Assessment of Triglyceride Glucose Index in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients With and Without Cardiac Autonomic Neuropathy.

Background Cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a major complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Hyperglycaemia and hypertriglyceridemia are known risk factors in the development of CAN with T2DM. The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is calculated using both the fasting blood glucose (FBG) and fasting triglyceride levels (FTG).
