Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome is an age-related disease characterized by the accumulation of extracellular material in many ocular structures, skin and internal organs. Recent studies have shown th...
In the present study, 50 patients with PEX syndrome who were admitted to the ophthalmology outpatient clinic were evaluated along with 50 others who made up the control group. The Triglyceride-Glucose...
The mean age was 68.2 ± 1.2 years and 61.0% of the patients were male. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of blood sugar and lipid profile (except trigly...
Results showed that the TyG index was high in patients diagnosed with PEX. The risk of vascular diseases can be determined by examining the TyG index in patients with PEX, and this predetermination wo...
Nondipper hypertensive patients have an increased incidence of damage to end organs, including the brain, heart, and kidney, and a worse cardiovascular prognosis. The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index ...
The triglycerides-glucose index (TyG) and the triglycerides to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) are simple indicators for assessing insulin resistance in epidemiological studies. We aim...
A total of 1,648 AMI patients without diabetes were enrolled from the Department of Cardiology, Zhongda Hospital, between 2012.03 and 2018.12. The medical history, laboratory and imaging data of patie...
1. In AMI group, the TyG index was significantly increased in death groups compared to no-death groups (...
TyG index and TG/HDL-C, as emerged simple markers of insulin resistance, were both important predictors of in-hospital death in AMI patients without diabetes....
The elevation of TyG is considered an important factor in promoting the progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), but its impact on the degree of liver steatosis remains unclear. This ...
From January 2021 to March 2022, 1171 participants underwent health check-ups, and all underwent FibroScan transient elastography. The analysis focused on identifying the factors that contribute to th...
The predictive value of TyG-BMI (OR = 1.039, 95% CI 1.031-1.046) in triggering NAFLD development was greater than that of TyG alone. The areas under the curve for TyG-BMI and TyG were calculated at 0....
The TyG-BMI showed higher accuracy in predicting NAFLD than did the TyG, and was more closely linked to the severity of hepatic steatosis. Therefore, it can be included as a parameter in health manage...
Background Triglyceride and glucose (TyG) index and TyG-related indices combined with obesity-related markers are considered important markers of insulin resistance. We aimed to examine the associatio...
The association between triglyceride and prostate cancer (PCa) has been reported in observational studies. However, the causality from triglyceride on PCa remained unknown....
Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) was performed with triglyceride genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from 177,861 individuals and GWAS summary statistics of PCa from 463,010 individuals. ...
Association for an effect of triglyceride on PCa risk was found in IVW (odds ratio [OR]: 1.002, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.000-1.004, p = 0.016). However, opposing results were observed using the...
The large MR analysis indicated that the potential causal effect of triglyceride on PCa. The odds of PCa would increase with high levels of triglyceride....
We aimed to discover loci associated with triglyceride (TG) levels in the context of type 2 diabetes (T2D). We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 424,120 genotyped participants of the...
We stratified the cohort based on T2D status and conducted association analyses of TG levels for genetic variants with minor allele count (MAC) at least 20 in each stratum. Effect differences of genet...
Among 21,176 T2D and 402,944 non-T2D samples from UKB, stratified GWAS identified 19 and 315 genomic risk loci significantly associated with TG levels, respectively. Only chr6p21.32 exhibited genome-w...
In conclusion, we identified an intergenic variant near HLA-DQB1/DQA2 significantly associates with decreased triglycerides only among those with T2D and highlights an immune overlap with T1D....
A newly developed technique, the Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, supplies a more straightforward method to identify IR than the HOMA-IR (Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance). Yet no m...
Between 2011 to 2014, data from the NHANES were used to conduct a nationally representative study involving 2,504 participants. LMM, LMS, and sarcopenia were the outcome variables. Moreover, this posi...
The TyG index revealed a significant correlation with the prevalence of developing LMM (OR = 1.63(1.26-2.11),...
Sarcopenia and the TyG index reveal an essential positive link. It highlights the potential utility of the TyG index as a screening tool for identifying individuals at risk of sarcopenia earlier....
Despite indisputable role of LDL-C lowering, a considerable residual risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) persists. The precise mechanism(s) underlying this phenomenon remain unclea...
Several long-term observational studies have shown a significant relationship between Rem-C and ASCVD events, compared with other triglyceride-related parameters. Recent trials have shown that lowerin...
Elevated Rem-C as a risk determinant, with LDL-C at goal, requires additional studies in clinical trials. Standardization and accuracy of Rem-C assays (calculated versus direct method) is also needed....
The wide-spread environmental pollutants per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have repeatedly been associated with elevated serum cholesterol in humans. However, underlying mechanisms are still ...
