Association of triglyceride-glucose index with risk of stroke and all-cause mortality in individuals with diabetes

Key Points

• Higher triglyceride-glucose index is linked to an increased risk of stroke in individuals with diabetes, highlighting its potential as a predictive marker.
• Individuals with elevated TyG index showed a significant increase in all-cause mortality, suggesting the index’s value in assessing long-term health risks.
• Analysis involved adults with diabetes, utilizing baseline TyG to determine associations with incident stroke and mortality outcomes.
