Is an elevated triglyceride glucose (TyG) index associated with an increased risk of arterial stiffness and coronary artery calcification?
An elevated triglyceride glucose index is associated with increased arterial stiffness and coronary artery calcification, highlighting its potential as a biomarker for subclinical cardiovascular risk.
An elevated TyG index is associated with an increased risk of arterial stiffness and CAC. Prospective studies are needed to assess causality.
