve increased with an increase in TyG-BMI (P for nonlinearity < 0.001). In the subgroup analysis, additive interactions between TyG-BMI and the risk of early-onset T2D were observed for sex, family history of diabetes, BMI, fatty liver, and hypertension (P < 0.001). ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of TyG-BMI was 0.6781, which was larger than its main components (TyG, BMI, FPG, TG). The best cutoff value was 254.865, the sensitivity was 74.6%, and the specificity was 53.6%. Conclusion Patients with early-onset T2D are characterized by severe IR, metabolic disorders, and being overweight/obese and an increase in TyG-BMI is independently associated with an increased risk of early-onset T2D.

Relative importance of triglyceride glucose index combined with body mass index in predicting recovery from prediabetic state to normal fasting glucose: a cohort analysis based on a Chinese physical examination population. Lipids Health Dis 2024; 23:71. [PMID: 38459527 PMCID: PMC10921811 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-024-02060-w] [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: 01/17/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prediabetes is a high-risk state for diabetes, and numerous studies have shown that the body mass index (BMI) and triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index play significant roles in risk prediction for blood glucose metabolism. This study aims to evaluate the relative importance of BMI combination with TyG index (TyG-BMI) in predicting the recovery from prediabetic status to normal blood glucose levels. METHODS A total of 25,397 prediabetic subjects recruited from 32 regions across China. Normal fasting glucose (NFG), prediabetes, and diabetes were defined referring to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria. After normalizing the independent variables, the impact of TyG-BMI on the recovery or progression of prediabetes was analyzed through the Cox regression models. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was utilized to visualize and compare the predictive value of TyG-BMI and its constituent components in prediabetes recovery/progression. RESULTS During the average observation period of 2.96 years, 10,305 individuals (40.58%) remained in the prediabetic state, 11,278 individuals (44.41%) recovered to NFG, and 3,814 individuals (15.02%) progressed to diabetes. The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that TyG-BMI was negatively associated with recovery from prediabetes to NFG and positively associated with progression from prediabetes to diabetes. Further ROC analysis revealed that TyG-BMI had higher impact and predictive value in predicting prediabetes recovering to NFG or progressing to diabetes in comparison to the TyG index and BMI. Specifically, the TyG-BMI threshold for predicting prediabetes recovery was 214.68, while the threshold for predicting prediabetes progression was 220.27. Additionally, there were significant differences in the relationship of TyG-BMI with prediabetes recovering to NFG or progressing to diabetes within age subgroups. In summary, TyG-BMI is more suitable for assessing prediabetes recovery or progression in younger populations (< 45 years old). CONCLUSIONS This study, for the first time, has revealed the significant impact and predictive value of the TyG index in combination with BMI on the recovery from prediabetic status to normal blood glucose levels. From the perspective of prediabetes intervention, maintaining TyG-BMI within the threshold of 214.68 holds crucial significance.
