Does a higher triglyceride glucose (TyG) index predict adverse clinical outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction and LDL-C ≤1.8 mmol/L who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention?
The TyG index can serve as a predictive indicator for adverse cardiovascular outcomes in AMI patients with well-controlled LDL-C after PCI.
A higher TyG index was associated with a higher incidence of MACCEs in patients with AMI and well-controlled LDL-C levels after PCI. This suggests that the TyG index can serve as a predictive indicator for adverse cardiovascular outcomes in these patients.
Zhao et al. (Thu,) studied this question.
