Implication

Retrospective cohort study finds a U-shaped relationship between triglyceride glucose index and diabetes risk in MASLD adults, suggesting critical thresholds for intervention.

Key Points

Elevated triglyceride glucose index increases diabetes risk significantly, with a hazard ratio of 1.48.
A U-shaped relationship was observed, where low and high TyG-i levels correlate with T2D risk.
Cox proportional hazards regression models effectively estimated the association between TyG-i and diabetes onset.
Findings highlight the importance of maintaining optimal TyG-i levels to reduce diabetes risk for patients with MASLD.
