Are triglyceride-glucose index trajectories associated with the risk of worsening heart failure and overall mortality in elderly patients with chronic heart failure and type 2 diabetes?
Higher baseline TyG index and a high decreasing trajectory serve as independent prognostic markers for worsening heart failure and mortality in elderly patients with concurrent HF and T2D.
During follow-up, a higher baseline level of TyG index and a high decreasing trajectory were independently associated with long-term worsening heart failure and an increased risk of overall mortality.
Lai et al. (Fri,) studied this question.
