Why the study?
The triglyceride glucose index is associated with poor cardiovascular prognosis, but its utility to predict coronary in-stent restenosis has not been determined.
Does the triglyceride glucose index (TGI) predict coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR) in non-diabetic patients with stable coronary artery disease?
Does the triglyceride glucose index (TGI) predict coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR) in non-diabetic patients with stable coronary artery disease?
TGI was associated with ISR in non-diabetic stable CAD; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before clinical adoption.
The triglyceride glucose index (TGI) is associated with poor prognosis in cardiovascular disease. The usefulness of TGI to predict coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR) has not been determined. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between TGI and ISR in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing angiography.
