The association between different insulin resistance indexes and bone health in the elderly.

The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and its related indexes (TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR) are effective markers for screening metabolic diseases like insulin resistance (IR). However, few studies have explored the relationship between the TyG and its related indexes with bone density (BMD), osteopenia, and osteoporosis. This is a cross-sectional study that involved 1,303 adults aged 50 years and above from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007-2010, and 2013-2014.
