Key result
An elevated triglyceride-glucose index was independently associated with a blunted decline in night-time blood pressure (β -0.55) and delayed heart rate recovery in patients with normoglycemic primary hypertension.

May link TyG index and heart rate recovery to BP circadian patterns in normoglycemic hypertension; hypothesis-generating, requires prospective validation before clinical use.

Doğanay et al. (2023) conducted an observational in Normoglycemic primary hypertension (n=254). Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index vs. Lower TyG index was evaluated on Decline in night-time blood pressure (%) (β -0.55, 95% CI -0.95 to -0.15, p=<0.001). An elevated triglyceride-glucose index was independently associated with a blunted decline in night-time blood pressure (β -0.55) and delayed heart rate recovery in patients with normoglycemic primary hypertension.
