Aims: The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and hypertension (HTN) are established risk factors of CVD. However, there is a dearth of studies investigating the synergistic influence of the elevated TyG index and HTN on CVD risk, as well as any potential interaction between these factors.

Method: For this investigation, we enlisted 88,384 individuals from the Kailuan Study who did not have a history of stroke, myocardial infarction, or cancer at baseline. Incidences of CVD between 2006 and 2021 were confirmed through a thorough review of medical records. Participants were categorized into 6 groups according to BP status(normal/elevated BP, stage 1 and stage 2) or the TyG index(low and elevated group), respectively. The Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to assess the association of BP status and TyG index with incident CVD. The multiplicative and additive interactions were also determined.

Results: Following a mean follow-up period of 13.66 ± 3.24 years, incidents of CVD, MI, and stroke were observed in 8,205, 1,728, and 6,705 individuals, respectively. The BP category and TyG index additively increased the risk of CVD, MI and stroke. There were significant interacting and joint effects of TyG index and BP status on CVD risk. Additionally, stratification analysis further confirmed that the relative contribution of hypertension to the CVD development decreased with deteriorating TyG index and that of TyG index was attenuated with increasing BP status.

Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that a significant interaction between TyG index and BP status on the risk of CVD.

Medical Big Data Center, Department of General Medicine, The Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Suzhou Municipal Hospital, No. 26 Daoqian Street, Suzhou, 215001, Jiangsu, China.

Background: Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) related indices, which serve as simple markers for insulin resistance, have been closely linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and mortality. However, the prognostic utility of TyG-related indices in predicting the risk of CVD and mortality among patients with MASLD remains unclear.

Methods: Data of 97,331 MASLD patients, with a median age of 58.

Background: Insulin resistance proxy indicators are significantly associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes. However, the correlations between the estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR) index and CVD and its subtypes have yet to be thoroughly researched.

Methods: 10,690 respondents with diabetes and prediabetes from the NHANES 1999-2016 were enrolled in the study.

Triglyceride-glucose index: carotid intima-media thickness and cardiovascular risk in a European population.

Cardiovasc Diabetol

Centro E. Grossi Paoletti, Dipartimento di Scienze Farmacologiche e Biomolecolari "Rodolfo Paoletti", Università degli Studi di Milano, Milano, Italy.

Background: The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is now widely recognized as a marker of insulin resistance and has been linked to the development and prognosis of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) in numerous populations, particularly in the Eastern world. Although there are fewer reports from the Western world, and they are sometimes contradictory, the absence of definitive data on the relationship between a raised TyG index and cardiovascular risk suggested the opportunity of testing this biochemical marker against a well-established vascular marker such as the carotid intima media thickness (c-IMT).

Methods: Primary prevention patients were selected from a cohort of individuals who underwent c-IMT measurement between 1984 and 2018 at the Dyslipidemia Center at the ASST Grande Ospedale Metropolitano Niguarda in Milan, Italy.

Background: Depression and cognitive impairments are prevalent among older adults, with evidence suggesting potential links to obesity and lipid metabolism disturbances. This study investigates the relationships between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, body mass index (BMI), depression, and cognitive dysfunction in older adults, leveraging data from the NHANES survey and employing machine learning techniques.

Methods: We analysed 1352 participants aged 60-79 from the 2011-2014 NHANES dataset, who underwent cognitive function testing, depression assessments, and TyG index measurements.

Objective: To explore the association between triglyceride glucose index (TyG) and hypertension under different diagnostic thresholds.

Methods: This study analyzed data from routine occupational health examinations conducted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University in 2019. TyG and TyG-BMI, indicators of insulin resistance (IR), were calculated using triglyceride (TG), fasting blood glucose (FPG), and body mass index (BMI).
