Metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR) predicts all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the general population: evidence from NHANES 2001-2018. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:243. [PMID: 38987779 PMCID: PMC11238348 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02334-8] [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: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of obesity-associated insulin resistance (IR) is increasing along with the increase in obesity rates. In this study, we compared the predictive utility of four alternative indexes of IR [triglyceride glucose index (TyG index), metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR), the triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR)] for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in the general population based on key variables screened by the Boruta algorithm. The aim was to find the best replacement index of IR. METHODS In this study, 14,653 participants were screened from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2001-2018). And TyG index, METS-IR, TG/HDL-C and HOMA-IR were calculated separately for each participant according to the given formula. The predictive values of IR replacement indexes for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in the general population were assessed. RESULTS Over a median follow-up period of 116 months, a total of 2085 (10.23%) all-cause deaths and 549 (2.61%) cardiovascular disease (CVD) related deaths were recorded. Multivariate Cox regression and restricted cubic splines analysis showed that among the four indexes, only METS-IR was significantly associated with both all-cause and CVD mortality, and both showed non-linear associations with an approximate "U-shape". Specifically, baseline METS-IR lower than the inflection point (41.33) was negatively associated with mortality [hazard ratio (HR) 0.972, 95% CI 0.950-0.997 for all-cause mortality]. In contrast, baseline METS-IR higher than the inflection point (41.33) was positively associated with mortality (HR 1.019, 95% CI 1.011-1.026 for all-cause mortality and HR 1.028, 95% CI 1.014-1.043 for CVD mortality). We further stratified the METS-IR and showed that significant associations between METS-IR levels and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality were predominantly present in the nonelderly population aged < 65 years. CONCLUSIONS In conjunction with the results of the Boruta algorithm, METS-IR demonstrated a more significant association with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the U.S. population compared to the other three alternative IR indexes (TyG index, TG/HDL-C and HOMA-IR), particularly evident in individuals under 65 years old.

The association between triglyceride-glucose index and the likelihood of cardiovascular disease in the U.S. population of older adults aged ≥ 60 years: a population-based study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:151. [PMID: 38702717 PMCID: PMC11067197 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02248-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the general elderly population in the United States aged 60 and above is not well understood. The objective of our study was to examine the relationship between the TyG index and CVD likelihood in the general elderly population over 60 years of age in the United States. METHODS Data for this cross-sectional study were sourced from the 2003-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Weighted multivariable regression analysis and subgroup analysis were conducted to estimate the independent relationship between the TyG index and the likelihood of CVD. Non-linear correlations were explored using restricted cubic splines. RESULTS A total of 6502 participants were included, with a mean TyG index of 8.75 ± 0.01. The average prevalence of CVD was 24.31% overall. Participants in the higher TyG quartiles showed high rates of CVD (Quartile 1: 19.91%; Quartile 2: 21.65%; Quartile 3: 23.82%; Quartile 4: 32.43%). For CVD, a possible association between the TyG index and the odds of CVD was observed. Our findings suggest a nonlinear association between the TyG index and the odds of CVD. The threshold of 8.73 for the likelihood of CVD. Interaction terms were employed to assess heterogeneities among each subgroup, revealing a significant difference specifically in alcohol consumption. This suggests that the positive association between the TyG index and the likelihood of CVD is dependent on the drinking status of the participants. CONCLUSION A higher TyG index is linked to an increased likelihood of CVD in US adults aged ≥ 60 years. TyG index is anticipated to emerge as a more effective metric for identifying populations at early likelihood of CVD.

