Association between Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) Index and Risk of Stroke Recurrence and Mortality: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (P4-5.001)

Key Result

A high triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index was evaluated for its association with stroke recurrence and mortality in patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.

Key Points

• This research aims to investigate the relationship between high triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index levels and the likelihood of stroke recurrence and mortality in individuals with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.
• Conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis
• Included studies on ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack
• Analyzed data to identify the association between TyG index and stroke outcomes.
• High TyG index correlates with increased risk of stroke recurrence and mortality
• The analysis revealed a significant association with an increased hazard ratio (HR) for recurrence
• Mortality risk was also significantly higher in patients with elevated TyG index levels.
