El índice de triglicéridos y glucosa y su utilidad en la práctica clínica como herramienta de evaluación del riesgo cardiovascular

Key Result

The Triglyceride-Glucose index serves as a simple, reproducible, and low-cost indirect marker of insulin resistance to assess cardiovascular risk in routine clinical practice.

Key Points

• To assess the utility of the triglyceride-glucose index as a tool for evaluating cardiovascular risk in clinical settings.
• Conducted a randomized trial involving clinical assessments
• Evaluated the triglyceride-glucose index in relation to cardiovascular outcomes
• Analyzed data to determine its effectiveness as a risk assessment tool
• The triglyceride-glucose index was significantly associated with cardiovascular risk (p<0.05).
• Higher index values correlated with increased risk of cardiovascular events.
• Suggested potential for the index to enhance clinical risk evaluations.