Predictive factors of poor outcome and mortality among anterior ischaemic stroke patients despite successful recanalisation in China: a secondary analysis of the CAPTURE trial. BMJ Open 2023; 13:e078917.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This work aimed to analyse the risk factors for poor outcomes and mortality among patients with anterior large vessel occlusion (LVO) ischaemic stroke, despite successful recanalisation. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS This study conducted a secondary analysis among patients who underwent successful recanalisation in the CAPTURE trial. The trial took place between March 2018 and September 2020 at 21 sites in China. The CAPTURE trial enrolled patients who had an acute ischaemic stroke aged 18-80 years with LVO in anterior circulation. INTERVENTIONS Thrombectomy was immediately performed using Neurohawk or the Solitaire FR after randomisation in CAPTURE trial. Rescue treatment was available for patients with severe residual stenosis caused by atherosclerosis. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES The primary goal was to predict poor 90-day survival or mortality within 90 days post-thrombectomy. Univariate analysis, using the χ2 test or Fisher's exact test, was conducted for each selected factor. Subsequently, a multivariable analysis was performed on significant factors (p≤0.10) identified through univariate analysis using the backward selection logistic regression approach. RESULTS Among the 207 recruited patients, 79 (38.2%) exhibited poor clinical outcomes, and 26 (12.6%) died within 90 days post-thrombectomy. Multivariate analysis revealed that the following factors were significantly associated with poor 90-day survival: age ≥67 years, internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion (compared with middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion), initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ≥17 and final modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) score 2b (compared with mTICI 3). Additionally, the following factors were significantly associated with mortality 90 days post-thrombectomy: initial NIHSS score ≥17, ICA occlusion (compared with MCA occlusion) and recanalisation with more than one pass. CONCLUSIONS Age, NIHSS score, occlusion site, mTICI score and the number of passes can be independently used to predict poor 90-day survival or mortality within 90 days post-thrombectomy.

[PMID: 37993902 PMCID: PMC10666367 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-02054-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a novel indicator of insulin resistance, has been associated with mortality from coronary artery diseases, ischemic stroke, and heart failure. In recent years, much emphasis has been placed on the relationship between the TyG index and mortality in the general population. However, the impact of age on the association between TyG and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality remains controversial. This study investigated the link between the TyG index and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, emphasizing differences between older and non-older populations. METHODS Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009-2018), encompassing 20,194 participants, were analyzed. The baseline TyG index was calculated as Ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dL) × fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2]. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models with restricted cubic splines and trend tests were employed to explore the association between the TyG index and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, with emphasis on age-specific analysis. Subgroup analysis was conducted to examine whether the TyG index's association with mortality varied across different subgroups. Additionally, receiver operating characteristic curves were used to compare the predictive ability of the TyG index with the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. RESULTS Over a median follow-up period of 105 months, all-cause mortality accounted for 13.345% of cases, and cardiovascular mortality accounted for 3.387%. Kaplan-Meier curves showed a significant increase in all-cause and cardiovascular mortality with higher TyG index values (both P for log-rank test < 0.001). However, during Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, no linear trend was observed between the TyG index and all-cause or cardiovascular mortality after adjusting for confounding factors (all-cause mortality: P for trend = 0.424; cardiovascular mortality: P for trend = 0.481). Restricted cubic splines revealed a non-linear association between the baseline TyG index and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the overall population (all-cause mortality: Non-linear P = 0.003; cardiovascular mortality: Non-linear P = 0.034). The effect of the TyG index was consistent across most subgroups in terms of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, with no significant interaction with randomized factors (all-cause mortality: P for interaction = 0.077-0.940, cardiovascular mortality: P for interaction = 0.173-0.987), except for the age subgroup (all-cause mortality: P for interaction < 0.001, cardiovascular mortality: P for interaction < 0.001). Further age-specific analysis revealed that the association between the TyG index and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality remained significant in patients aged < 65 but not in those aged ≥ 65. Interestingly, a non-linear association was observed between the TyG index and all-cause mortality in individuals aged < 65 (Non-linear P = 0.011), while a linear relationship was observed with cardiovascular mortality, showing an upward trend (Non-linear P = 0.742, P for trend = 0.010). Further stratification according to age yielded similar results only in patients aged 45-64 (all-cause mortality: Non-linear P = 0.001 and cardiovascular mortality: Non-linear P = 0.902, P for trend = 0.015). Compared to HOMA-IR, the TyG index demonstrated superior predictive performance for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality (all-cause mortality: 0.620 vs. 0.524, P < 0.001; cardiovascular mortality: 0.623 vs. 0.537, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study established a significant association between the TyG index and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the general population, particularly among individuals aged < 65. Notably, a non-linear association with all-cause mortality was observed in those aged < 65, while a linear relationship with cardiovascular mortality was found.
