Is a greater Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index associated with a higher risk of incident heart failure and impaired left ventricular structure and function in a community-based cohort?
The Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index may serve as a useful biomarker for identifying individuals at risk of developing heart failure and left ventricular dysfunction.
In a community-based cohort, we found that a greater TyG index was significantly associated with a higher risk of incident HF and impaired LV structure and function.
