Key Points

To assess the relationship between the TyG index and J-CTO score in chronic total occlusion patients.
Evaluated TyG index and J-CTO score in patients with chronic total occlusion.
Analyzed data to determine correlations between high TyG index and J-CTO outcomes.
High TyG index significantly correlates with elevated J-CTO score.
TyG index identified as an independent risk factor for predicting revascularization needs.

Abstract

This study is the first to demonstrate that a high TyG index is an independent risk factor for an elevated J-CTO score. It suggests that the TyG index may serve as a significant biomarker for predicting the need for revascularization and for long-term prognostic evaluation.
