Abstract Synopsis

  • The study found that a higher triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is linked to an increased risk of arterial stiffness and coronary artery calcification (CAC), which are indicators of cardiovascular disease.
  • The analysis, which included 26 observational studies with over 87,000 participants, showed that each 1-unit increase in the TyG index raises the risk of arterial stiffness and CAC, and also contributes to the progression of CAC.
  • There is a nonlinear relationship between the TyG index and arterial stiffness, suggesting that as the TyG index increases, so does the risk, but not in a straight-line fashion; further studies are needed to determine if this relationship is causal.]
